A software defect exists which causes the vehicle to reset the electronically controlled side view mirrors such that they point downward, obscuring the driver's view along the sides of the vehicle. I have notified the Genesis dealer and Genesis USA before and neither has been able to reproduce or rectify the problem. I suspect this is a defect when the vehicle is started on an unlevel surface, as the mirrors will attempt to adjust automatically. The defect appears to be most prominent when switching user profiles and shifting into a gear before the driver profile has finished loading. This issue is also present on the 2026 Genesis GV80.

There is a golf ball size indentation on the black border of the windshield with 6-18-33" cracks extending to the mirror with glass shards covering the dash. There was not other vehicles or rock at the incident. We have a friend who has a 2022 GV 80 and has had three rock hit her windshield to chip and that have caused cracks the entire width of the windshield. The car was purchased on 9/5 with approximately 700 miles.
