Hyundai recalls over 80,000 vehicles due to software issue, NHTSA says
The recall affects 83,877 Genesis models due to software causing instrument panel failures, with free over-the-air or dealer repairs available, officials said.
- Hyundai Motor Company is recalling 83,877 Genesis vehicles in the United States, a step disclosed in a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall notice.
- Hyundai says the issue stems from a software error in the audio‑video/navigation system, which NHTSA said may cause the instrument panel display to fail, hiding the speedometer and fuel gauge.
- Affected models include 2025–2026 G80 and GV80 series plus 2026 G80 Electrified, GV60, GV70 Electrified and GV70; Hyundai assigned recall number 031G with VINs searchable on NHTSA.gov.
- Hyundai will provide a free software update either over‑the‑air or at dealers, and owners of recalled Genesis vehicles are urged to disable the high‑definition radio feature until repairs are done.
- Notification letters will be mailed on March 16 and owners can call Genesis customer service at 1-844-340-9741; NHTSA noted related Toyota recalls failed Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for controls and displays.

Genesis recalls 84,000 vehicles in the U.S. for disappearing screens
Genesis is recalling 83,877 vehicles in the U.S. for the possibility of the instrument panel shutting down while driving, due to a software issue. So far, there isn’t a recall in Canada, but it’s likely on its way, and we'll update this post if that information becomes available. The automaker did issue a recall in Canada last March for an instrument cluster issue, but that involved the screen not coming on when the vehicle was first started.
