BiG TIP - Buy a Certified Pre-owned Genesis with the full warrant for about 60% of the original price. With only 20k mileage. I have twice.

I have a 2015 Genesis 3.8 just like this one. I bought it brand new. Today, it has 247k miles on it. Engine is original with all original parts. My sunroof also rattles in cold weather but I don’t care. It has served me very well! My target is to get to 300k miles and then get something new!

Lucky you. I purchased a 32,000 mile pre-owned Hyundai Genesis (2015) and had the fuel door replaced, the oil pan leak replaced, the left rear door handle break off, the wires in the trunk be repaired (TSB), and lastly, transmission failure at 105,000 miles. In total, I spent over $8,000 in repairs...garbage company (Hyundai)...traded up to a Lexus.

I have a 2013 Genesis that I bought new. In the 10 years that I have owned it, I have had ZERO issues and Zero repair costs. I've done all of the general maintenance, myself, except for oil changes, because when I bought the car, I received a coupon book for $8.95 oil changes. (The oil filter alone must cost that much) Every time I go to the dealer, they try to sell me things that I've already done......They must hate my guts.

I got the same vehicle for $15k in 2018. Excellent deal. Only drawback is being charged more for maintenance such as oil change and spark plugs.

I have owned mine since new, Dec 2014, I love it and have had only one minor issue. In fact I just changed the original battery in April 2024. Great vehicle 🎉

I got my honda accord because of you. Paid her off and now im looking at getting a Genesis or G80

Kleantrix i posted a comment a few days ago about the alignment giving me problems. I had the car aligned at 4 different shops and each shop said it was good but tried to adjust the alignment according to the pull i was experiencing. Upon doing some online research the past 2 weeks i came across a forum post about loose lug nut torque because the Genesis is a heavy car. I Purchased a 1/2 torque wrench and set it to 95 ft lbs torque. After i torque each wheel in a star pattern i take the car for a drive. To my astonishment the car drove perfect, steering felt precise, no more wandering and the car felt quicker for some reason. Called my mechanic because i still couldnt believe it. He said under torqued wheels can cause pull, vibration, and wander especially with 4,700 pound car like the Genesis. Hope i can help someone else within the Genesis family👍 oh also i had brake shudder before i torque the lug nuts, even that is gone now.

Well spelled out and thank you. I knew where you were going when, on the plus side, you talked about the great warranty AND the need for a great warranty. Obviously, this Korean maker is not Honda company; I always say that what trumps a great warranty is a car that does not need a warranty--as little, if anything goes wrong. BUT, I do wonder if the newer Genesis' are coming up to the mark?

Hands down, pound for pound a great car, never have I ever regretted purchasing this wonderful reliable car!

if u get am oil light it may be u need to put 7 to 8qts of oil the recommended oil is not correct at the auto stores

I bought my twenty fifteen black in aurora colorado in november a twenty fifteen. You need to show the front which is the best part of it

You are so right in every way.

How can own a car you bought in 2017 for eight years?

I'm going to get one most definitely

So if people say don't buy a used vehicle why would they want a dealership to take the trade since they won't be able to sell it

If anyone reads this, I also have a 2015 Like his, but I do not have all the bells and whistles.. And I have not had to take it to get fixed that much. would do the regular checkups (way too pricey) and 1 major fix that was under warranty. I would get an extended warranty, right now I have this silly oil light that could be a sensor, and the car keeps thinking the back window is open, i can live with that. ITs a car good this, but like he and I say, dont get the one with sunroof! And if you do just get the extended warranty. Right now also my paint is bad on my bumpers. I can live with that. But its an 8 year old car with 106k miles and I love it.

My 2018 sport has AC issues ( freezing) has anyone had this issue?

I own that exact model in blue with white interior.

Wow... a lot of warranty claims on that one I purchased a used 3 year old Hyundai Equus in 2015 and still own it today. It was in the new car warranty when I purchased it and they did the front air struts, a new Nav head unit and some work on the sunroof right at the time I bought it. I bought the factory warranty " wrap" which basically gave me 5 more years and 100K total of factory warranty. The car never broke again and thus I never got to use the extended warranty I purchased. I did have to do a wheel bearing ($900) at the dealer about 6 months ago At this point I am probably going to buy a 2-3 year old Genesis G90 as the next one

Love my 2018 Ultimate but ever since I had my differential replaced the wheel alignment has been out of wack. Sadly most shops don't do the alignment correctly or half ass. Before the differential was replaced my alignment was golden. Supposedly alignment is a big issue on the g80 on g90. They lose their alignment fast

Bought a used 2018 g90. Best car ive ever had. Only thing you need to be mindful of is the 3.3 produce more carbon then usual so a fuel induction service every other oil change and the transmission fluid says to be changed after 90k miles, do 45 or every 30k. That long lasting transmission fluid is b.s. This is stuff ive found researching the engine an transmission reliability.

I had the brake light issue they covered it. I had computer software issues with the emissions system and dealers and Genesis would not cover it. I had to pay. That 100k warranty means nothing to them. They will find every way not to pay.

When they built this model they were really trying hard to get Lexus people to Genesis. They made it with Quality, but now I think not so much. At that time Lexus was still going after perfection not anymore.

Basically, don't buy without a warranty. And sell it before it runs out. Definitely not a Lexus. I still want a 2022 G70.

Before purchasing a Genesis, check your service wait times. I purchased a 2019 G90. It takes a month to get service and now, I've had 2 dealerships decline the valet service because, "I didn't purchase it from them". That wasn't what was promised. I even called Genesis USA. The person on the phone knew of the problem but offered no help. Now, the G90 is over $100K. This is crazy. If you want to burn $100K why not get married ? If I'm to be lied to and treated this way, I might as well purchase a BMW. At least I'll have the badge snobbery we all know of.

First you say buy the car then turn around and say not to buy the car contradictory if you ask me. Also this is not a German car. Came from the makers of Hyundai. Remember the Hyundai Genesis? That vehicle split off into its own luxury line. If your going to make videos can you at least know what your talking about lol

When you buy a used car this old you don't get a warranty....duh. You don't need a warranty. If your so hell bent on a warranty, then get a new car. Your video is totally useless info. I definitely won't be subscribing to hear more of your opinions.
