Short answer
Among Genesis G90 model years through 2024, 2020 and 2021 have the fewest NHTSA recall campaigns on record (1) and 2023 has the most (6). Recall counts are not a reliability score; they show how often a safety defect had to be corrected.

Genesis G90: Analysis
How to read recall counts
A recall campaign is a safety defect that the manufacturer or NHTSA required to be fixed. Counts depend on how long a model year has been on the road, so recent years look better than they will in time; this page therefore ranks only model years through 2024. A high count can also mean a manufacturer reacts quickly to small defects, so it says little about breakdowns or running costs.
What the recalls were about
Across all model years, the systems named most often in Genesis G90 recalls are electrical system (10), engine and engine cooling (8), fuel system, gasoline (5), seat belts (5) and visibility (1). The number in brackets counts model-year entries, so one campaign that covers several years is counted in each.
FAQ: Genesis G90 Best and Worst Years
What are the best years for the Genesis G90?
By NHTSA recall campaigns, 2020 and 2021 are the cleanest model years through 2024, with 1 each.
Which Genesis G90 model years have the most recalls?
2023 has the most, with 6 recall campaigns each.
Does a recall mean the car is unreliable?
No. A recall is a safety correction filed with NHTSA, usually repaired free of charge. It does not measure breakdowns or running costs, so use these counts together with a vehicle history report and an inspection.
Sources & methodology
Recalls and crash ratings come from the NHTSA datasets and APIs, retrieved on 2026-10-03. A record counts for this model when its make matches and its model name starts with the same words as "G90", so variants such as body styles are included. Only model years from 2000 are used, and each recall campaign is counted once per model year. The data does not say whether an individual car was repaired, so check a specific car by VIN.
