Genesis Electrical Recalls Address Display Failures, Power Loss and Fire
⚠ 1 carries a park-outside (fire risk) advisory.
Instrument display software failures recur in three Genesis electrical notices: 026G covers certain 2023-2024 G80 and GV80, 2025 GV70, and 2023-2025 Electrified GV70 vehicles; 027G covers 2023-2025 G90 and GV60 vehicles; the January 2026 notice includes 2025-2026 G80 and GV80 vehicles among its affected models. Two charging-unit notices describe ICCU damage that can stop 12-volt battery charging and cause drive power loss, with GV60 appearing in both. Separate defects involve starter-solenoid water intrusion and fire risk in older Genesis sedans, transmission-control harness water intrusion in the 2024 GV70, and false radar detection causing unintended braking in certain 2023-2026 G90 vehicles.
Warning signs to watch for
- March and November 2024 ICCU recalls: loss of drive power.
- March 2024 GV70 transmission-control harness recall: an unexpected shift from Park to Neutral and possible vehicle rollaway.
- Instrument display recalls 026G and 027G: display failure may prevent the speedometer or warning lights from being shown.
- January 2026 instrument display recall: display failure may prevent the speedometer or fuel gauge from being shown.
- December 2025 G90 radar recall: sudden, unintended braking while driving.
Can you keep driving? What the notices say
One notice instructs parking outside and away from structures: the February 2024 starter fire recall, until repair is complete. None of the supplied notices tells owners to stop driving. The March 2024 GV70 harness notice advises turning off the ignition and using the emergency parking brake after parking. The December 2025 G90 radar notice advises against using Highway Drive Assist until repaired. The January 2026 display notice advises disabling HD radio until repaired. The remaining notices do not tell owners to stop driving.
What the free repair involves
Free remedies include a starter relay kit for the February 2024 fire recall; harness connector repair or wiring replacement as necessary for the March 2024 GV70 recall; and ICCU inspection, replacement as necessary, and software updates for November 2024. Display remedies vary by notice, including OTA updates under 027G and January 2026. The G90 radar recall replaces the front bumper beam free.

Common questions
Which Genesis electrical recall requires parking outside?
The February 2024 starter-solenoid recall advises parking outside and away from structures until repair is complete. Water may enter the solenoid and cause a short and engine compartment fire while parked or driving. Dealers install a remedy relay kit free.
Does the Genesis display recall offer an over-the-air repair?
Recall 027G offers an instrument panel display software update over the air or through a dealer. The January 2026 notice offers an audio video navigation software update over the air, or dealer inspection and updating. Recall 026G specifies dealer inspection and updating.
Does an earlier ICCU repair satisfy the March 2024 notice?
The March 2024 ICCU notice explicitly says it is replaced by NHTSA recall 24V-868 and that vehicles already repaired under it need the new remedy completed. The November 2024 notice specifies ICCU and fuse inspection, replacement as necessary, and an ICCU software update.
