Interesting that there are always NEW people complaining about Genesis or Azera suspension/ride, but the same people always respond and attack them. Regardless, Consumer Reports did pick the Genesis as number one in its class, but commented negatively three times about the ride in its review. Also, in their April issue, they stated one of the negatives of Hyundai cars was the suspension. Furthermore, please see http://consumerguideauto.howstuffworks.com/2009-hyundai-genesis-1.htm, particularly the ratings chart and the comments from professional reviewers.

Replying to: joe97 (Mar 17, 2009 4:47 pm) not happy with the suspension have every right to gripe about it as often as we like. There are indeed those who are content with the ride, and that is fine as far as I am concerned. If they like the wallowing, porpusing and unsafe bobbing about from lack of proper jounce and rebound control, that's fine with me! Professional testers have commented on the poor suspension numerous times, so I leave it up to them. For me, I am not happy with our Azera. We suffer from it's ride every time we go anywhere. Won't be suffering for too much longer according to my Lemon Law Attorney.

He has referred to his sources as authoritative, yet those sources have provided both the positive and the negative. Any backside agenda aside, if he was trying to be objective, then he would have provided both sides of the story. Yes, I understand the suspension is not a strong suit of Hyundai vehicle; I also understand the fact any cars built by humans are not always perfect, and this applies to all brands, so yes, certain owners may get bad apples, and that is very unfortunate. Still, I believe Hyundai's suspension system is at least adequate for the intent of its vehicles. I haven't driven an Azera in a while but have had many hours of seat time in the Genesis - of course it doesn't handle like a 5er, and I didn't expect to, for a luxury sedan and all. FWIW, most professional mags have commented similarily. As for the Azera, I've found it to be a better Buick, and that was exactly what I expected going in (most of the cars in the class drives like that). Certainly there are improvements Hyundai can make, no doubt.

Replying to: joe97 (Mar 18, 2009 6:32 pm) is on including the Hyundai 'Think Tank' where we are both members. We don't see you there do we? It is truly a shame that you do not know Bob as well as I do, in fact, you do not know him at all. We have spent many productive hours talking one on one. To his credit, Bob does try to present opinions from others that do criticize the Azeras' suspension, so anyone can plainly see that what he says is simply not his opinion only. Both of us have Azeras with the exact same problem, so we do in fact know all about them. We both are on our third sets of factory shocks, so we both do have as have several others here been through that suspension mill. For you to compare the suspension of any Buick with the average Azera is ludicrous. Buicks are a product of General Motors, and as such, there are no finer suspensions. If Buick were to have produced such terrible suspension as our Azeras, they'd have been history a long time ago. Since some of the magazine writers are knocking the Genesis suspension, why is it that you say that it is 'okay'? Did you know that Hyundai is hard at work trying to fix those Genesis suspension problems?  I wonder why!

Replying to: donna388 (Mar 18, 2009 7:04 pm) However, it appears many will not admit to problems or just don't understand how a luxury car is supposed to perform - in all categories. Of course, just like the Azera, there are no merits whatsover, everything is bad; everyone has to comply with his opinions or else  When was the last time he (or yourself) attributed one good thing about the Azera, for example? It's not even about the suspension; he'd come in every month or so and bring his beef, yet he tells everyone his objective intent. Does the suspension alone account for the whole car? If he wanted to be objective, then be objective; go through the good and the bad, heck, even the Yugo had some good merits. Oh by the way, if you'd think there are no finer suspensions than Buicks...well, trust me, there are  The Genesis rides/handles just fine for a luxury sedan, especially on highway and smooth surface. Again, I've said there are room for improvements, but certainly I've experienced nothing even remotely as scary as some of the stories made out to be, true of not.
