    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.

After multiple failed attempts and several days of being out my car for the annoying sunroof rattle, I've given up.

Last Wed I traded in my Genesis for a 2014 BMW 535i. Both vehicles had roughly 30k miles and it was an even up trade for the most part, so I at least feel like I got out without being beat up too bad.

I'm well aware that BMWs are service snobs (I've owned 6 in the past), but I have also experienced a significantly higher level of service when problems have come up.

I did just buy a brand new set of General G-Max AS-03 tires for the 5.0 that I hadn't yet had time to install. (2) 275/35/19 and (2) 245/40/19. Hit me up if you'd like to make an offer. I'm in the DFW area, but would ship out of area at buyers expense. I've had these tires on a 2014 Audi S5 and a 2010 Camaro SS and will argue they are a phenomenal AS tire that still allows good performance.

I love this new Genesis and will for sure be back when they get the flaws ironed out. It's too good of a car to let these small things go un-addressed.

Good luck to you all!

Hate to see you go man, but I completely understand. Good luck on the Bimmer.
 
Sunroofs were invented to cause probs.

Mine got bashed out by a hailstorm last spring - the glass is very thin - less than 1/6".

But the horror stories I've heard about German cars - you could write a book about.

Except for the hail storm -nature caused - I have had not a single prob. with my 2015 Genny
