In owners' own words
The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Genesis. The contact stated that there was a plastic cover over the key on the front driver side door that failed to come off, which prevented the key from being used. The vehicle could only be opened using the key fob and the driver door was the only door that had a key. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown. Electrical system
There is an outstanding recall 24V107000. As of 9/17/2024, Hyundai does not have parts ready for the recall repair. I went to a Hyundai dealer on or about 7/31/2024 after receiving a notice from Hyundai that remedy is ready and that I should go to one of its dealers to have the repair. I was informed the parts were not available and needed to order them. No parts were provided from Hyundai for the recall. Electrical system
I have a 2015 Genesis Sedan 3.8 My cars instrument cluster glitches! Sometime when driving or only starting the car my cluster lights up all of the warning lights. Also it shows incorrect speed. I have found that Hyundai did recall some of of the 2015 models with this problem but mine doesnât qualify for the recall! Some of the safety features of the car like the bsd system stopped working cause of this. Electrical system
