Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 012G is the number Genesis assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 23V094000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is 012G the same recall as 23V094000?

Yes. 012G is Genesis’s own number for it; 23V094000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does 012G cover?

2020–2023 Genesis G80 and 3 other Genesis models, 65,517 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the 012G repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
