Any experience with this malfunction?

Got a CEL this morning. Pulled the code and it’s an “Active Grill Shutter” issue. That was one of the design changes I was worried about with the G30. Any one have previous experience with this? I’ll start with fuses and go from there.

Don’t clear that code. Take the car to your dealer and they will fix under warranty. This was an extended warranty issue.

Thanks for this piece of information! I actually couldn’t clear it. It said it is not permitted to be cleared!
