    Any Long Term fix for stretching seats?

    Am strongly considering 2011 4.6, but seat is stretched. I've read some threads here about this issue, and I'm hoping that I missed it, but I've not seen a response saying that the dealer fixed the problem and that the same issue had not returned. Some folks had the dealer ignore their claims...

    First Long Trip Report - '12 3.8 Track

    I drove from St. Louis to Chattanooga and back last week. Random observations: These seats are the most comfortable I have owned. I just wish for an electric seat back and memory settings. The car is surprisingly quiet at 78-80 mph/~3000 rpm. Very little wind noise and the exhaust growl was...

    Herrnstein Hyundai in Chillicothe, OH - TOTAL long shot here

    OK - consider this a long shot or some type of experiment... I'm getting ready to buy a '11 4.6 with just over 13K miles on it from Carmax in Atlanta (shipped from Chattanooga). It is Champagne w/Beige interior... I pulled the carfax and it was a personal driver and seemed to have been...

    Connecting a Battery Tender pigtail to jumper terminal box for long term charging

    Last summer we came home from a two week cruise to find our 2012 Genesis 3.8L had a dead battery. The dealer service dept confirmed that this is a common problem with this car - in fact they have the same problem with cars they have parked on their dealer lot for too long without driving them...

    My Voice Command Woes *Long Post*

    I thought it would never happen to me. The dreaded "Please Wait" command that we all know about when using voice command. Well, it happened to me. Froze my system. Locked me out of my musical bliss. I try pulling the main fuse, only to have the voice commands completely crap out. So, I take the...

    Repairs sure can take a long time

    My 2010 V6 with about 27000 miles had a fluttering engine noise at low speeds -- the noise went away above 30 mph. I took it in to the dealership and I was told that the engine needed to be replaced (under warranty of course) and that it had been ordered. That was over three weeks ago and they...

    Need tire advice for longer tread life

    I have a 2009 4.6L genesis sedan. Live in Florida. Heat and soft tires not good for wear. Replaced originals which had about 21K with Yokohama avid envigor. Almost worn out now at about 24K miles. I need tires that have longer tread life. Anyone have good results with Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum...

    Advice on Long Road Trip

    Need some help! I am stationed in Germany and while I was on leave i got a great deal on a 2012 Black on Black R-Spec (39K out the door). So needless to say I bought it. I will be returning to the states for a few weeks next month and wanted to know if anyone had a great route to take from...

    How long before 2013MY Genesis?

    When does Hyundai announce these? Do you guys think Hyundai will keep both the R-Spec & 4.6? I assume we probably won't see too many changes since they are planning complete redesign on 2014MY.

    How long were you happy with your Genesis?

    The following article mentions that a new car mainly makes you happy during the test drive, and then it's all downhill after that. I remember that I was most impressed with the Genny 4.6 during the test drive. With 2k miles under the belt, I am not as happy (ecstatic) as the initial drive, but...

    How long did your free 90 day XM trial last?

    Mine is still active after 13 months. I never listen to XM, but every now and then I switch to it to see if it's still active. So far, it is

    Long shot: Equus transfer from Seoul Gimpo to Hotel

    I'm an Australian that has been travelling in Korea for the past 4 weeks. I really like the look of the (new) Equus that I have seen on the roads here in Korea and would love to arrange for a transfer from Gimpo airport in Seoul to my hotel. I'm flying back to Gimpo this Sunday (7th of...

    Finally, after a very long time

    I believe I am going to get a satisfactory resolution from Hyundai. To re-cap: My '09 Genesis 4.6 w/tech had a DIS failure in January of this year, 3 months after I purchased it brand new. The dealer diagnosed it as a bad amplifier, and replaced the amp. After 4 amp replacements and a new...

    Long Term Test from Car & Driver

    Picked up a copy of the August 2010 Car & Driver and read the long term test on a 2009 Genesis 4.6. The first 40,000 miles of a 100,000 mile long term test. Just a few things that C&D said, that many of us already know. After talking about the navigation system demanding a street name before...
