Description:
SAFETY DEFECT: Water intrusion through defective sunroof drainage system creating electrical hazards. Vehicle exhibits water leakage into interior during rainfall due to clogged sunroof drain hose plugs. Water accumulates in dashboard area, cup holders, and center console where electrical components are located, creating potential for electrical shorts, fires, or system failures. Component Failure: Sunroof drainage system fails to properly channel water away from vehicle interior. Manufacturer has issued Technical Service Bulletin 24-BD-008G acknowledging this defect in GV70 and GV80 models, stating ‘vehicles may exhibit water leakage inside the vehicle due to the sunroof drain hose plugs being clogged with foreign material.’ Safety Risk: Standing water near electrical systems poses fire hazard and potential electrical failure while driving. Interior materials remain saturated creating mold conditions affecting air quality. Driver visibility may be compromised by water dripping from interior surfaces. Dealer Confirmation: Multiple owners report Genesis service technicians confirming drainage system design cannot handle normal rainfall volumes. Other owners have received warranty repairs for identical symptoms after manufacturer initially resisted. Symptoms: No warning lamps appear. Problem manifests during any rainfall with water appearing in cup holders, dashboard areas, and dripping from interior panels. Issue occurs while vehicle is parked or in motion during rain. Widespread Problem: Manufacturer acknowledgment through official Technical Service Bulletin indicates this affects multiple vehicles with same design defect. Component available for inspection. Status: Manufacturer refuses warranty repair despite published Technical Service Bulletin documenting this exact defect.
