Recalls: Genesis JW1 GV60

2022-23 Genesis JW1 GV60: rear driveshaft could break

In June 2023, recall campaign 31D040 was issued for 2022-23 Genesis JW1 GV60 vehicles. Due to a manufacturing defect, the vehicle’s rear driveshaft may fracture and this would result in a sudden loss of motive power. If this occurred whilst driving, there would be an increased risk of a collision and injury for both vehicle occupants and other road users. Until the recall works were carried out, drivers were advised to drive with caution and listen for any abnormal noise. If noise could be heard from the rear of the vehicle, owners were advised to have to have vehicle delivered to a Genesis dealer. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-005698.

2022-24 Genesis JW1 GV60: seatbelt pre-tensioner inflator cap and metal fragments

In June 2023, recall campaign 31D015 was issued for 2022-24 Genesis JW1 GV60 vehicles. Due to a manufacturing issue, the seatbelt pre-tensioner inflator cap may fracture when deployed in the event of a collision. If the seatbelt pre-tensioner inflator cap fractured, metal fragments may be propelled at high speed towards the vehicle occupants – these could cause serious injury. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-005715.

2022-24 Genesis JW1 GV60: ICCU software, battery drainage and potential loss of power
