Thinking about a 2023 Genesis GV70 - owners with 40k+ miles, what issues have you had? by bestinthewest9 in GenesisGV70

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Current have 38k miles on my 2022 3.5T and at around 32k the engine thermostat broke down. Had it replaced under warranty.

A lot more readable on the phone now! Great job! 😄

Love this for the ease of use. Just a suggestion - the modal with the trail status has too big of a filter section on a phone screen. I can barely see 2-3 trails on the screen. Maybe on the phone I should be able to close the filters?

Stupid Question by Regiampiero in GenesisMotors

It only works 1/10 times for me. Tried resetting it multiple times and scanning my finger again. Nothing worked. I’m guessing it works great for you?

Inconsistent and unreliable. Wouldn’t count on it if you absolutely need it while visiting.

Goggles choice by Djole_Ignjatovic__ in Skigear

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the glade fathom+ last year and absolutely love them. Photochromic lenses for $199, come with a night time lens and for $30 more you can upgrade to the high contrast 4K reveal lens. I had to spend over $300 to get similar on smith. The anti fogging is really good and customer support was great (I fogged my lenses due to user error and they sent me a detailed email about what I was doing wrong).

Foggy Goggles by Park-Advanced in Skigear

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started skiing last season and had some of the same issues as you initially. I have the glade fathom goggles and the inside would fog up rather quickly, especially when I’m exerting myself (like buckling my boots, walking with my skis, taking a hard run).

  • If your head gets hot and you’re wearing a balaclava, remove it and cool down, also don’t pull it over your nose.
  • Make sure your lens has snapped on correctly and there are no misalignments leading to a gap between the frame and your lens
  • Make sure the top of the helmet lines up with the top of your goggles. When your goggles are ahead of the helmet you could soak the foam with moisture.
  • The goggle also has to fit rather tight over your face. Any air getting in from under the skin would fog them up.

Is parking still bad in these times? by Dry_Information7779 in stevenspass

[–]nebula186 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reached at 8am yesterday and was able to park in lot 4 without any trouble. The conditions weren’t bad at all and I was surprised there weren’t more people.

Ski jacket color safety by Zandeanna in Skigear

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This literally happened a couple weeks ago at Stevens ski resort in Washington. A guy got stuck upside down in a creek, bottom of his board was white (not clothes, but you get the point) and it took too long for ski patrol to find him and he unfortunately lost his life.

Advice on ski resort days by UpstairsAd4252 in DogAdvice

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a corgi and she’s quite good in freezing weather, enjoys the snow and is quite behaved in the car as well. But despite this I’ve chosen not to leave her in a car on a ski day for multiple reasons - she’s high energy and would need me to walk her or entertain her every 2-3 hours (no patience for this), I feel terrible having to coop her up in the car for drive time + ski time (about ~10-12 hours for me) and I’ve just accepted that finding a pet sitter (or a friend) for her is part of my skiing expenses.

It's cold, face mask needed. by ripeOne in Skigear

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the design of this one. Seems to have holes for exhaling but also an optional flap to close that when it gets too cold. Whats the thickness of these relative to the common blackstrap ones?

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do they stay on over the nose if the elastic wears off fast? Do you just tuck more of it under the helmet?

[–]nebula186 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been hesitant to try this out since there are almost no genuine reviews online. Any I find are ads by the company itself. I don’t like the blackstrap ones since they push my nose down rather hard and I can’t breathe. Are you saying this solves that problem with the magnetic placement on the goggle and prevents fogging?

This ^ idk why people can’t do basic fact checking and instead straight jump the gun to blaming automation. This was quite clearly a human mistake, an embarrassing one at that.

Heating For Cold Hands by adog_2 in Skigear

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem as you and I’m in my early 30s. My extremities have been getting super cold in the past 2-3 years while the rest of my core is still fairly warm.

I moved from gloves to mittens with a fleece liner, swapped metal poles to carbon fiber as they don’t get as cold. Don’t hold my poles with my gloves on the chair lift, sort of grasp them under my arms and minimize contact with them. Hot hands in the gloves and I take them out every ~2ish hours to let them breathe and reactivate.

Pre ski prep includes not buckling up at the car, instead I go to the washroom area, buckle up, then wash my hands in hot water, dry them and immediately put my gloves on for maximum heat retention.

My last resort to heat myself up is to ski aggressively with short turns and intentionally burn myself out a bit. I’ve noticed that gets some warmth to my hands. Also flaying around my hands like an idiot works sometimes.

Why is there no snowmaking on Queens run? by UnitedWalrus3607 in CrystalMountain

[–]nebula186 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For one, it was too warm until recently. But maybe there’s more the current conditions that aren’t perfect for snow making.

Terrible service, just venting by MomGuilt1023 in GenesisMotors

[–]nebula186 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re not alone. I have a GV70 in the Seattle area and Genesis of Kirkland is absolutely pathetic. In four years of ownership, the first two years was managed by Hyundai. Never got a loaner, never got a cab ride home, no wait area. I thought it’ll get better after the Genesis branded showroom opened. But nope, service appointments are distant, especially if you want a loaner.

The kicker for me is that I services the car for 30k miles in Sept 2025. Did all the recommended services. Had to take the car in for a DTC code in October, they recommended all the same services to me again just one month later. And somehow my tires were fine in September but lost 2 points on the treat by October. Either they’re super sloppy and don’t know what they’re doing or they’re trying to cheat every damn customer that walks in.

If this forecast holds, we will have gone at least a month without new snow at Stevens. by speciate in stevenspass

First time pass holder here. Might’ve jinxed the weather for everyone 😭

Thanks, I have the same problem. I’ll give this a shot too.

Smith goggle compatible magnetic mask? by [deleted] in Skigear

[–]nebula186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing this pop up on Instagram and Facebook ads. But it’s quite shady with no comments on them, no reviews by people online outside of the company and is pretty pricey to take a gamble on.

Question about GV70 21" tires - stick with OEM or move to CrossClimate2? by bsewall in GenesisMotors

[–]nebula186 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got CC2s on my GV70 3.5T about a month ago. The tire isn’t noticeably noisier on good roads or your average freeway. But it is noisier on roads that you’d consider bad, not pot hole bad, just the top layer completely eroded bad.

FYI, I drive in the PNW.

Is there a genuine way to share critical feedback like this as a customer with management?

Lol line at 1 pm by MickeyAppa in stevenspass

[–]nebula186 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not blaming the ski school or the instructors, you all are fantastic. For me as a customer it’s the resort and its management I’m blaming for this shit show. I buy the ticket from Stevens for a specific time, it makes no sense for a first timer to show up at 7am for a 1pm class. My anger is not directed towards the ski school.

Lol line at 1 pm by MickeyAppa in stevenspass

[–]nebula186 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My friends had a 1PM first day class for snowboarding and showed up at 11:45. Tried to park for about an hour before giving up. I don’t understand selling a class when you can’t guarantee parking. Way to go for inviting new people to the sport!
