Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Commerce has initiated a recall of 4,464 Genesis vehicles due to a defect that could lead to fuel leakage and fire risks. The affected models span the GV70, GV80, G80, and G90 ranges, with production dating back to 2021 and ending in 2026. The issue lies in the installation of the fuel cross-pipe, where a faulty mounting could result in loosening and fuel escape, escalating the potential fire hazard.
The recall encompasses specific model variations, including JK1 GV70 from 2021 to 2024, GV80 Coupe from 2025, PE GV80 from 2025, JX1 GV80 from 2021 to 2024, PE G80 from 2025, RG3 G80 from 2021 to 2024, RS4 G90 from 2021 to 2025, and PE GV70 from 2025 to 2026. Vehicle owners are advised to verify if their vehicles are included by visiting the government's Recalls.sa platform using their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
Once confirmed, they should reach out to the authorized Genesis distributor for free repairs. In Jeddah, Genesis vehicles are handled by Mohammed Yousuf Naghi Motors Co., in Riyadh by Wallan Trading Company, and in Dammam by Almajdouie Motors Company.
