ANALYSISHow safe is the 2024 Genesis Gv70?
The 2024 Genesis GV70 presents a notable decline in its Safety Index, scoring 84 out of 100, a two-point drop from the 2023 model year's 86, though it remains in the Strong band. This shift warrants close examination, particularly as it does not stem from occupant protection. The vehicle achieved a 5-star overall NHTSA rating and a strong crash protection sub-score of 61 out of 70. The primary factor in the index reduction is the avoidance technology sub-score, which stands at 5 out of 10. This indicates that certain active-safety features are not standard across all trims, impacting the composite safety assessment. Regarding defects, the 2024 GV70 holds a competitive sub-score of 17.75 out of 20, but two open recall campaigns are present. One recall addresses fuel system hoses and fittings, a broad campaign affecting multiple Genesis and Hyundai platforms. The second recall is specific to the 2024 GV70, focusing on potential water intrusion into the transmission control harness wiring. This particular recall is especially relevant given its exclusivity to the current model year's production. Seventeen owner complaints have been registered, primarily citing powertrain and electrical issues. These complaints loosely align with the transmission wiring recall, though their direct causation is unverified. Buyers considering the 2024 GV70 should verify recall remedies have been completed, particularly for the specific wiring issue, to ensure the full safety profile of the vehicle.
