Genesis GV70 2026-2027 (Redesign): Expert Vent Glass Replacement
The 2026-2027 Genesis GV70 redesign brought some heavy styling updates, but that rear vent glass is just as vulnerable to break-ins and flying road debris as the older models. If you are staring at shattered glass right now, don't stress. At AlexWindshield, we handle this exact repair on a daily basis.
You don't even need to drive it to a shop with plastic taped over the hole. We run mobile auto glass units all over the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), spending most of our time out in Vaughan, Richmond Hill, and Markham. We come straight to your driveway or workplace and get the job done right there.
How We Replace the GV70 Vent Glass
Swapping out the vent glass on these newer GV70s takes a steady hand. The trim pieces are incredibly tight, and Genesis uses heavy-duty urethane from the factory. Here is exactly how I tackle the job:
- Interior Protection: First thing I do is lay down heavy drop cloths over your leather seats and door panels. Shattered tempered glass gets everywhere, so I thoroughly vacuum the interior and the inside of the door cavity before taking anything apart.
- Glass and Trim Removal: I carefully pry back the interior molding and exterior trim using specialized composite tools so I don't scratch your paint. Then, I cut out the remaining broken glass chunks and the old factory adhesive.
- Surface Prep: This is where a lot of guys cut corners. I scrape the pinch weld down to a flat, clean surface, wipe it down with a specialized glass solvent, and apply a high-quality primer to any bare metal. This stops rust before it even starts.
- Installation: I lay down a thick, even bead of premium automotive-grade urethane adhesive. The new vent glass is set perfectly into place, aligned exactly with the factory trim lines, and secured while the urethane cures.
