The 2012 Hyundai Genesis offered at Hyundai of St. Augustine, a top Hyundai dealer near Jacksonville, FL, is the highest-ranked model in the midsize premium car category. When the 2012 J.D. Power and Associates Vehicle Dependability Study (VDS) was released, it showed that Hyundai finished ninth overall, displaying the company’s commitment to quality.

The Genesis sedan arrived in the 2009 model year at dealerships around the nation including our Hyundai dealer serving Jacksonville, FL. It earned Hyundai’s first-ever North American Car of the Year award. J.D. Power and Associates surveys the original owners three years after their vehicle purchase. So 2012 was the first year the Genesis was included in the VDS, and it was the only category award recipient in its first year of eligibility.

“Our goal is to design and build cars that meet and exceed consumers’ expectations not only off the showroom floor, but through the duration of their ownership experience. Earning Hyundai’s first-ever top 10 finish in the J.D. Power and Associates Vehicle Dependability Study demonstrates that our efforts are paying dividends,” said Erwin Raphael, director of engineering and quality, Hyundai Motor America.
