while driving on the highway my brand new gv 70 lost all acceleration to the gas pedal with no warning lights of any kind. i was able to roll down into an exit and stop the car. i turned it completely off and restarted and it drove normal again. the next business day Genesis picked up the car with a tow truck and on the same da they picked it up, Monday Oct 5, 2026, they told me they couldnt find anything and they would return it to me after a test drive. of course my safety was at risk - there was my sudden dead car driving on a highway - i do not wish to wait to see if this happens again. its completely life threatening.
