2022 GENESIS G90 — Complaint #1805714
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE:SOFTWARE:PEDESTRIAN/CYCLIST/OBJECT/OBSTACLE/ RECOGNITION filed April 5, 2022
NHTSA complaint #1805714 (ODI reference 11459655) concerns a 2022 GENESIS G90 and was filed on April 5, 2022. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 1, 2022. The report was geocoded to Texas based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as forward collision avoidance:software:pedestrian/cyclist/object/obstacle/ recognition, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same GENESIS G90 cohort independently describe similar forward collision avoidance:software:pedestrian/cyclist/object/obstacle/ recognition failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2022 GENESIS G90 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
Hello. We came within one foot of running over a jogger and had pedestrian avoidance activated. I read the owners manual and found disclaimer that PA does not work in dark and for other scenarios. The PDA is essentially a daytime pedestrian avoidance and does not work half the day. Indeed many other safety features such as lane keep assist do not perform as sales people disclosed. There needs to be much better disclosure (such as with medications) about limitations of new safety features. I specifically said the reason I was buying a car was to update safety, especially PDA to avoid my grandkids, bikes and joggers. I was not fully disclosed. Many might trade-in cars to update to new features to include those who can barely afford a new car. Then become trapped due to "drive off the lot" depreciation and cannot afford a car which does perform as needed. They may be better served by waiting another year or so until PDA etc would perform as they should. I am blessed and can afford to with
