What's on your mind?
Since this is public, I'll leave out some details. Very...recently...I had a "Mad Max" moment. I was leaving a nightlife area in...some...city...after dinner and...beverages. There's a transition to interstate with a very nice swoopy left-hander dip, a sweet little handling tester.
A group of fast sport bikes were well ahead of me and I'd let them go, as the area...appeared to be...a very good place to get busted. Yet, another two bikes came up behind me very fast after the curve, and I let one pass. Yet, he slowed and looked over at me and then hit it HARD, and instantly I thought "why not?" and lit up the Coupe, downshifting to wind out 3rd, 4th and much of 5th. We went from 70 to 140 MPH in a short stretch and I was on actually his tail the whole time, then we cruised in 6th for a bit around 140+. I used to ride sport bikes and I know how fast they are, and while I didn't have time to scope that bike, it was very quick, yet the Coupe hung with it. We slowed back down just as quickly to join the other bikes as they were getting off soon, so I bid fairwell
We all get our sport driving "moments" here and there, but in today's safetycrat feminized freakout driving world, this was truly awesome

Hi guys, I have a 2019 Genesis G70 3.3 T with 68,000 miles on it. For the last week or so I have noticed a coolant smell after a drive. The coolant reservoir is only slightly low. I wasn’t too worried about that because I had to add a touch of coolant to it last summer. Today I was driving normally when the warning light came on saying the engine was overheating and the temperature gauge was almost to the red so I pulled over and I put my hand in front of the radiator and it was blowing cool air against my hand like it wasn’t circulating the coolant properly. Right before the warning came on I noticed the air conditioner stopped blowing cold. So I had the car towed home. I’ve looked over the engine, and I cannot see any drips anywhere. Any advice would be appreciated.

As the subject says - getting attached messages after manually updating (May maps/update) the car. I let the Maps/MM OTA expire, b/c I don't mind doing this manually and I see little value in paying for it - but NOW, with this latest update, it seems to indicate that it uses online only and falls back to off-line maps only for connectivity issues... and even though (I checked) the Map OTA subscription doesn't say anything about this feature, I'm wondering - anyone else see these msgs? Or, am I the only one who let the Maps OTA subscription lapse? I _did_ dbl-check with the USB, says it's the same version as to what I have.

I’ve been looking at upgrading my older G80 to a 2026 model, and while I love almost everything about the refresh, I’m really torn on the new interior layout.
Specifically, the huge 27" OLED screen that runs across the entire dashboard.
I know the reviews are raving about it looking futuristic, but to me, it feels like Genesis is falling into the same trap as everyone else by just slapping a giant screen on the dash. I always loved how the older models had the infotainment screen beautifully recessed into the dashboard. It felt classy, minimalist, and very integrated.
This new one feels like it just sits on top of the dash like an afterthought. It doesn't feel right to me. Plus, for those who already have it, how bad is the glare on sunny days? Do you find yourself constantly wiping fingerprints off the passenger side of the glass?
Curious to hear if anyone else actually prefers the older, more traditional luxury look, or if I'm just being old fashioned.

Does anyone know how to remove the side skirt on a 2023 G80? I am having trouble with area under the doors. I have the bottom edge loose, but I do not see how to get the top edge of the skirt loose under the doors.

I am posting for my son who has a 2015 Hyundai Genesis, essentially a G80, with many shared parts.
His electrically-driven power steering has failed, and the Hyundai dealer has quoted $8,000 to replace it. That is about the value of the car if everything was working and it was sold in a private transaction! It doesn't make sense financially to put that much money into it.
He can find the part online for about $1000.
Does anyone know of a shop that will work on a Hyundai Genesis (and/or Genesis, my G90 will be out of extended warranty someday)?
The independent shops here in Tupelo, MS have more business than they know what to do with and refused to look at it for diagnosis and repair.
Thanks,
Justin

Hi. I'm usually on Genesis Owners about my 2019 G90, but today I need some help troubleshooting my son's 2015 Hyundai Genesis 3.8. The local Hyundai dealer refuses to work on it despite it being a Hyundai (they don't have the Genesis dealership) and previously selling them, as they say they've had "bad luck working on them". Same for the dealer an hour South. The dealer at which I bought my G90 has the worst customer service of ANY business I've ever done business with, despite going through a new service manager every year. I cannot get a return call (of someone on the phone) while they have my car last time for 8 of the 12 weeks they had it, and in the end, they still didn't get the trunk issue I've had since purchase fixed. So, they're not an option. The next closest is Cool Springs in South Nashville, 3.5 hours away, but just drove by them today and it looks like the shop is in a complete demolition/rebuild.
My son has tried to troubleshoot this himself by purchasing a code reader and even dropped it for a few weeks at the local import car maintenance shop, and got a call that they could not reproduce the complete lack of power steering that happens unpredictably.
He is thinking of purchasing a used electric power steering rack (he says this is the first year or two the Genesis had electric steering rather than hydraulic) and just getting the local import dealer to replace it for him.
Is intermittent failure of the electric power steering a known issue with these vehicles? If so, what are the potential causes? He has looked at the service manual documents but doesn't want to tackle it himself. He thinks it may be a network/communications problem since the steering motor works fine when it is working.
The error codes he's getting haven't been helpful.
Thanks for any help/suggestions!
Regards,
Justin

According to posters on FaceBook, a limited number of recalls on the fuel rail issue have been performed. Owners stated that they took their cars in for regular oil changes or other items, and the dealers examined, tightened and/or replaced the leaking connectors. One owner said that Genesis had contracted with SnapOn tools to make a specialized wrench for the techs to use to set the proper torque on the connections. Another stated that his leak was repaired with new parts. There is sufficient traffic in this area to believe that a solution has started to ship. If anyone has more definitive information, please share.

We replaced a 2019 Lexus UX 200! We bought it new, and was a terrific no problem car!. Hoping we get a similar experience with the Genesis! 
The UX is a nice car - but the GV70 - that's a big upgrade. Congratulations! Lexus does have a great reputation for reliability - though I've found they're always quite late to the game when it comes to technology. Probably one of the reasons their vehicles has so few issues. They want until every other brand has worked out the bugs...We replaced a 2019 Lexus UX 200! We bought it new, and was a terrific no problem car!. Hoping we get a similar experience with the Genesis!
