On the 2021-2026 Genesis GV80, gV80 models with air suspension experience ride height calibration drift and slow air leaks from the strut assemblies. The suspension may not return to the correct ride height after being lowered for entry/exit mode.
Have the dealer perform an air suspension calibration reset. Inspect the air struts for leaks using soapy water. Replace any leaking struts promptly to protect the compressor from overwork.
On the 2021-2026 Genesis GV80, the GV80 8-speed automatic transmission develops a shudder during low-speed acceleration and torque converter lockup. The torque converter clutch develops uneven friction material wear, creating a vibration felt through the drivetrain.
Perform a transmission fluid flush with Genesis-specified ATF. A TCM software update can improve torque converter lockup calibration. In persistent cases, the torque converter may need replacement under warranty.
On the 2021-2023 Genesis GV80 3.0L Diesel I6, diesel GV80 models experience NOx aftertreatment system issues, including SCR catalyst efficiency codes and DEF quality warnings. The NOx sensor can give false readings, triggering regeneration cycles and reduced power modes.
Replace the NOx sensor and clear adaptation values. Use only manufacturer-approved DEF fluid. Update the ECU calibration for improved NOx system management. Avoid short trips that prevent the DPF from completing regeneration.
On the 2021-2026 Genesis GV80, the GV80 infotainment system experiences periodic software glitches, including the 3D navigation display freezing, wireless phone charging overheating phones, and Genesis Connected Services failing to communicate with the vehicle.
Update to the latest infotainment and Connected Services software. Disable wireless charging if phone overheating occurs and use a wired connection. Factory reset the head unit for persistent glitches.
