2025 Hyundai Palisade: Recalls, Complaints & California Lemon Law

Antilock braking system is malfunctioning. Significant increase in stopping distance, and especially on uneven or wet surfaces. The car shutters and shakes while stopping. We have almost hit a deer, had trouble stopping at intersections, and did not stop in a timely manner while behind another vehicle. General fear knowing if brakes are firmly pressed that the car is unable to stop quickly (as expected with other vehicles).

NHTSA #11703106

I had brought my car in because it feels like the antilock brakes kick in on uneven surfaces. I was told there is no issue. This happens again 2 days ago. I have had it happen where I almost hit the person in front of me, the car will not stop. Dry roads. It’s on bumpy roads, more often is a slight downhill. No lights on dash for antilock brakes coming on.

NHTSA #11699496

I just had at least my 6th occurrence with my new 2025 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy Night Edition where, while braking at a slow speed, my abs kicked in and wouldn’t stop my car despite pushing the brake to the floor. Finally it abruptly stopped. In all situations, the road surfaces seemed to be slightly uneven or slightly bumpy. Each time this happened, I was traveling very slow and no faster than 10-15 mph. I’ve had my car for less than 5 months and now has happened at least 6 times. I nearly missed rear ending the vehicle in front of me in all cases because the abs was aggressively pulsating but not stopping until almost hitting the vehicle in front of me.

NHTSA #11693627

2025 Palisade 1,700 miles. Brand new. When I approached a stop sign, there was a small pothole just before it. When braking towards this sign, the front left tire traveled over the pothole. The car then shook violently and braking appeared to have halted for a moment. A search online revealed many people having similar issues with potholes/uneven roads and the brakes not functioning during this shaking period. It is suspected this is an antilock brake system. The issue is that it is too sensitive. Needs a recall to retune the sensitivity of this.

NHTSA #11691984

The brakes on the car almost caused an accident where we would have rear ended the car in front of us. We were in a line of cars exiting a gravel parking lot traveling 5-10 mph. I pressed on the brake pedal as the car in front of us began to brake and our antilock brakes engaged and our car continued to travel forward towards the car in front of us. Luckily the car in front of us pulled out onto the road and we did not hit them. Similar issues have happened a handful of times since buying in March of 2025. I am an experienced driver and am familiar with how antilock brakes work and when they should engage, these instances have not been such cases. It seems it will only be a matter of time until this causes accidents. Another instance was when approaching a stop sign and hitting rumble strips in the road. This improper engaging of antilock brakes can very easily lead to car not stopping in time putting myself, my family, and other vehicles traveling on road at risk. I called the dealer and they said there is no issue and the antilock brakes are acting as they should. I have owned several cars over my lifetime and never had antilock brakes engage in these same instances. Upon investigation online, other drivers are experiencing similar issues and Hyundai is denying the issue. I have an appointment scheduled to get it looked at. There were no warnings, messages or other symptoms of the problem. How many people are going to have to report the same issue or how many people are going to have to be hurt before action is taken.

NHTSA #11693298

When driving at a low speed and over an uneven driving surface attempting to brake, the abs system unnecessarily engages and causes the car to lock up and skid instead of braking. This almost caused a car accident where my car would not stop like normal and almost skid into a stationary vehicle with an increased stopping distance until it stopped with a jolt. There is a class action lawsuit on this issue in Ohio and New York.

NHTSA #11694112

It doesn’t brake on uneven surfaces because of ABS sensor issue. This has been reported by many owners of 2023-2025 Hyundai Palisade.

NHTSA #11693206

While gently slowing/braking on warm and dry pavement, the vehicle proceeded over bumpy railroad tracks which seemingly activated the Anti-lock brake system and prohibited the vehicle from stopping effectively. I had to turn the vehicle away from the vehicle stopped ahead of me because my vehicle was not stopping in time and I narrowly avoiding an accident due to this situation. Due to this inappropriate activation of the ABS system, the vehicle took significantly longer to come to a stop, and once the ABS stopped pulsating, the vehicle abruptly stopped, however I already had to turn away from the vehicle in front of me to avoid rear-ending it. This is an exceptionally unsafe situation that will inevitable cause injury or death should someone be driving fast up to the car in front of them and not expect this to occur. This is an extremely unexpected vehicle equipment response on a perfectly dry road without any debris/etc to cause tire slippage. Having done some online research of the issue, this seems to be a frequent problem experienced by other Palisade owners however Hyundai is not doing anything about it. We will have the vehicle inspected when we bring it in for the recent recall that Hyundai identified regarding seatbelts (however no fix has been identified for it as of yet).

NHTSA #11690224

pulling out of a dark parking lot at night, slowing to a stop at the stop sign. The road was bumpy and the abs kicked in for no reason, the brakes started juddering like crazy and the vehicle refused to stop. A loaded pickup was driving on the street and I was headed right in its path. I twice tried releasing the pedal and then reapplying it. the send time finally worked and the car came to a hard stop. All occupants were thrown forward. Seven year old in the back in a booster was complaining that the seat belt hurt her neck from the force of the stop.

BRAKES WON'T WORK AS EXPECTED ON SLOPES/UNEVEN ROADS

NHTSA #11690599

The ABS system has malfunctioned 4 times now while braking when going over an uneven surface- railroad tracks, uneven older roads in the area. The car will start shaking and lunge forward even with the brake all the way down to floor. This has caused me to almost hit 4 vehicles now. Yes, it is available for inspection. My safety, as well as others on the road are put at risk until this issue is fixed. The first dealership i took the vehicle to on 8/28/25 told me there were no issues and couldn't find anything wrong. The problem has since been replicated by the 2nd dealer who has looked at the vehicle 9/22/25. No warnings or messages popped up on the dash at any occurrence. Their response was that they called the manufacturer and explained the issue and they were told that this is normal and is intended to do this- continue to move towards other vehicles when brake is engaged. This does not seem to be correct and appears that there is even a class-action lawsuit for the same issue that was filed early 2025.

NHTSA #11688898

Yesterday while driving over train tracks and braking for a red light in the distance, my brakes pulsed as if I were on ice and my car could not stop. The road conditions were dry, with the temperature outside around 75 degrees. I was driving 20mph max and nearly hit the car in front of us as my brakes would not engage. My daughter and I were both terrified. My car has around 13K miles on it. Since purchasing the car last October I frequently feel the ABS pulse while driving over bumps and braking at the same time. I do believe this could be replicated. I thought it was just a quirk of the car or a computer glitch that occurs when braking on rougher terrain. But yesterday while braking I was unable to stop, nearly causing a collision. Luckily the car ahead moved forward so we avoided a crash. There were no warning lamps or messages. I'm very scared to drive this car now. Please help.

NHTSA #11687063

Was driving down a side street going less than 20 mph, came to a stop sign and attempted to brake. The vehicle did not brake, and upon pressing the brake pedal harder the ABS system activated. Vehicle did not stop for the stop sign and ended up partially in the oncoming traffic lane.

NHTSA #11686698

When going over a bump/rough pavement at a slow speed and applying the brakes, there is a loud grinding noise and vibration on the brake pedal. The vehicle does not brake as fast as normal. This leads to extended braking distance. This has happened three times to us and haven’t been able to recreate. We are taking it in to the dealership to be evaluated.

NHTSA #11685972

On multiple instances at speeds varying for 5mph to 25mph while braking on uneven roads, the ABS system kicked on. The brakes were vibrating and the brake pedal was stiff causing increased brake time. On one occasion it nearly caused a car crash.

NHTSA #11685728

I experienced a partial brake failure as I was attempting to leave a shopping center parking lot. The traffic light was red and there were no cars in front of me. I was traveling at approximately 10-15 mph. As I approached the light, I applied the brakes. The car started to shutter and the car kept moving forward. It’s as if the brakes were being applied off and on rapidly. The car kept moving forward. That’s when I applied a lot of pressure on the brake pedal to try and get the car to stop. It eventually stopped but by then, my vehicle was partly into the intersection. Had another vehicle been in front of me, my vehicle would certainly have made contact. There were no warning lights or other indications that the vehicle was having issues. The vehicle is brand new and has less than 800 miles on the odometer. The road surface was rather smooth; however, vehicles exiting the parking lot must drive over a drain grate. The braking issue happened as I drove over the grate. The grate is slightly lower than the paved road. Please see pictures. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership for evaluation. An internet search shows that other owners have experienced the same issue on 2023-2025 Palisades models.

NHTSA #11686097

ABS braking issue at low speeds on uneven roads. I was coming out of an alley, with fences on both sides. NOT driving fast. It's an alley. At the end of the alley they had one of those speed bump plastic things, not a speed bump, but something to protect COAX/cable being temporarily run. The alley goes to a T and the top of the T is a county road/2 way traffic that is like 60 MPH. Coming to the stop the front felt like it tripped over the bump, then the brake pedal did basically nothing. The ABS was like stuck on and no pumping or standing on the brake helped. I went out into the road and hoped the cross traffic had time to stop.

NHTSA #11684695

Anti-Lock braking system seems to malfunction on certain surfaces causing brakes to not work properly. Vehicle seems like it is not going to stop or stopping seems to take uncomfortably long.

NHTSA #11687178

I have had multiple issues when it comes to braking on uneven roads, going over railroad tracks, and going over speed bumps in parking lots. The vehicle will start shaking erratically and lunge forward into oncoming traffic. No warnings or lights came on either. I have now taken my vehicle in to 3 different dealers to have it inspected and have had the issue replicated several times by a 1 of the dealers. The service manager from the dealer i originally bought the vehicle from refused to even inspect the vehicle and told me the only way they will even look at it was if I brought a video showing the issue of the vehicle lunging forward into oncoming traffic. They also stated that this wasn't a warranty issue and that I would be billed for it. The vehicle is brand brand new 2025 Palisade(2 months old) with 2,000 miles. I was advised to open a case with Hyundai and was then told by the case worker that this is how the vehicle is supposed to operate and there are no issues. After further research to see if anyone else has reported this issue, I found 2 class-action lawsuits filed and over 100 complaints filed with the NHSTA as well. I guess I'm not the only one having this exact issue. This is a serious safety issue and should be addressed.

NHTSA #11694150

When coming to a stop, car will rumble and brake pedal stops working. Seems like abs issue. Doesn’t happen often but happens enough to be unsafe if cannot be replicated to fix it

NHTSA #11682707

Happened to both my wife and I. As we attempt to stop the vehicle (for her at a stop sign, for me in a parking space), the car engages ABS and the car won't stop. Feels like you're trying to brake on ice. Very dangerous, I almost drove into a wall, she almost hit someone. We discovered that they have identified this as a problem and have offered no solution. I was told by the dealer "just tell your wife to go slow over speed bumps," and I corrected him that it seems to have nothing to do with speed bumps or not. And besides, that is not a correction that will make the car safe. Also discovered a class action lawsuit filed on May 9th 2025 for this exact issue. Many many driver reports online.

NHTSA #11688626

While applying the brakes on an uneven surface the brakes chattered/shuddered and shook the vehicle.

NHTSA #11681030

1.A rattle from the brake pedal (pulse, vibration) when braking on rough roads. 2. I am not feeling safe and for my family when the problem occurs. 3. The dealership service center (keating hyundai) stated " Could not recreate concern". 4. I purchased the vehicle new. I did not know if the dealership inspected before it was sold to me. 5. No, there is no warning lamps.

NHTSA #11690981

Any time I apply my brakes on an uneven road, gravel road, dirt road, etc. my antilock brakes enact, and it feels like my brakes grind and shake. The car doesn’t stop but almost shakes instead. This has been happening frequently and consistently when I need to brake on these types of roads.

NHTSA #11680612

The antilock system activates on dry pavement at low speeds, often when decelerating to stop before leaving a parking lot. Braking distance is increased from about 5 expected feet to 12-15 feet. This is scary as it could put the vehicle into cross traffic. It has happened about 1/month so far

NHTSA #11677857

ABS on this vehicle is activating extremely aggressively while driving normally on regular street roads, The car shakes and slides and does not stop until the abs stops doing its thing the distance is very far compared to regular braking. This happened multiple times even when coming to a stop sign i found myself in the middle of the intersection and almost got hit definitely not safe whatsoever. The car is fairly new I'm just worried if its doing this often on regular roads what would it do when it snows. I saw online many people are having this very same issue and Hyundai should fix and do a recall on this matter.

NHTSA #11692222

The Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) is severely malfunctioning. When driving on stone roads, gravel, or uneven terrain, the brakes either fail to engage properly, over-react, or cause sudden grinding and shaking. This results in an unpredictable stopping distance. The issue creates an immediate risk of collision, particularly when braking on gravel, uneven surfaces, or potentially snow and ice. The vehicle sometimes requires a much longer stopping distance than expected, and at other times it locks up or nearly stops abruptly. This unpredictable braking response could cause rear-end accidents or loss of control. The issue has been reproduced multiple times during my daily commute on stone roads to my job. I have informed the dealer of the problem, though a complete confirmation or resolution has not yet been provided. The dealer has been made aware of the issue, but to my knowledge, the vehicle has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representative - only by the dealership themselves. No warning lamps or dashboard messages appear before or during the problem. The symptoms first became noticeable shortly after purchasing the vehicle in July 2025, and they continue to occur regularly whenever the vehicle is driven on stone or uneven terrain. The vehicle was just purchased July 19, 2025 and is currently in the shop at the dealership right now where they are telling me they cannot find an issue.

NHTSA #11685619

ABS activates when pressing the break slightly bumpy or uneven pavement causing a longer then normal stopping distance.

NHTSA #11676454

While turning into a driveway at low speed (approximately 5 mph), I attempted to brake, but the brakes did not respond properly. The vehicle began to bump and resist braking, and failed to stop when expected, causing me to hit a fence. This model is equipped with automatic braking and collision avoidance systems that should have activated, but they failed to engage. This was a concerning failure for a brand-new vehicle equipped with advanced safety systems. Hyundai has not provided any clear answers or support. This appears to be a malfunction in the braking or electronic safety systems, and I believe it poses a serious risk to other drivers and pedestrians

NHTSA #11676739

I am submitting this supplemental complaint regarding a repeated and dangerous brake failure in my 2025 Hyundai Palisade. This is a follow-up to my original complaint submitted in July 2025. On multiple occasions while driving at low speeds (around 5 mph), including turning into driveways or approaching intersections, the braking system failed to respond properly. The brake pedal felt like it lost connection — similar to how a bike slips when its brake fails. The vehicle kept moving forward even while I was applying the brake. This nearly caused accidents several times. I believe the automatic emergency braking system (AEB) also failed to engage. One incident caused me to hit a fence, resulting in a small dent. Hyundai is now refusing to repair the safety systems under warranty because of that dent — even though the dent was a result of the brake malfunction. I brought the vehicle to an authorized Hyundai service center, and they refused to cover the issue under warranty or provide a loaner vehicle, leaving me to drive a potentially dangerous car. I also want to note that I have seen multiple recent NHTSA complaints from other Hyundai Palisade owners describing similar brake issues. This suggests a wider pattern of brake failure, which must be urgently investigated before someone is seriously injured or worse. Hyundai has failed to properly investigate the issue or assist me in any meaningful way. This vehicle is still under warranty, and I am unable to safely use it while they delay responsibility.

They are failing to repair the recall from the seat belts. The new estimate is September 2026 and I am waiting for this recall since last year 2025

NHTSA #11737570

To Whom It May Concern: I am submitting this complaint regarding a serious and ongoing safety defect involving the second-row driver-side seat belt in my Hyundai Palisade. I purchased this vehicle new on December 11, 2025, after being informed that the applicable seat belt recall repair had already been completed by the dealership on December 4, 2025. Despite the recall repair being performed prior to sale, the second-row driver-side seat belt continues to malfunction. On multiple occasions while the vehicle has been in motion, the seat belt has unexpectedly unlatched on its own while occupied by a passenger. This creates a severe safety hazard and leaves the passenger completely unprotected during travel. The issue has occurred repeatedly and has made the second-row driver-side seat unsafe to use. This defect is especially concerning because the vehicle was sold as repaired and safe following completion of the recall campaign. The continued failure of the seat belt system raises concerns that the recall remedy may be ineffective or incomplete. I am requesting that Hyundai Motor America and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigate this matter immediately. I also request that Hyundai provide a permanent repair solution and determine whether additional Hyundai Palisade vehicles may still be experiencing similar seat belt latch failures even after recall service has been completed. Vehicle Information: •Year/Model: Hyundai Palisade •VIN: [XXX] •Purchase Date: [XXX] •Recall Repair Completion Date: December 4, 2025 •Selling Dealer: Holler Hyundai 1150 N Orlando Ave Winter Park FL 32789 •Current Mileage: 8,169 I am extremely concerned about the safety of my passengers and believe this defect presents a significant risk of injury in the event of sudden braking or a collision. Please contact me regarding next steps and investigation of this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I am submitting this formal complaint regarding an active safety recall affecting the seat belt system of my 2025 Hyundai Palisade XRT. Hyundai has acknowledged the existence of the defect. However, I was informed by a Hyundai customer service representative [XXX] ), under case number XXX, that there is currently no available remedy or repair for this recall. This situation is deeply concerning, as it involves a critical safety component intended to protect occupants in the event of a collision. Due to the nature of this defect, I do not feel safe operating the vehicle under any circumstances. Despite the acknowledged safety risk, Hyundai has not provided any adequate interim solution, such as a replacement vehicle or transportation assistance, leaving me effectively unable to safely use the vehicle. This places me in an unreasonable and unsafe position, as I am left with a vehicle that poses a potential risk to my safety without any available corrective action. I respectfully request that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that Hyundai provides a timely and effective remedy, as well as appropriate support to affected consumers.

On December 15, 2025 I brought my vehicle in to McDonald Hyundai in Highlands Ranch, CO for a recall and was told the seatbelt parts would need to be ordered for Hyundai recall 283. I was told the seatbelt recall parts would take 2 weeks to arrive. January 15 I was notified by the dealership that the parts were in stock and ready to schedule. However, when I attempted to schedule the service, I was told the parts for my vehicle had been given to another customer. I was also told all seatbelt parts are now backordered with “no ETA” and that I must personally call every two weeks to check on the inventory status of recall parts in the service department at McDonald Hyundai. I asked the service advisor (Bo) for the service manager’s contact information on 3 different occasions and he refused to provide the service manager’s contact information every single time.

I am writing to formally report Hyundai’s failure to remedy Safety Recall 25V607 involving defective first and second-row seatbelts in our 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The recall was issued in September 2025 and stated no remedy was yet available but the vehicle remained safe if belts were checked after fastening. In December 2025, the front passenger seatbelt in our vehicle began unlatching while driving at highway speeds, even after confirming proper engagement as instructed by Hyundai. We have repeatedly contacted Hyundai of 110 (Farmingdale, NY) regarding remedy availability. A remedy became available in early December, and we were put on the dealership's list to order parts from Hyundai directly on December 30, but the parts still continue to be on backorder. We have minor children who must now rely on seatbelt-based car seat installation due to weight limits on LATCH. This is our only vehicle and it is virtually unusable at this point because I cannot in good conscience put my child in a car seat secured by a defective seatbelt. Given the documented malfunction of the seatbelt system, we are extremely concerned about the continued safety of this vehicle. Hyundai has not offered: - A loaner vehicle - A repurchase - A timeline for remedy We respectfully request investigation into Hyundai’s delay in remedying this federally mandated safety recall.

This complaint is a follow-up update to my previously filed complaint, NHTSA Complaint No. 11726321, filed on March 23, 2026, regarding two open safety recalls on my 2025 Hyundai Palisade SEL Premium, VIN [XXX] . I am filing this updated complaint to report that a SECOND failed repair attempt has now occurred on the seat belt recall (NHTSA Recall No. 25V607 / Hyundai Recall No. 283). UPDATED STATUS OF SEAT BELT RECALL (25V607): First repair attempt: January 19, 2026 at Liberty Hyundai, Mahwah NJ (Invoice No. [XXX). Technician confirmed open recall. No correction made. Parts specially ordered (RC283-S8500-QQH Seat Belt Buckle Kit). Parts were not available. Second repair attempt: April 2026 at my servicing Hyundai dealer. Technician again confirmed open recall. Seat belt buckle parts remain on order and are still not available. No correction made. Two documented failed repair attempts now on record. UPDATED STATUS OF AIRBAG RECALL (26V034): As of the date of this complaint, Hyundai has still not developed a remedy for the third row airbag FMVSS 226 violation. No repair has been attempted or completed because no fix exists. This recall remains completely unresolved. SUMMARY: I purchased this vehicle on [XXX] from Maxon Hyundai, Union NJ. This is my primary and only family vehicle. I have children who regularly use the third row. After two separate dealer visits spanning more than three months, neither safety recall has been repaired. Hyundai has been unable to provide parts for the seat belt recall and has no remedy developed for the airbag recall. I am formally requesting that NHTSA: 1. Note this updated repair history in connection with Complaint No. 11726321 2. Escalate pressure on Hyundai Motor America to expedite parts availability for Recall 25V607 3. Continue monitoring Hyundai's progress on developing a remedy for Recall 26V034 (FMVSS 226 violation) 4.

UNKNOWN I am making complaint of the 3rd row airbags not passing federal inspection. I have not been in accident, but at this point I am very scared to drive my vehicle. I am trying to work with Hyundai Motor Company Corporate to find another solution, since there is no remedy available and they do not know when it will be available. I was told to not put anyone in the back seat, but I purchased the vehicle for 3 rows because I need 3 rows for my family. I feel that myself, and others, were mislead when purchasing or leasing any 2020-2025 Hyundai Palisade. If we would of have known, we would of never purchased the vehicle.

My 2025 Hyundai Palisade has active safety recalls with no remedy available: Recall 283 (seatbelt – 1st and 2nd row) Recall 292 (third-row ejection mitigation) I have three young children (Ages [XXX] , [XXX] , and a [XXX] ) in car seats and cannot avoid using the affected seating positions, including the third row. I contacted Hyundai Motor America and my dealership and was advised: there is no remedy available, there are no safety protocols or usage guidelines, there is no next step or interim solution. I am concerned because my children are regularly using seating positions impacted by these recalls, and I have not been provided guidance on safe operation in the meantime.

I am the owner of a 2025 Hyundai Palisade SEL Premium, purchased in April 2025, currently at approximately 19,000 miles. I am writing to formally report two open safety recalls on this vehicle for which no remedy is currently available: 1. THIRD-ROW SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG RECALL: Affecting approximately 568,576 Hyundai Palisade vehicles (model years 2020–2025). The third-row side curtain airbags may not deploy correctly during a rollover, failing to prevent passenger ejection. This defect is a documented violation of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 226. As of the date of this complaint, Hyundai has not developed a fix. Owner notification letters are expected in late March 2026. In the interim, owners have been advised to avoid using the third row. 2. SEAT BELT RECALL: A separate seat belt recall is also open on this vehicle. I ordered the parts for this repair months ago and am still waiting. No repair has been completed to date. As a result, I am driving a brand-new vehicle with two unresolved safety defects and no timeline for repair on either. Because I have children who regularly occupy the third row, I am being forced to either expose them to a known safety risk or stop using the vehicle as intended. I am formally requesting that NHTSA: - Investigate the urgency of Hyundai's timeline for developing a remedy - Review whether Hyundai's interim guidance to owners is adequate given the severity of the FMVSS 226 violation - Consider whether a 'do not use third row' advisory should be formally and officially issued to all affected owners I purchased this vehicle in good faith as a family SUV. The inability to safely use the third row renders it unfit for its intended purpose. I urge NHTSA to apply pressure on Hyundai to expedite a remedy.

My 2025 Hyundai Palisade has multiple open safety recalls that have not been repaired and make the vehicle unsafe to operate. The dealership confirmed safety recalls effect my vehicle and my car is currently at the dealership since April 3rd. The first recall 283, involves the seat belts in the 1st and 2nd rows. Parts were ordered on January 20, 2026, but the repair has still not been completed after several months. The second issue is Recall 292 involving the ejection mitigation system and defective 3rd row airbags. This defect can allow rear passengers to be ejected from the vehicle during a crash. I have been informed that there is currently no remedy available for this recall. Hyundai has failed to provide a repair within a reasonable time, and one of the defects has no available fix. I do not feel safe transporting my family in this vehicle due to these unresolved serious safety issues. Hyundai provided me a 2024 Sante Fe loaner vehicle in which is currently under safety recall for seatbelts and has no other loaners available for me. Hyundai USA, case manager [XXX] , case #XXX has denied buy back without explanation. My vehicle is currently not drivable, unsafe, and no remedy available. I want a buy back to be able to purchase a new, safe vehicle for my family. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The current no. 226 EJECTION MITIGATION RECALL has me scared to drive the vehicle for it's intended use as a Family car transporting 7 people which are all children. The fix from the manufacturer/dealership is taking to long. We are lucky we have not been in an accident. I believed my Family was safe in this vehicle but now know we are not. What a waste of money I have borrowed for this car. Paying on something that is not safe and how I risked my grandbabys possibly being ejected from my vehicle if there was to be an accident.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing regarding multiple recalls affecting my 2025 Hyundai Palisade, specifically related to the electrical harness and ongoing safety concerns. Since purchasing the vehicle from a Hyundai dealership in [XXX] , I have experienced repeated issues. Initially, dashboard lights activated randomly while driving, followed by connectivity problems and a malfunctioning trunk. In February, the vehicle required full disassembly to replace the electrical harness, which disrupted a planned family trip. I was provided a Hyundai Elantra loaner, which was not suitable for my family of five, causing a two-week inconvenience. Additionally, the dealership failed to complete a scheduled oil change, requiring me to return. Shortly after, I received another recall notice involving third-row safety concerns during a rollover. Given that a fatality has already been associated with this issue, I am extremely concerned about the safety of this vehicle, especially as I transport my three young children daily. The vehicle’s multiple recalls, safety risks, and extensive repairs have significantly reduced its value and reliability. I am also currently waiting on an airbag cap, but was informed on March 27, 2026, that the part received was incorrect, causing further delays. This has been my first Hyundai purchase, and it has been a frustrating and disappointing experience. The vehicle no longer feels new and appears to be unreliable due to ongoing defects. As of March 28, 2026, I am requesting the option to trade in the vehicle at the original purchase price or receive appropriate compensation. The vehicle has under 10,000 miles, and I am still making payments on a vehicle that does not meet multiple Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, including #226 Ejection Mitigation. I would like to resolve this matter as soon as possible and transition into a safe, reliable vehicle.

Please remove the alert “Consider a break”. This alert is very annoying and distracting. My opinion it does nothing for the safety of the vehicle. At the time I purchased the vehicle I was not advised about the alert. Had I known prior to purchase, I would have passed on the purchase. Please do something to remove or delete the aforementioned alert.

My son and I were driving down the interstate and all of a sudden we heard a loud boom. It felt like something hit the vehicle, but it was more like an explosion. I thought possibly a rock or something hit the back of my car, but that didn’t make any sense. There were no vehicles or bridges around us. I was two minutes from home so I drove home and when I pulled in the driveway, I heard a cracking noise. When I parked, we got out to investigate and determined that the cracking was coming from the moon roof. It was actively cracking. This is exactly what has happened to Palisades in the past with the exploding sunroof/moonroof.

It happened on the way home from Manhattan [from Mount Sinai Hospital], near the ramp to 9W. The road was freshly milled (top layer removed before repaving), and I was going downhill. Traffic ahead was slowing, I had plenty of room, and it wasn’t even a sudden stop — I was just trying to gradually slow down when the car failed to respond properly. This isn’t some one-off. The behavior matches what I’ve seen others report: at low speeds, on rough or uneven surface, the ABS seems to engage when it shouldn’t, and instead of stopping, the car jerks forward. I’ve been able to replicate it a few times now — I more or less can sense when it might happen. To make matters worse, my pregnant wife was in the passenger seat when this happened. She injured her left shoulder during the crash, and the very next day she had to undergo an emergency C-section. Because her lower body was numbed for surgery, the pain in her shoulder made the whole experience much harder for her [btw, Mother and Baby are perfectly fine, thanks god]. This has left me shaken that a family SUV can have such a dangerous defect on the road. There is a lawsuit already, but this needs to be taken very seriously. https://www.classaction.org/news/2023-2025-hyundai-palisade-vehicles-plagued-by-brake-problems-class-action-suit-claims

My car has had numerous issue. The first issue was with the front end collision warning system. I had a sensor warning come on twice saying it may not be in use, but then it falsely predicted a collision resulting in the car slamming on the brakes when nothing was there. I almost go rear-ended as a result. The dealer found that the radar system was completely broken and the sensor was facing to the side instead of the front. I bought the car brand new and there was no evidence of damage and it has never been explained how it got damaged. They replaced the system and that was resolved, but the sensors continue acting strange. It's now turning on the camera and telling me to check my surroundings when I'm stopped at a red light. There is nothing happening around me. The problem that is ongoing and has yet to be resolved is my brakes. It's an intermittent issue, but when I go over rough surfaces and hit the brakes I get a crunching/grinding noise that sounds like it's grinding rocks. This happens intermittently. The dealer was eventually able to replicate it and is saying it's the ABS system and that it's normal, but cannot do anything to repair it. However, it is not normal for ABS to come on going over a bump and it shouldn't sound like that. When this happens, the brakes don't seem to respond properly and as quickly as it should. I have not gotten any warning lights for the brake issue. It does put the parking brake on at times for no reason when I'm on a completely flat surface. The car was out of service for 21 days in a month and a half of owning it. I have a car that I don't feel safe in and I don't trust what it's going to do. It's problem after problem and corporate Hyundai doesn't want to do anything about it.

While driving on the highway using the adaptive cruise control feature in my 2025 Hyundai Palisade, the vehicle suddenly and aggressively braked for no reason — even though there was no vehicle or obstruction ahead. This happened in normal highway traffic and caused vehicles behind me to brake suddenly, putting me at extreme risk of a rear-end collision. It was a very dangerous and terrifying experience that made me unable to use the cruise control feature since. For a brand-new vehicle with advanced safety features, this type of malfunction is completely unacceptable. Hyundai has not provided a proper explanation or resolution. This poses a serious ongoing safety risk to myself and others on the road and must be investigated.

Driving at slow speeds the car’s ABS system kicked in when we transitioned from the road to the parking lot. The parking lot was an even surface and only a slight bump to drive into it. This has happened twice already and the car has 360 miles on the odometer. So comforting! Such great quality !
