Wondering if anyone else is experiencing something similar. My vehicle has about 8000km and I recently noticed that under light breaking the transmission seems jerky. I will be applying constant break pressure and then it seems as though the transmission kicks in and will slow the car faster (causing a jerky feeling) than I was breaking. If I come to a quicker stop I do not seem to notice the issue.

Are you in sport mode? If so, that’s intentional. Try a different drive mode.

No I notice this in all driving modes.

No I notice this in all driving modes.

I have noticed an occasional clunking into first just as I roll to a stop but not all the time and is something recent. Now have 4500 miles. Have not visited dealer yet

Never had a problem; smoothest transmission I’ve ever had. Here’s a novel idea; contact your service dept, explain the problem, have them drive the car (with you preferably) and ask them what the heck is wrong and please fix it…….just a thought.

@DL1999, @zvakanaka, @scatGV80 have any of you reached out to your dealers yet? Or contacted Genesis via email, chat, phone? Would be interested in what they have to say and will do to address the issue.

There were shifting problems last year in South Korea last year that forced a recall overseas, it was because of a software error in the Stop & Go. Nothing I can see in the US though.

The clunk is only a minor issue to me. An average driver wouldn't even notice it. When i bring it in for the first service yes, i will mention it. I feel we are nit picking when this vehicle is so good and the only thing i could notice is the down shift into first gear is rather clunky.

I had the same issue (same transmission) in my Kia Stinger. Ask your dealer to reset the transmission adaptive values.
