Is there something special about the G80 wiper blades?

Really? I consider making it a year with wiper blades to be doing really well. The general expectation here seems to be about 6 to 12 months, max.

Yup, add to that my car was sitting outside for a number of months in the lot exposed to all the elements.

As an owner of an Electrified G80, and would suggest that the vehicle is not listed on the site, as opposed to any technical reason.

Keith, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the main reason for the 'incompatibility' listed on a number of sites.

I believe wipers are covered for 12 months/12,000 miles.

I believe wipers are covered for 12 months/12,000 miles.

according to the manual, looks like if defective, not wear.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED
* Normal maintenance services, such as cleaning & polishing,
minor adjustments, lubrication, oil/fluid changes, filters, antifreeze coolant replenishment, wheel alignment and tire
rotation, unless such services are performed as part of a
covered warrantable repair, or unless covered by a Genesis
Maintenance Program.
* Normal maintenance items (#) are warranted in normal
service, only when the replacement is the result of a defect
in material or factory workmanship, for 12 months from the
date of original retail delivery or date of first use, or 12,000
miles, whichever occurs first, or up to the first scheduled
maintenance replacement interval. (# - such as belts, brake
pads and linings, clutch linings, filters, wiper blades and
all bulbs, except halogen bulbs which are covered up to 3
years from the date of original retail delivery or date of first

I’d like to replace the wiper blades on my 23 G80 EV which takes the standard 26” & 16” sizes. Yet when I go on Amazon for these sizes, it comes back with the prompt, “Will not fit your 2023 electrified G80”. I can’t imagine what would be different about these.

Does anyone have any idea or is this just an error on Amazon?

I've been using these blades. They fit most cars and can be adjusted if needed
