Replacing the Sunroof on Your 2023-2027 Genesis Electrified GV70
When the panoramic sunroof on your Genesis Electrified GV70 takes a hit, it is a messy situation. I have been replacing auto glass for years, and let me tell you, the glass on these 2023 to 2027 EV models is heavy, complex, and tied right into the vehicle's electrical system. You cannot just slap a new piece of glass up there and hope for the best. You need a technician who knows how to handle luxury EV trims without snapping clips, shorting out sensors, or scratching up your roof.

My Step-by-Step Replacement Process
Here is exactly how I handle a sunroof replacement on the Electrified GV70 to make sure it functions like it just rolled off the factory floor:
- Protecting the Interior: Shattered tempered glass gets everywhere. Before I grab a single tool, I lay down heavy-duty protective covers over your leather seats, center console, and floorboards. I vacuum out every last shard from the tracks so the new glass glides without grinding.
- Safe Removal: I carefully drop the headliner slightly to access the mounting hardware and disconnect the EV-specific wiring harnesses for the sunroof motor. Then, I cut through the old factory urethane to lift the damaged panel out safely.
- Surface Cleaning: I scrape the old adhesive right down to the pinch weld. The frame has to be completely spotless. If you leave old dirt, rust, or sloppy glue behind, the new sunroof is going to leak the next time it rains.
- Primer and Adhesive: I brush on a high-quality glass primer to prep the surface and prevent rust on any bare metal. Once that flashes off, I lay down a thick, consistent bead of premium, fast-curing urethane adhesive.
- Installation: Setting the new glass is heavy work on this Genesis. We drop the large panoramic panel perfectly into place, bolt down the hardware, reconnect the electronics, and run a full test on the track alignment to make sure it opens and closes smoothly.
