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.
"Due to a manufacturing defect, the fuel pipe connecting fuel rails may become loose. This may lead to a fuel leak and in the presence of an external ignition source, could result in a vehicle fire," the company says in its recall notice.
"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
- The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) list is attached here

If you own an affected vehicle, Genesis will contact you and direct you to schedule an appointment with an authorised service centre for a free inspection and repair.
