Genesis is conducting a recall of all-electric vehicles (EVs) sold in Australia, comprising the GV60, Electrified GV70, and Electrified G80 models. This recall, part of a global campaign, aims to address a software issue within the Integrated Charging Control Unit (ICCU), affecting a total of 528 vehicles manufactured between 2022 and 2024.
The identified fault in the ICCU software can lead to inadequate charging of the auxiliary 12-volt battery, resulting in battery drainage and potential loss of motive power while driving. Genesis emphasizes the seriousness of this issue, highlighting the increased risk of accidents that could cause injury or even death to vehicle occupants and other road users.
To address this safety concern, Genesis urges affected vehicle owners to promptly schedule an appointment with their nearest Genesis dealership. During this appointment, the software update necessary to rectify the fault will be performed at no cost to the owner.
Owners who require further clarification or assistance regarding the recall process can reach out to Genesis directly at 1800 908 070. The company remains committed to ensuring the safety and satisfaction of its customers and encourages proactive action to address this issue promptly.
