After your car is running again, you should visit your Genesis dealer to see if your ​battery needs to be replaced. more How to Jump Start Your Genesis in 8 Easy Steps 1. Prepare the Tools You Need to Jump Start a Car Ensure you have a set of jumper cables and another vehicle with a working battery ready to assist you. 2. Position the Vehicles Park the assisting vehicle close to your Genesis, making sure they do not touch. Both vehicles should be turned off with the keys removed. 3.

Next, connect one black clamp to the negative (-) terminal of the assisting vehicle's battery. Attach the other black clamp to an unpainted metal surface on your Genesis, away from the battery. 4.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Your Genesis is a superior vehicle, requiring high-quality maintenance to enable it to perform at its best. Genesis-trained technicians perform a Genesis service and use only Genesis-approved parts to provide your care with the best possible service. As your Genesis dealer, we want to tell you more about some of our services. more 3 Types of Genesis Service Offered at Your Genesis Dealer Brake Maintenance Healthy brakes allow you to control your speed at any time, and they also enable you to stop on a dime if you need to. The braking system uses a combination of pressure and force to bring your car to a stop. Brake maintenance involves examining each component to ensure it operates perfectly every time as it's designed to do. We check the operation of the brake master cylinder, which controls the braking system. Brake fluid is replaced to ensure it provides the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage the braking system. Rubber brake hoses and metal brake lines are checked for leaks, and the brake calipers and rotors are checked for wear or damage. Following a brake service, you'll know your brakes will respond quickly and efficiently every time. Oil Change High-quality oil is essential to keep your engine running perfectly. Oil provides a friction-reducing coating for many components to allow them to work effectively while reducing potential wear. The continuous oil movement cools engine parts which also helps reduce damage. In addition, oil contains various additives that increase engine life by reducing rust and blockages. Older oil becomes less effective, which increases engine wear and tear. We drain the old oil and test its condition. Testing the oil can reveal any potential issues that need to be corrected. Once the oil has drained, we remove and replace the old oil filter.  Our technicians then refill your oil with the correct grade for your Genesis model. Tire Alignment Tire alignment refers to the angle of your tires. The three main angles are the toe, the camber, and the castor. The toe is the position of a tire viewed from the top, and tires may point straight ahead, inward, or outward. Camber is the vertical inclination of a tire, and it may also point inward or outward from the top. Finally, castor is your steering axis angle, which may point forward or backward. Alignment of any tire can alter over time due to driving over rough terrain or even hitting a small pothole. If tire alignment is incorrect, your tires will suffer additional and unnecessary wear and tear. Poor alignment will affect your braking and increase wear on shocks and suspension components. We can correct tire alignment by connecting your Genesis to our alignment machine which carefully and subtly corrects any alignment issues. When you need a service, visit the Genesis experts at Genesis of Waipio in Waipahu, HI.

Getting a flat tire can be daunting, especially if you're unprepared. Knowing what steps to take can help you manage this unexpected event calmly and efficiently. Here's a guide to handling a flat, courtesy of your Genesis dealer. more Pull Over Safely Do not brake abruptly or make sharp turns. Instead, gently reduce your speed and scan for a level, safe area away from traffic to stop your vehicle. Once you have stopped, turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers. Assess the Situation After you've safely parked, determine which tire has gone flat and check it for any obvious punctures or damage. If you're in a risky location or the weather conditions are poor, consider whether it's safer to call for roadside assistance. Prepare to Change the Tire If you decide to change the tire yourself, engage the parking brake and place wheel wedges under the opposite tires to prevent rolling. Loosen the Lug Nuts Before lifting your car with the jack, loosen the lug nuts with the lug wrench or tire iron. Turn the lug nuts counterclockwise just until they're loose but do not remove them completely. Lift the Vehicle Use the jack to lift your vehicle off the ground. Genesis vehicles have specific jack points that can be found in your owner's manual. Ensure that you place the jack correctly to avoid damaging your car. Raise the vehicle until the flat is about six inches off the ground. Remove the Flat Tire Once the car is lifted, remove the lug nuts entirely and keep them in a secure place. Gently pull the flat toward you until it's free from the hub. Mount the Spare Tire Take the spare and align it with the wheel bolts. Then push gently until the bolts show through the rim. Screw the lug nuts on by hand as tightly as possible. Lower the Vehicle and Tighten the Lug Nuts Use the jack to lower your Genesis back to the ground, but don't remove it yet. Using your tire iron, tighten the nuts in a crisscross pattern to ensure even pressure. Once the nuts are completely tight, you can remove the jack. Visit Your Genesis Dealer for Help After you install the spare, your next step should be to visit the dealership for professional assistance. Spare tires are meant for temporary use and may not be suited for long distances or high speeds. Our certified technicians can help you repair or replace your tire and get your car back on the road. Being prepared can make the process of dealing with a flat easier. Visit Genesis of Waipio in Waipahu, HI, for help with all your tire needs.

All models come with 10 airbags and a tire pressure monitoring system. The E-SC model also has a tire mobility kit. An all-wheel drive drivetrain is standard for both trims. 3.5T The 3.5T trim has a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine with an output of 375 horsepower and 391 lb-ft of torque. This engine is matched with key mechanical features such as an eight-speed automatic transmission, an electronically controlled suspension with road preview, selectable drive modes, and ventilated front and rear disc brakes with Silver calipers.

A Genesis service is different from a service at an independent mechanic. Our technicians are Genesis-trained, which makes them experts at investigating, identifying, and fixing any possible issue. Their specialist knowledge enables them to identify potential situations that could become future problems. We also only use Genesis-approved parts in all repairs. As your Genesis dealer, we'd like to tell you about some of our services. more Types of Genesis Service at Your Genesis Dealer Fluid Checks Your Genesis contains many different fluids besides fuel. These fluids include coolant, oil, transmission fluid, and brake fluid. Some of these fluids, oil, are slowly consumed as they work. Each of these fluids has an important role in your vehicle's performance. All these fluids will eventually need replacement as their condition slowly degrades. Old coolant, for example, becomes corrosive, and it can damage your cooling system. Old transmission fluid provides less hydraulic power than it should, and this will cause transmission shifting problems. During a fluid check, we draw some of the relevant fluid and test its condition to determine if there are any other issues. We then drain and replace the old fluid. We also remove and replace any filters. Brake Servicing When you hit the brakes, they should engage almost instantaneously and bring your Genesis to a stop. Over time, brake components can become worn, rusted, or damaged. Damaged components will reduce your braking speed. In addition, certain parts of the system need to be replaced regularly, like the brake pads and brake fluid. A brake service involves checking every part of the braking system. Our technicians examine the brake master cylinder, which controls your brakes. They check the condition of metal brake lines and rubber brake hoses and replace the brake fluid. The brake calipers, rotors, and brake pads are checked for signs of damage. After a brake service, you can confidently drive away, knowing that your brakes are in excellent working condition again. Starter Replacement The starter is responsible for physically cranking your engine. When you punch the start button, an electrical charge is sent from the battery to the starter solenoid. The solenoid then powers the starter, which cranks the engine to enable the combustion process to begin. A problem with the starter is serious, as a failed starter will prevent your Genesis from moving. The starter can fail, and we'll replace it to fix this problem. It's more common, however, for the starter solenoid to wear out. If this happens, the damaged solenoid will receive power from the battery but won't pass it to the starter. We'll examine the solenoid and install a new one to enable the starter to work normally again. Booking a service is quick, and your Genesis will receive the standard of care it deserves.

Maintaining the inside of your Genesis is just as important as keeping its exterior looking polished. A little interior car care can preserve the luxurious feel of your cabin, ensuring it remains as inviting and comfortable as the day you drove it home from the Genesis dealer. more Regular Cleaning: The Foundation of Interior Car Care Regular cleaning is fundamental. Dust and dirt can accumulate quickly, embedding in the upholstery and building up in crevices, leading to premature wear. Use a microfiber cloth to dust off the dashboard, console, and other surfaces. For leather interiors, apply a leather cleaner and conditioner every few months. Vacuum the seats, carpets, and floor mats regularly to remove dirt and debris. Protecting the Dashboard The dashboard can suffer from sun damage, leading to fading and cracking over time. Protect it by applying a UV protectant regularly. Whenever possible, park your Genesis in the shade or use a windshield sun cover to minimize exposure to direct sunlight. Caring for Upholstery Whether your Genesis has leather or fabric upholstery, keeping it clean and conditioned is vital to help it last longer. For fabric seats, use a suitable upholstery cleaner. For stains, opt for a spot cleaner followed by thorough drying to avoid mildew. Leather seats require a bit more attention with regular conditioning to prevent drying and cracking. Window and Glass Care Keeping the windows and windshield clean enhances visibility and contributes to the overall cleanliness of the interior. Use an automotive glass cleaner for a streak-free finish. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners, as they can damage your tint. Managing Odors A fresh-smelling interior is just as important as a clean one. Avoid smoking inside your vehicle. If you have pets, consider using seat covers and regularly airing out your car. For persistent odors, a deep clean of the upholstery and carpets, combined with an odor eliminator, can work wonders. Floor Mat Maintenance Floor mats protect your vehicle's carpeting from dirt, spills, and wear. Regularly remove them for cleaning. Shake out the dirt. Rubber mats can be washed with soap and water, while carpeted ones require a carpet cleaner. Ensure they are completely dry before placing them back in the vehicle to prevent mold and mildew growth. Get Professional Detailing at the Genesis Dealer While regular maintenance can keep your Genesis's interior looking good, professional detailing a couple of times a year can rejuvenate the cabin and freshen up areas that are difficult to clean and protect at home. Our professionals can deep clean carpets, upholstery, and air vents, and spot potential issues before they become problems. The effort you put into maintaining your car's interior will enhance your driving experience and preserve your vehicle's value.

You've researched and narrowed down your list of preferred Genesis models. The next step is to take them for a spin to evaluate how well they align with your expectations. Before you do, check out these tips from your Genesis dealer to get the most out of a test drive. more Tips From Your Genesis Dealer: What To Look for When You Test Drive a Genesis Checklist When considering which model will suit your specific wants and needs, make a detailed list of the inside features that matter most to you, and bring it along when you drive the models you are considering. For instance, if comfort is your top priority, you might prioritize features like plush seating and a smooth ride. A checklist will help you evaluate how well each model matches your requirements while driving it around. Route It's a good idea to plan a route and choose roads where you'd like to take the cars you are going to drive through their paces. It's also essential to drive the vehicle in traffic, down the highway, on hilly and mountainous roads, and smooth and bumpy surfaces to get an idea of how the car performs. Operation Before driving a car, ask the salesperson to describe any special features so that you can familiarize yourself with them and avoid getting distracted while driving. Ensure the electronic accessories are easy to operate and the display screens are easy to view. Check if the mirror, seat, and radio can be accessed without stretching, you can reach the primary controls, and the pedals and seat adjustments suit your preferences. Visibility When you are driving, consider your visibility. Look at how well you can see around you, including through the rear window. Are there any blind spots that could be dangerous? If you struggle to see clearly in all directions, check if the vehicle has blindspot monitors to assist you. Performance While on the road, test the engine's power by accelerating, passing other vehicles when it's safe, and merging with highway traffic. Is the acceleration fast enough for your needs? Or does the car have more power than you require? Pay attention to the smoothness and timing of the upshifting and downshifting. Try making a range of left and right turns to assess how the car handles. Are you finding the steering wheel comfortable and responsive to your touch? Braking Test both soft and hard braking and pay attention to how the brakes respond. Remember to give the salesperson a heads-up before testing the brakes. As you brake, the brakes should neither be sensitive nor unresponsive but provide the stopping power you need smoothly. Parking Try to parallel park better to check the car's angles and potential blindspots you may encounter daily. Parallel parking will give you a good idea if it's difficult to park the car, the turning radius, and whether the front end scrapes on parking curbs. To find the ideal Genesis model, take the ones you like for a 30-minute drive and put them through their paces.
