Overview

2023 Genesis G90

The 2023 Genesis G90, a full-size luxury sedan, aims for prestige but carries a notable reliability burden for the used market. Its 3.5L V6 engine paired with an 8-speed automatic and all-wheel drive delivers competent performance, achieving an EPA-estimated 20 MPG combined. However, a substantial number of recalls, including critical issues with the fuel pump and seat belt pretensioners, alongside owner complaints about propulsion and electrical systems, signal potential ownership challenges. These factors contribute to a below-average reliability assessment, suggesting that while the G90 offers a premium experience, potential buyers must be prepared for possible repair costs and diligent pre-purchase inspections.

Critical Failure Risk

The fuel pump system is a critical component. Failures can lead to a loss of drive power, a significant safety concern. This issue has been the subject of multiple recalls and is a primary driver of the vehicle's 'Below Average' reliability verdict.

Early detection can help you avoid a $500-$2,000 repair.
