| Apr 2025 | STEERING,SERVICE BRAKES | As the vehicle drove over railroad tracks the steering wheel began to shake violently and I attempted to push the brake pedal with my full body weight but the brakes would not work and the car lunged forward, striking the vehicle in front of me. The failure of the brake system on my 2024 Hyundai Palisade prevented me from stopping the vehicle and thus I impacted the vehicle in front of me putting not only my life in jeopardy but also the driver of the car in front of me. I sustained a neck injury and headaches and have required ongoing medical care as a result. This vibrating steering wheel and braking issue has happened in the past several times and was reported to Wiesner Hyundai on several occasions; however, the dealership was not able to recreate the problem. The vehicle has been inspected by the service department at Wiesner Hyundai. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problems prior to the failure. | Crash: Yes Fire: No Injuries: 1 | Unknown |
| Apr 2025 | SEAT BELTS | The driver's side seat belt does not buckle when it is cold outside. It takes several attempts for it to latch. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Sunroof exploded while driving, no evidence of any debris or external force | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | I love my palisade but the only terrifying thing is what happens at low speeds if I apply the brake on uneven surface/pothole it feels as if the brake falls out from under my foot, a loud rattling noise/vibration happens and it becomes nearly impossible to stop. Extremely dangerous I have a [XXX] and another child on the way. I don’t know how this car got top safety pick with this issue. I have read many others having the same issue with their 2024 palisade. I have had a few near misses with accidents because of this happening. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | Went over railroad tracks approaching intersection approximately 40 feet from tracks. Tapped brakes while going over tracks (light was red) and anti-lock brake system kicked in. I was suddenly unable to stop the vehicle as the brakes were not working and I was continuing to lurch forward toward the intersection at approximately 10 mph. The brakes continued to fail for approximately 1 - 1.5 seconds before I let off and slammed down on them as hard as I could and finally slammed to a stop. My car at this point, had gone slightly into the intersection, but not enough to get clipped by a car. Had I not let off the brake and re-hit it with force, I fear I would have continued to roll into the intersection where I would have gotten T-boned by traffic. There were no warning lights or lamps that kicked on when this happened but the steering wheel and brake were vibrating. This is a newer vehicle - less than a year from purchase, but I plan on taking it to the dealership to look at. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | SEAT BELTS | On a brand new vehicle from day one the driver's side seat belt disconnects at random times despite being correctly buckled and fastened. It happens during standard driving conditions even when simply maintaining a steady speed. This is life threatening for my wife. We have taken it to the dealership multiple times, and they refuse to address it because they cannot reproduce it on their short few minute test drives. I have seen multiple posts from people online facing the same issue. For others it is often in the rear seats, but in our case the issue is for the driver themselves (the most often occupied seat). I do not trust that these seatbelts would protect in the case of a collision when they can't even stay buckled at a steady low speed. There are no warnings shown and the car is registering no fault codes. Again, let me emphasize, this car was brand new when these issues occurred. Hyundai refuses to address. This is life threatening. All of the information I give below was for the most recent incident, but this is happening daily since we bought the car. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | AIR BAGS | The contact owned a 2024 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated while driving at approximately 65 MPH, an 18-wheeler crashed while driving approximately 85-90 MPH into the rear end of the vehicle and impacted the vehicle approximately 4 times including the passenger side. As a result, the vehicle ricocheted into a concrete barrier. The contact did not recollect where the vehicle came to a stop. The contact mentioned that the driver of the 18-wheeler stated that he was unaware the contact vehicle was in front. The air bags failed to deploy. No warning lights were illuminated. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the vehicle was totaled. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown. | Crash: Yes Fire: No Towed | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | I was driving on the freeway and my sun roof suddenly just exploded. It was like a bomb went off in my car. My safety was at risk due to the glass. I have reported it to my insurance company to be replaced. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | The passenger side wiper stopped working. Hyundai dealer denied warranty claim. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The windows will come off track if you try to roll them up going highway speeds, it is guaranteed to do it if it is windy. The window will vibrate intensely. It seems like the window will break. The only way to fix it is to stop/slow down to about 20mph before it will roll up correctly. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | Driving on a 4 lane street at approximately 25 mph in the right hand lane next to curb when another vehicle swerved from the left lane into my lane. I slammed on the brakes in an attempt to stop and avoid any contact with the other vehicle. All the brakes did was a hard and long shudder, and did not seem to even slow my car let alone stop the car. Fortunately, the other vehicle attempting to swerve into my lane stopped. My vehicle never stopped and only seemed to slow down slightly. All I could do was to move my vehicle more towards the curb. At the time, I did not feel any impact and assumed no contact or damage. The other driver continued down the road and got onto the highway. When I got to a place to stop, I looked at my vehicle and do have damage to the left rear wheel well trim and back quarter fender area. My car would not stop. It felt as the ABS system was modulating hard. The road was dry, and the temp was in the mid 60's. This is not the first issue like this, and Hyundai says there is no problem and they will not fix it. The last time I took into the shop for this, it was there almost 90 days before Hyundai said come get the vehicle. | Crash: Yes Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | driving in parking lot towards exit to turn onto street. speed approximately 10 - 15 mph. I applied the brakes when approaching the stop sign at the intersection. The brakes shuddered hard and the vehicle did not slow or stop. I let off the brakes and immediately hard pressed the brake peddle to attempt to stop the vehicle before entering the intersection and on coming traffic. The vehicle then stopped with the nose of the vehicle in the intersection. The brakes failed again. This was the 2nd time today I had an issue. The road surface was dry and the temp was in the 60's. There was no impact/contact with any other vehicle, but it was once again very close to having a wreck. The vehicle was at Hyundai for almost 90 days for the same issue late last year and into 2025. Hyundai repeatedly said there was a software update coming, but that never happened and they ultimately said there was no issue, no update, and come get the vehicle. I will be taking the vehicle back to Hyundia today. There are "NO" warning lights, faults, or any other indicator of a failure. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | ABS system kicks in under low speed, light braking situations when going over sudden bumps like train tracks and uneven pavement. This prevents the car from stopping in a normal distance, potentially causing accidents or stopping in the middle of an intersection. A recorded example of this issue can be found at the link below: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | When driving at slow speeds maybe 20-25 mph, I pressed the brake pedal and it vibrated violently and the brakes wouldn’t bite. It felt like it was skidding on ice but the road was completely dry. Very scary. It’s happened several times. This is my second palisade and it happened with my previous one as well. I have zero confidence that the car will stop in an emergency situation. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | SUSPENSION | There is a constant thumping noise while driving my car and rides really rough.I’ve been there 5 times already. I had both shock absorber replaced and it’s still making that thumping noise. I do not want to send it to the dealership that replaced it because my paint or doors would get damaged and last time they broke the back passenger side faring. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | Chest Clip, Buckle, Harness,Insert, Padding | This car seat has been recall. I contacted the company and have not received any response. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | Just Stopped Working Windshield And Rear Wipers | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,BACK OVER PREVENTION | “Check parking collision avoidance system. Ultrasonic sensor error or blockage”. No sensors are dirty or blocked. The dealer cannot look at the vehicle for 2 months. This is the second time this has happened to this vehicle in 13000 miles. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | SEAT BELTS | The base of the seatbelt in the Palisade, does not come out far enough/is too short for use with car seats and booster seats. Apparently, all Palisades have this issue. The seatbelt is nearly impossible for a child in a booster seat to buckle, or an adult for that matter. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Collision warning and car came to an immediate stop while driving | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | STEERING,SERVICE BRAKES | When ever I hit the breaks in a small bump the vehicle vibrates "steering wheel and the brake pedal" not able to control the vehicle almost bump into the car in front of me. I when to my local dealer for it to be inspected and I show the my dashcam videos and one of the mechanics joined me in a test drive for them to diagnose what's happening the same vibration happened when I brake while passing a small bump and the mechanic saw what happened or how it happened and we went back to the dealership they diagnosed the vehicle but they dont have a solution for what have happened i was just afraid that it could happen anytime with my family in the vehicle cause there is no warning when or when it will happen and I cant just simply avoid small bumps in the road cause it's everywhere. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The car exhibited an inability to effectively brake in a very common situation (braking when traveling at low speeds on slightly bumpy ground). I was approaching the end of our driveway and started to apply the brakes as I passed over some slightly bumpy ground asphalt. The car lurched forward repeatedly as the brakes were applied, bouncing forward in spurts rather than stopping and taking twice as long to stop than it should have; I was a couple of feet from entering the roadway despite beginning to break with plenty of time to stop. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | Brake/traction system inoperable and fails to properly engage during normal driving conditions with variations ranging from: minimally uneven, minimally wet or minimally bumpy surface. When applying the brakes in these circumstances, the vehicle shakes violently while continuing to proceed forward. This has happened when braking at all speeds and as low as under 20mph. My family has narrowly escaped injury and death on multiple seperate occasions from running off of the road, to rear ending another vehicle, to sliding up through busy traffic intersections. We feel unsafe to drive/ride in this vehicle as we feel like we are playing Russian Roulette. This issue was previously communicated to the service dept at local Hyundai dealership but they were not able to find/replicate issue. I have videos now for proof. There have been no warning lights or other messages that would identify any issue with the vehicle. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | SERVICE BRAKES | On December 19th at about 5pm, I was pulling into a gas station driving at about 10-15 MPH when my brakes locked up and the car started shaking. It felt like the anti lock braking system was activated and I did not have full braking control of the vehicle. I was driving slow enough that the vehicle did finally come to a complete stop. The gas station was flat and the road appeared in good condition, but is was dark outside and about 40 degrees F. No warnings were observed on the dash or heads up display. No one was hurt in or outside of the vehicle. We have only had the vehicle for a few months (purchased used from Carvana with only 6k miles) and only 70 hours of drive time where the issue has never been observed or reoccurred. Hyundai has not yet been notified but I will file a report with them and ask for an inspection although I’ve read in Hyuandai forums that they are aware of this issue and have no root cause or solution. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Was simply driving at approximately 40 mph and heard a loud bang come from the area above my head. Noticed a wind noise at that point. Upon getting home it was noticed that the glass on the sunroof had shattered on its own. Nothing hit it. It simply just shattered. I've read about people with a similar issue with this vehicle and I'm concerned. Had the visor that covers the inside of the sunroof been open, glass would have hit me and my children passengers. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
