This page covers 13 recalls and 55 owner complaints for the 2023 Genesis Gv60.
Electrical system complaints dominate the 2023 GV60 owner reports, with the most frequently described issue being failure of the integrated charging control unit (ICCU). Owners report the vehicle suddenly losing power, entering a reduced-power limp mode, and becoming unable to charge, often at low mileage. Some describe hearing an audible pop before the failure occurs. The powertrain category adds to the picture, with reports of sudden power loss that required towing and component replacement. A smaller but notable cluster of owners describes the seatbelt pretensioner activating unexpectedly while driving, tightening the belt without any collision or emergency event. A few owners also report the Highway Driving Assist system disengaging without warning during normal driving, requiring the driver to take over quickly. The ICCU failure pattern stands out for appearing across multiple independent reports, with some owners noting the replacement unit carried the same part number as the one that failed.

By System
The 2023 Genesis GV60 has 13 recalls, the most serious being exploding front seatbelt pretensioners that can scatter metal fragments into the cabin and strike occupants in a crash.
Several recalls involve loss of drive power. The rear driveshafts and rear axle shafts can fracture or fail under load, cutting power to the wheels without warning. The integrated charging control unit can also fail and stop charging the 12-volt battery, which similarly causes a loss of drive power. Prior repair attempts for the charging control unit issue did not fully resolve the problem, and a software-based remedy has since been issued alongside the hardware fix.
On the restraint side, the front passenger seatbelt's automatic locking retractor can stick in the locked position or prevent the belt from extending, making it difficult or impossible to fasten. This is separate from the pretensioner concern described above.
Two electrical and display issues round out the list: a software error can cause the instrument panel to go blank at startup, taking the speedometer, warning lights, and other gauges with it, and a software problem can prevent the rearview camera image from appearing when reversing. There are also two related structural concerns: the stainless-steel trim strip above the windshield can detach from the vehicle and become a road hazard for other drivers.
