What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 28 model years this bulletin names have filed 587 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 136 of them name Forward Collision Avoidance, Exterior Lighting, Lane Departure — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
When the adaptive cruise control system is engaged while wearing prescription eyeglasses, either my regular clear lenses or prescription polarized sunglasses , a persistent audible and visual warning sounds approximately every two (2) minutes creating a distraction. The warning states "Keep your eyes on the road and drive safely.

The contact owns a 2024 Genesis G70. The contact stated that there was condensation building up inside the headlight assembly, causing the headlight illumination to be reduced, and the turn light brightness was dull. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was determined that there was a crack in the headlight housing.

Excessive condensation in the front headlight that constitutes a safety issue during night driving. Investigation into this needs conducted. I had the passenger side replaced under warranty but now I am outside warranty and the extended coverage excludes sealed headlight components. The dealership quoted $1600.00 to replace.

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Genesis 26-AD-001G a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the 26-AD-001G repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Hyundai warranty extension on file lists the ones Hyundai has filed.
Which vehicles does 26-AD-001G cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 28 model years: 2026 Genesis G70, 2025 Genesis G70, 2024 Genesis G70, 2023 Genesis G70, 2022 Genesis G70, 2021 Genesis G70 and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
