  • 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.

List your problems since taking ownership

Interesting that no one mentioned the A/C mildew or musty smell, when there were several threads on the subject last summer.
I've experienced it, then it seemed to go away.
Now on some warmer days it seems to be presenting again.
I think many manufacturers have this issue. I know my Toyota & Lexus did.
There are many products out there to correct the issue...without doing much research, you can go to Amazon and search for car, air conditioner, mold, smell and you will get a ton of products.
 
None - had that sucker 14 mos now
 
Uhm... _what_ 3d sound effect?

Do you ever get the impression that people are maybe a little to hung up on gadgets?
 
I previously said none. I have to revise that.

I tried a couple of thumb drives with MP3 files in the USB slot. The car would not read them. Initially, it looked like I may have to try a different brand thumb drive and/or formatting, but I've determined that the USB port itself is stone cold dead. I plugged my S5 Galaxy in it to charge and got nothing. Resetting the audio system didn't fix it either.

Hope my first trip to the dealer for warranty service is a good one.
 
I have 2G from almost 6 months, at this time we are at almost 17000km and I love this car.

Problems so far? no issues!
 
2015 Ultimate 3.8. 22k in 12 mos.
Tire change but had no problems with the Hankooks.
Side mirrors seem to lose their vertical memory every week or two....have to bring them back up a bit.
Dealer adjusted my headlights.
A little too much hesitation from trans except in Sport mode which I rarely use. Maybe the 5.0 performs better.
....otherwise, no issues. Maybe I'm just lucky....love the car.
 
- Rear Climate Controls not working (switch problem)
- Parking break light/sound notification don't work
- Rattle from left side front and rear doors

The 3D sound (maybe only available on the European version) makes a big difference to the sound, It sounds like the music is all around you as opposed to hearing it coming from the speakers positions.
 
Can you snap a picture of the 3D sound icon and post it here?

It's not really an icon. You select Setup mode screen (button on facia). Then select Sound (Sound icon). Then Advanced (List on left side). On this screen you can chose speed dependant volume and 3D sound, both as an on or off option. The European model is quite different to the USA, with radio technologies being different for example, so my instructions above are probably irrelevant for the USA cars.

So, I took the Genny into the Hyundai service dept this morning about this issue. They called me back about 90 minutes later to let me know that it was fixed and ready to be picked up.

It was the simple fix I'd been hoping for. The USB port had not been connected properly (if at all). I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. The service folks at Auto Nation were nice and helpful.
 
My problems? Zip, none, nada - guess I'm an outlier.

No, you are more likely in the majority. A small sample of people drawn to an internet website is very tough to use as a statistical benchmark, but seems most here are pretty problem free, if one looks at views vs. complaints. Of course the Margin of Error is +/- 1,000,000 :rolleyes:

No problems sense I have owned it.

I love this car so much, that on my way to bed each night, I stop by the door to the garage, open the door and say good night to "Bad Ass".
 
Other than the un-connected the USB port which the dealer fixed in May, no problems at all. :D
