2025–2026 Genesis G80 and 3 other Genesis models: electrical system recall
An instrument panel display that fails to show critical safety information, such as the speedometer or fuel gauge, increases the risk of a crash.

What that means, in plain English
Source: WhichTrim's reading of the filing above — not NHTSA's wordingA software error causing the instrument cluster display to fail (losing speedometer/fuel gauge) can strand or inconvenience the driver but does not directly cause a crash or remove vehicle control; the OTA/dealer software fix and interim workaround (disabling HD radio) confirm this is a display/soft

The fix, from the dealer bulletin

The operation code and time the manufacturer pays the dealer; a customer-pay estimate elsewhere is a different number.
The advisory, as filed: “As required by federal law, retailers must not deliver new vehicles for sale or for lease to guests until all open recalls have been performed.”
Read from NHTSA’s copy of the manufacturer’s dealer documents (manufacturer campaign 031G). The procedure itself is in the bulletin; a franchised dealer has the current copy on the manufacturer’s portal, and that copy governs. Working a lot or a fleet? Recall Watch carries this line on every VIN it checks: remedy status, hours, stop-sale.
Which vehicles are covered

| Model year | Class | Safety Signal | Recalls on file |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 Genesis G80 | Large Sedan | B | 2 |
| 2026 Genesis G80 | Large Sedan | A | 1 |
| 2026 Genesis GV60 | Compact SUV | A | 1 |
| 2026 Genesis GV70 | Compact SUV | C | 3 |
| 2025 Genesis GV80 | Large SUV | C | 3 |
| 2026 Genesis GV80 | Large SUV | A | 1 |
Those are the model years inside WhichTrim's range, 2016 onward. The campaign may cover others outside it, and the only thing that settles whether one specific vehicle is included is its VIN.
How much of it has been fixed
Source: manufacturer quarterly report, 49 CFR 573.7of the campaign
3 quarters into the six-quarter reporting window, and still climbing.
This is the manufacturer's own cumulative count of vehicles it has inspected and repaired, divided by the vehicles the campaign covers. It files that count with NHTSA every quarter for six consecutive quarters, starting from the quarter in which owners were told a remedy was ready, and then the obligation ends — so a figure on an older campaign is where the count stopped, not where it stands today.
It rarely reaches 100%, and not because the work was not done. The same report asks manufacturers to count vehicles they could not reach at all — exported, stolen, scrapped, or simply never located — and those stay in the denominator. A low number means a lot of these vehicles are still out there unrepaired; it does not tell you which ones.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573Is 031G the same recall as 26V019000?
Yes. 031G is the number Hyundai Motor America uses for this campaign in its own paperwork and in the letter it sends owners. 26V019000 is the number NHTSA files it under. One recall, two references — dealers and service departments generally quote the manufacturer's.
Does this recall repair cost anything?
No. Federal law requires the manufacturer to remedy a safety defect or a compliance failure at no charge, for vehicles up to 15 years old measured from the date of first sale. A dealer that asks you to pay for a recall repair is in the wrong.
How do I know whether my vehicle is included?
By VIN, not by model year. This campaign covers vehicles built Jan 21, 2025 to Dec 10, 2025. The manufacturer files a build range with NHTSA and only vehicles inside it are covered, so two identical-looking cars from the same year can differ. NHTSA's own lookup checks a VIN against the manufacturer's list.
What if the repair is not available yet?
It happens, and often. Manufacturers must notify owners when a defect is found even if the parts or the software are not ready, then notify them a second time once the remedy exists. The remedy filed for this campaign is described above.
What did the manufacturer say was wrong?
The problem, risk and fix quoted on this page are the manufacturer's own words as filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR Part 573. WhichTrim does not paraphrase them.
Who started this recall?
NHTSA's record credits NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation. A recall can begin with the manufacturer's own testing, with a defect investigation, or with a compliance test against a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.
