  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Hi to everyone, I am new to this site, did'nt know it existed. I was a former member of the Factory sponsored Genesis Owners Forum before Hyundai scrapped it, probably due to the overwhelming amount of complaints on the 09's suspension.
I was one of the unfortunate 2009 first build 4.6 sedan owners. Loved the car except for the awful jittery unsettled ride. After over a year of numerous complaints to the dealer and Hyundai Corporate, they agreed to work with me on a trade in for a 2010 4.6 sedan, under one condition, that I pick out a 2010 4.6 and drive it for 100 miles before making a decision. I did so and discovered a huge difference in the ride, much smoother and much less unsettled. They sold me the car for dealer cost and gave me top extra clean trade in value for the 09. I am completely satisfied with my 2010. For a extra smoother and quieter ride, I replaced the Dunlop tires with Bridgestone Serenity tires at 22,000 miles. Looking forward to the next generation Genesis, probably 2014 or 2015 model year. It is still the best bang for the buck.

Great tire choice and the new Bridgestone turanza Serenity Plus is even better.
 
There have been hundreds (maybe thousands) of posts regarding this subject on this forum. Your experience was similar to mine. I (and a few other members of this forum) swapped out the 2009 suspension parts with the 2010 parts to resolve the problem.

Regarding the OE Dunlop tires, many others have also posted the same information as you about the vast improvement with other brands/models of tire.
