Genesis GV70, G80 and GV80 recalled for fire risk

Genesis is recalling more than 2000 examples of its GV70 and GV80 crossover SUVs and G80 sedan as a manufacturing defect could potentially lead to a fire.

"A vehicle fire could cause injury or death to the vehicle occupants, other road users and/or damage to property."

• A total of 2299 vehicles are affected across the GV70, G80 and GV80 lines, produced between 2020 and 2025
