Has been an excellent car and very much maintenance free except for fluids and tire rotation/replacement. After owning and driving for 8 years I will keep for a couple more years. A great car for road trips and around town.
Great car. One major flaw!!!

I love the car. Second Hyundai and no complaints other than one. Air bag passenger Off Light glows a bright orange at night even when no one is sitting in the passenger seat. It is very disconcerting since everything else is a very nice blue. I contacted Hyundai corporate. A very nice lady said there was no solution and she asked me if I could avoid driving at night. I told her not really. I didn't buy a luxury car that I wouldn't drive it at night. She realized she asked a dumb question. My solution is to scotch tape a penny over the Off Light at night. I wonder if a Lexus has the same kind of flaw.

I have owned Jaguars, Mercedes, and five BMWS. They are all good cars and fun to drive. I did the research on the Genesis and read all the reviews and was convinced this was the car to test drive and give it a try. I drove the car and was completely sold on the car in every way. I bought it and am more than satisfied with the performance, ride, quietness, comfort, roominess and quality. It is all that the other cars are and more and 25k less to buy.
Wouldn't Buy Another One

The drive train on this one is awful. The car has a difficult time finding the right gear. As a result it is always shifting. Shifts aren't smooth and many times the transmission tries to catch up with the engine, resulting in a lurch forward. The cruise control can't keep a steady speed. The engine is extremely noisy. My 2002 Infinity I35 is twice the car this one is. Also the radio doesn't show the artist and title of songs played. This is ten year old technology folks. I would not buy another one.
NOT WORLD CLASS

This is my third Hyundai and my first major disappointment. While an otherwise decent car, the Genesis has a fit and finish problem with its roof. The car shows "indentations" or "ripples" around the sun roof and around the antenna installation. My car was review by the Hyundai regional rep and reported that this issue was noted in other cars on the lot and "came that way from the factory". I appealed to Hyundai Customer Connect who reiterated that "other like vehicles displayed the same characteristics,..operating as designed, therefore, no further assistance. The model should be called the "Donald Trump Edition", it has as many "waves" as the Donald's hair do. Major dissapointment!
