Genesis G80 Recalls (2017-2026)
The Genesis G80 has been the subject of 13 recall campaigns on record with NHTSA across the 2017 to 2026 model years. They cluster mostly around the fuel system, electrical system, and engine and engine cooling.
The Genesis G80 scores 11 out of 100 (grade F), one of the heavier recall records among the vehicles we track. That score reflects how serious the recalls are rather than how many. 77% involve a critical safety system, none carried a do-not-drive warning, and 62% were issued in the last three years. How the score works.
Those 13 campaigns span 10 model years of the Genesis G80. The single largest affected 94,646 vehicles, over service brakes. A recall repair is free at a franchised dealer and most never expire, so an older open recall is still worth fixing. Beyond recalls, you can also see the most common G80 problems owners report and its crash-test safety ratings.
The full record is below, grouped first by model year and then listed in detail. Each entry gives the defect NHTSA describes, the safety risk it creates, the manufacturer's remedy, the number of vehicles in that campaign, and the dates. A recall covers a whole production run, so a campaign listed for the Genesis G80 may not apply to your exact vehicle, and one you have already had repaired will still appear in the history. To see what is actually open and unfixed on a specific car, check its 17-digit VIN.
