Reports submitted to NHTSA, shown in the owner's own words
The contact owns a 2023 Genesis G70. The contact stated that while driving on several occasions at various speeds, the "Turn Signal Error" message was displayed and an orange master warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the residence, where the contact noticed condensation in the passenger’s side headlight. The contact stated that the passenger’s side turn signal bulb was replaced. The vehicle was then taken to a dealer, and it was determined that the passenger’s side headlight was damaged by an object. The vehicle was not repaired. The insurance company was informed of the issue and notified the contact that the issues were related to common stress factors. The vehicle was then taken to an auto body shop, where it was determined that the seals of the passenger’s side headlight had cracks or holes, causing condensation and water to enter the headlight assembly. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that a week later, the driver's side headlight had a similar failure. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where it was determined that an impact might have caused the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a claim was submitted. The failure mileage was approximately 52,000.

The vehicle experienced a sudden emergency braking intervention on the highway. Alert came on and it said emergency breaking with curved red arrow and the car slowed down from around 70mph-60mph. Lane assist was on but the car was not on cruise control. The problem was resolved after pressing the accelerator. I was not hit but the could have been a dangerous situation if someone was right behind me.

While driving my Genesis G70 on the highway in rainy conditions, the vehicle repeatedly loses traction and hydroplanes at normal highway speeds. The car begins sliding across lanes with very little control. During a prior incident, driver-assist features (lane keeping assist) were active. Rain appeared to interfere with the sensors, and the system malfunctioned by steering incorrectly. The steering wheel became difficult to control, and the vehicle attempted to steer into another lane while traction was already compromised. The vehicle hydroplaned across multiple lanes of the expressway, creating a high risk of collision. The system’s steering input did not match driver intent and made the situation more dangerous. The vehicle ultimately came to a stop near a wall but avoided impact. After this incident, I turned off the lane keeping assist feature. However, the problem continues. On a separate occasion, while entering the highway in rainy conditions, the vehicle immediately began sliding again, indicating an ongoing traction or stability issue even without driver-assist features active. This issue has occurred more than once and creates a serious safety risk to myself and others, as the vehicle becomes difficult to control and does not maintain proper traction in wet conditions.

While accelerating to highway speeds, the vehicle suddenly experienced a significant and continuous loss of power. Even with the accelerator fully pressed, the vehicle would not increase speed beyond roughly 50 mph. Based on the behavior and previous service history, the issue appears to be related to the engine, fuel delivery system, or overall powertrain. The incident created a serious safety concern for both the occupants and surrounding traffic. The vehicle could not properly accelerate, merge, or respond to normal highway conditions. Hazard lights had to be activated, and the vehicle remained in the slow lane for an extended period to avoid faster-moving traffic. The issue was consistent and repeatable throughout the drive. Multiple attempts to accelerate resulted in the same lack of response, and the loss of power persisted for the duration of the trip. The vehicle has not yet been inspected following this occurrence because when turned off and turned back on, the issue goes away and happens sporadically. It is also worth noting that the vehicle previously underwent a manufacturer-covered repair involving the high-pressure fuel pump, for which a warranty extension had been issued. This loss of power occurred after that repair was completed. No warning lights, alerts, or prior symptoms were present before or during the incident. Overall, the sudden loss of propulsion at highway speed posed an immediate safety risk, as the vehicle was unable to maintain appropriate speed or safely maneuver with traffic.

The headlights somehow gets condensation/moisture inside of them and when this happens it makes the turning signal faulty and not work properly. A notification pops up in the vehicle that says “check turn signal” and the turing signal does not flash properly. This has happened to my vehicle and I am part of a Facebook group and many of us G70 owners are having the same issue. The dealerships are claiming something cracked the headlights, letting moisture in. But the headlights are not cracked at all and there are an abundant amount of G70 owners having the exact same issue that is very expensive to fix. Some are even paying to get it fixed and still having the same issue after. This should be recalled to make it right and safe for drivers.

While driving at highway speed, the vehicle experienced a sustained loss of motive power. Despite the accelerator pedal being fully depressed, the vehicle would not accelerate beyond approximately 62 mph. Based on the symptoms and prior service history, the malfunction appears related to the fuel/propulsion system, engine, or powertrain. The vehicle is currently parked and available for inspection upon request. This failure placed the safety of the occupants and other motorists at risk. The vehicle was unable to safely accelerate, merge, pass, or respond to traffic conditions. Hazard lights were activated, and the vehicle was forced to remain in the slow lane of the highway for an extended period to avoid being struck by faster-moving traffic. The problem was reproducible and occurred repeatedly during the same trip. Acceleration was tested multiple times, and each attempt resulted in the same loss of power with no response to throttle input. The condition persisted for the entire drive. The vehicle has not yet been inspected following this incident. However, the vehicle previously received a manufacturer warranty repair involving replacement of the high-pressure fuel pump, and the manufacturer has issued a warranty extension for this component. The loss of motive power occurred after that repair. No warning lamps, alerts, or messages were observed prior to or during the failure. There were no warning symptoms immediately preceding the loss of motive power. This loss of propulsion at highway speed created a serious and immediate safety hazard due to the inability to maintain normal traffic speed or maneuver safely.

The fuel delivery system, specifically the fuel pump and fuel rail pressure system, has malfunctioned and continues to trigger diagnostic trouble code P0191 (fuel rail pressure sensor range/performance), despite a prior recall-related software update performed by the dealer, and the vehicle and all affected components are available for inspection upon request. While driving on the highway, the vehicle suddenly began stalling, hesitating, and hard jerking before losing power and entering limp mode, limiting speed to under 50 mph and forcing me to immediately pull over, which created a serious safety risk to myself and other drivers due to the sudden inability to maintain highway speeds. The issue has been confirmed by an authorized dealer through repeated diagnostic scans showing the same fuel system fault codes, and the dealer has determined the fuel pump now requires replacement, indicating the recall update did not resolve the underlying failure. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer on behalf of the manufacturer, and prior to the failure the check engine light illuminated and has remained on since, with symptoms escalating abruptly and occurring without warning, making this an ongoing and unpredictable safety issue.

Manufacturer communications
A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.
BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
Some G70 (IK) vehicles may exhibit a false notification from the front Parking Distance Warning (PDW) sensors when there is no object nearby. This may occur when the parts housing the sensor become loose, causing the sensor to falsely detect objects. There is no functional effect on the vehicle other than the false notification. This bulletin provides the procedure to inspect the vehicle and apply repair(s) as needed.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
This bulletin provides information related to the navigation and head unit software changes introduced in the 2026 1st Navigation Map and Software Update. The changes may vary depending on vehicle type, model, and navigation system. Refer to the 2026 1st Navigation Map and Software Update Key Improvements and Additional Improvements tables in this TSB for a list of specific changes. The software can be downloaded via Navigation Updater (NAU) and updated by USB.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ENGINE
Some vehicles may exhibit difficulty starting in cold weather. This bulletin provides the procedure to perform an inspection on the starter magnetic switch for potential freezing and, if necessary, replace the starter magnetic switch (solenoid) assembly.
AIR BAGS
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued an urgent safety advisory regarding dangerous, counterfeit driver‑side airbag inflators manufactured by Jilin Province Detiannuo Automobile Safety System Co., Ltd. (DTN), that have been identified in U.S. vehicles following prior crashes, theft, or non‑certified airbag replacements. These inflators are not approved for use, may rupture during deployment, and have caused serious injuries and fatalities. Please see attached announcement, provided by NHTSA, for more details.
AIR BAGS
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has identified the presence of substandard and dangerous driver’s-side airbag inflators manufactured by Jilin Province Detiannuo Automobile Safety System Co., Ltd. (DTN). These inflators were not supplied, approved, or authorized by the vehicle manufacturers and have primarily been found in vehicles that previously experienced a crash and underwent airbag replacement using non-genuine parts. These dangerous inflators have ruptured during deployment, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to metal fragments entering the vehicle cabin. To date, Hyundai is aware of three people who have died while driving a Hyundai vehicle with one of these substandard replacement airbag inflators that deployed in what likely would have been a survivable crash. NHTSA has issued a public advisory urging vehicle owners and service professionals to have vehicles inspected if there is reason to believe that a non-genuine replacement airbag may have been installed. Vehicles with salvage or rebuilt titles, prior airbag deployments, or unknown repair histories may present a higher risk. NHTSA strongly cautions against self-inspection by vehicle owners and recommends inspection by trained technicians.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING; FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL; FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS; LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST; LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING
Some 2020MY and newer vehicles equipped with a front view camera may illuminate certain warning lights and trigger DTC C272246 fault code for the front camera. In the following cases, the front camera auto-calibration range may be exceeded while driving: • If the front camera is not properly installed and is completely or partially detached. • In case of excessive changes affecting the vehicle's balance (e.g., loading excessively heavy cargo in a specific location of the vehicle, or significant under-inflation of the tires). • Specific road conditions affecting the vehicle's balance (e.g., excessive road crown) This TSB provides instructions on how to service the vehicle when the front camera related warning light(s) are triggered due to system out of calibration (DTC_C272246).
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
