I think your vehicle definietly has a malfunction. I have mine set for easy access and both the driver's seat and stearing wheel move out of the way when I turn the ignition off.

Nope, there's no malfunction with your car. It is just that an option needs to be turned on in your car's computer. Unfortunately, it needs to be done at the dealer as it needs a proprietory handheld computer available only at Hyundai dealers.
 
My Azera also had the easy exit disabled. Wen to the dealer, he attached a scanner/handheld unit, waded through the menus & turned on 'Easy Exit'. Simple.
 
Considering the level of knowledge of a typical Hyundai service department however, they may say there's nothing like it. Don't believe them. Persist with them or go to another competent dealer.
 
Good luck!

Poor ride quality in Genesis? by johnxyz

I don't really have a dog in this fight but I just read yesterday a reviewer's analysis of the Genesis sedan and it supported several of the (dissenting) opinions here about the jittery ride of the Genesis over poor road surfaces. I think it was a blurb in the latest Automobile Mag. (or maybe Motor Trend).
 
If Hyundai works this suspension problem out - they will have a real winner on their hands (not that its chopped liver now, though...).

Johnny, didn't you cross the Genesis off your list a long time ago? Here's one of your posts from back in February:
 
Oh well, strike the Hyundai Genesis off my shopping list! The primitive suspension and subpar seats mentioned above were enough to dis-suade me.
  
Shoot - and I was hopeful for the Genesis.
  
Unfortunately I can't wait until a new model or even a mid-model refresh (to address these 2 QC/design issues) to come out before I buy. Back to Toyota & Honda.

 
Back again, to convince us of how sub-par the Genesis is? And where are these "several opinions" about the Genesis' ride? All I've seen are the same people repeatedly posting the same garbage in different forums. Are those the opinions you're referring to? PLEASE. I know a futile mud-flinging campaign when I see one, and I know I'm not the only one.

Just a follow-up to my original comment. Ya gotta go with the editors Automobile Mag. Fix the suspension and the 6 cyl Genesis sedan is the value winner....

Johnxyz -
 
Don't let the paranoid bullies chase you away like they have everyone else. They find it easier to imagine nefarious plots rather than admit that some people have had a complaint or concern with the ride of the Genesis. They also can't read or hold more than one piece of info in their brains at a time. There are indeed several people who have made many posts (it's called a dialouge), but there are also many individual comments about suspension concerns - many people only posted once or twice until the bullies drove them away or they got their questions answered and moved on.

The ride is fine by sheltonzz

Time to wade in here! I have had my Genesis since last August and, yes, the ride is a little stiffer then the Infinti Q45 or the Lexus LS400 that I have previously driven but certainly not unbearable. I don't know for sure but the ride is probably more like the other "sports" sedans being sold by BMW or Mercedes. Based on value this car is perfect. It was $20,000 less then the Q45 but actually bigger on the inside in every way. Couple this with the fantastic warranty and you can not go wrong buying this car.

No one denies your great experience and we are jealous believe me. The concern is not about a little stiffness in the ride. Some people have had a vastly different experience - that doesn't negate your experience and your experience does not negate ours. There is clearly variablity in the vehicles. The issue has popped up often enough that something is/was going on.

Mee too... by sergio19

sheltonzz,
 
I feel the same way...I think the car is perfect...at least for me.
I got my Genesis V8/Tech almost 2 weeks ago and am thrilled to death of it!
I traded my Azera for it. YES the suspension is stiffer but it's a good stiff and to me is sporty!
 
It handles really well in curves and turns and performance is awesome. I also keep telling my wife it's got too much power. Boy this car can move!
 
If I had to find something wrong about this car TO ME it's the tire noise! The Dunlops aren't very good tires IMO.
 
The mileage you get on the freeway is awesome...I average anywhere between 27 - 29 MPG. City driving is another story, Between 16 - 18 MPG. Overall I'd say that's pretty dam good considering it being a V8.
 
Regards,
A happy owner

16-18 mpg city driving with the 4.6 V-8? This'll make you feel better...the 3.6 V-6 in the Saturn Outlook was turning 14-15 mpg city driving and it was only rated at 275 hp. I'd take the 4.6 V-8 numbers any day over that!!!
