Has the transmission been drain/filled or flushed with new ATF?

No not that I know of should I take it in for that service

Probably would be a good place to start. Does it happen worse when the car had been running a bit and is heated up?

Yes it does from a take off and happens thru out all shift changes ..

If its worse when the engine/transmission are hot then a good place to start would be to at least drain the old fluid and add new fluid. This will drain about half the old stuff out and replace it with new. You could do that and see if it helps. If it does, then drive it a while and maybe do another drain and fill down the road so you have 75% new fluid. Or you could go in for a full flush, although some people say to avoid that. Either way, the 2012 Genesis 4.6 was notorious for transmission issues (my 2012 has 100,087 on it and is starting to have rough shifts from 3-4 and 4-5 when the fluid is hot). Hyundai updated it in 2013 which fixed a lot of the shifting issues the 2012 model had. From what I understand, dealers would just put in new 2013+ transmissions into the 2012 models when people would come in complaining of shifting issues, I guess it was that bad.

Any dash lights on? Could be a bad sensor of sorts, Throttle position sensor?
