| Jul 2025 | ENGINE | Unknown. I was exiting the freeway onto off ramp, was slowing down to break for a line of cars at a red light and the car shut off and stopped before i came to a complete stop on my own. All lights on dashboard lit up. The dash said the engine is off and to push the P (park) and restart engine. I had to do this quickly twice before car actually started, as traffic started to move. Luckily, a collision in the front and back was avoided but this was extremely unsafe and unexpected. Now I’m scared to drive this car. After car started, the engine and oil lights came on then went off within a few seconds. Appointment scheduled for dealership diagnostic testing. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | POWER TRAIN,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | 1) Transmission sticks and doesn't shift at higher speeds, had dealer look at could not replicate. I have had many instances of this happening. Safety issue is this usually happens when accelerating to get on freeway or passing someone and then I need to back off gas pedal to get it to change gears 2) Anti collision warning goes on for no reason - has not engaged brakes. Safety issue is both times I hit the brakes thinking i was going to hit something but there was nothing in front of me.- will talk with dealer service manager this week 3) Anti lock brakes engaged at a normal stop - this could have caused an accident. I was able to stop car going into intersection by slamming breaks on - this has happened twice. Huge safety issue as I was entering a intersection and had trouble stopping the car. will talk with dealer service manager this week | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that while driving at 5 MPH from making a right turn and attempting to stop the vehicle for a traffic light, with the brake pedal depressed all the way to the floorboard, and the vehicle failed to stop. As a result, the vehicle crashed into the rear of the vehicle in front before coming to a complete stop. The air bags did not deploy. No warning lights were illuminated. A police report was not filed, and no injuries were reported. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was unknown. | Crash: Yes Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The car randomly throws "consider taking a coffee break" warning, which distracts from driving and can cause an accident. The feature should be removed or the driver should have an option to disable it | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | At mid to low speeds when pressing the brakes, I can feel excessive shaking and vibration when going over uneven roads. I’m located in Queens, New York so you can imagine the roads aren’t the smoothest. However not speaking of pot holes or anything like that just any uneven surface bump. It causes the brakes to feel like ABS kicking on but no abs lights or anything just the feeling. I only feel it on low to mid speeds probably because faster speeds usually indicate highway driving and it’s usually pretty smooth when going those speeds. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | When applying normal braking at 20 mph, the car began to shutter and slid approximately 20 feet past where it should have stopped. It felt like the ABS was engaging. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | SUSPENSION,WHEELS,SERVICE BRAKES | My 25 Pallisade front end/front wheels shake violently when braking and hitting a bump at the same time. It shakes so hard my steering wheel shakes also. It can happen when braking hard, soft, small bump, big bump, it doesn’t seem to matter. It is brand new and I took it into the dealership when there was about 1500 miles on it. They didn’t find anything wrong. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | I was traveling in a parking lot, no more than 3mph and went to stop at the stop sign and my brakes locked up and I couldn't come to a complete stop for several feet. The car skid a few times before being able to fully stop. This was extremely scary, especially having a child in the car with me. Not only that, due to the car not stopping with only using my right foot, I went to also use my left foot to apply more pressure to the brake pedal, I ripped off a large portion of my toenail on my big, left toe. After doing a quick Google search, one of the first things that pops up is a class action lawsuit for this exact reason, that was established on May 9th of this year for 2023-2025 models. I have contacted the dealership and the manufacturer. This is an extremely concerning issue. | Crash: No Fire: No Injuries: 1 | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | On bumpy road, while at low speeds, the steering shakes violently and the brake does not engage. I have to keep hitting the brake multiple times for the car to stop. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,SERVICE BRAKES | Brand new car came with warped rotors and rattling noise unresolved. Major safety issue due to brake failure. A few times braking due to red light, upon braking the car would stutter stop and at times not start stopping until brake pedal fully stepped on, had a few near accidents. At a McDonalds and Wendy’s drive through, foot on brakes but car would still move forward even though was at a complete stop(car moved forward from a complete stop even though foot is still stepping on brake pedal). Have heard rattling on right side of car when braking, unknown cause, mentioned it but dealership completely ignored it due to cannot replicate(happens once in a while), was not documented on invoice, planning to bring into dealership and demanding a full panel diagnostic. Major safety concern because I have children and what if brakes fail at a busy intersection. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | When driving at a low rate of speed to stop, when you hit a bump or uneven road, the brakes lock up, the vehicle will lurch, and will not stop. This has happened several times on pavement, gravel roads, and dirt roads. I have had to steer off the road to keep from going into oncoming traffic. It has also caused me to go through stop signs. I am terrified to drive this vehicle in fear of being in an accident | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | There have been several instances--at least a dozen--where I will apply the brakes over a bump, pothole, or steep driveway and the car will skid. It's exactly how it feels when ABS activates when a car brakes on an icy road. The brake will disengage then re-engage, delaying the overall stop time. The skid feeling when the brake releases is unnerving and, again, delays the stopping time. Luckily I have not been close enough to the car in front of me and no collisions have occurred. It has happened often enough that I can often anticipate when it will occur (like over a bump), and I allow myself more time to brake. However, one can't predict when you need an emergency stop and it's scary to think my car could possibly not stop in time. I will issue a complaint to the dealer, as well. This issue has not been inspected by anyone yet but I plan to have our dealer look at it. No warning lights on the dash have come on during any of the times the skidding has occurred. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,SERVICE BRAKES | Overly sensitive and dangerous abs system when in gravel or uneven surfaces the abs will trigger and basically u lose all stopping power and your steering wheel vibrates I've almost hit something head on and ran through an intersection because of this | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | ABS kicked in at a stop sign going 15 mph. Car jerked forward into an intersection and did not stop quickly. This problem has occurred since this incident. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2025 | BACK OVER PREVENTION,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | When exiting a paking lot, the Vechile did not Warn/Detect or di not Stop, while there was a 2 feet rock in the front of the bumper, whcih is 2 feet by 2 feet. The big rock hit exactly between the 2 sesonrs and no waring or didnt stop the vechile from colliding which damged the whole front bumper. I had my 2 kids and wife in the vechile, the only concern, I have is my wife drives the vechile all time, if it did not detect/warn/stop before hitting a big rock, what is the garentee it will save us from any major accidents. I took to the delar ship, havent got an appoitment for 2 weeks just to look at the sensors and they say to call Hundai Coustomr service and after 2 weeks of taking to Hundai customer service they are asking me to deal with the delaer ship. and they are pointing to each other while I get no response. and all they say is there is No way to pull the sensor information prior to tha accident. | Crash: Yes Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I have a 2025 Hyundai Palisade with ABS issue that has occurred at least 3 times since first occurrence at 1700 miles while on an incline turning right rode on rumble strip at about 15 to 20mph. The abs activated no abs light on dash, ride became extremely bumping and car will not stop at the light before the stop light. The was not able to steer left or right. This situation occurred two more times at decline and incline while turning at light. The car felt extremely unsafe when this event occurred. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| May 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I was driving on a road that was very rough with many bumps and the car (well in front of me) began to slow down to avoid a big pot hole, I applied my brakes to slow down before I got close to that car. Because the road was rough, as many others have filed the same complaint now, my Palisade engaged the ABS and the car coasted much farther than it shoudl have with the amount of brake pressure I was applying to stop before I collided with the vehicle slowing in front of me. The ABS prevented me from stopping before I almost hit the car who at that point had stopped in front of me, the forward collision warning came on and the emergency braking applied violently which almost caused a wreck behind me as well becuase the person behind me was not prepared to me to come to a complete abrupt halt. The palisade stopped itself after the ABS wouldn't let me stop soon enough to avoid a collision in front of me - almost causing a wreck behind me. With a simple google search, this ABS engaging on rough roads is a major common problem that Hyundai needs to address before we're all paying for wrecks that we didn't cause due to driver neglience but rather the functionality of the vehicle is causing the safety problem. I immediately called my dealership and have an appt for them to look at it early next week. I'm frightened this will cause me or my wife and kids to be in a wreck that could have been prevented. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Apr 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | I have had issues with the brakes on my brand new 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The first incident was in a parking lot. I was driving up to the exit of the parking lot, driving very slow. When I pushed on the brakes, the brake pedal shook, the car lurched forward and did not stop as it should. From what I have read online, this seems like an ABS system failure. Similar things have also happened on bumpy street coming up to a stop sign driving at slow speeds. Luckily, I have been able to stop before going into an intersection. This is very scary when it happens and especially when my family is in the car. I am driving slow but if I am unable to stop and go into an intersection, I will cause an accident. I took the car to the dealership this morning. They inspected it and were unable to recreate it. They said they cannot do anything until the issue can be replicated. We bought this car because of its safety rating but driving around with brakes that are not reliable is definitely a safety issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2025 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | While driving at approximately 20 mph on rough asphalted road (city road under construction) I applied the brakes in a normal fashion only to be met with violent shaking of the car and an unresponsive brake pedal. After pumping the brakes several times I was able to bring the car to an abrupt halt, narrowly avoiding an accident, i.e., I was inches away from smashing the car in front of me. The violent shaking felt similar to when an ABS is engaged, though more pronounced. I have an appointment with the dealer next week but am documenting the event given the numerous reports I found online and the multiple reports of the dealers doing nothing to remedy the safety issue. The vehicle has not—as of yet—been expected by the dealer. No warning lamps or messages appeared during the incident. This happened once before under similar circumstances approximately two weeks ago but I wrote it off as a "one off." | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | As seen on many complaints online, the ABS system is failing when coming to a stop on dry roads. If you hit the slightest bump it will lung forward and you are unable to stop the car for 15-20 feet. This has happened numerous times almost causing an accident with my family. My fiancé was driving the kids to school and she hit the brakes at a stop light and she was unable to stop until she was in the intersection. Luckily, the cars coming were able to avoid her. She is petrified to drive this car. Hyundai has a case open and since they can't replicate it at the dealership, they send me my car back. It has been at the dealership twice for this issue and it has happened again. There are no options for me at this point other than to drive an unsafe car. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2025 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed at night, the driver's side headlamp failed to adequately illuminate the roadway. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who agreed that the headlamp provided little illumination but informed the contact that the headlight was functioning as intended. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 10. | Crash: No Fire: No | 10 |
| Apr 2025 | STEERING,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,SERVICE BRAKES | I was driving not even 5 miles per hour because I was coming to a turn I was making there was bumps in the road I ran over and lost control of the car no steering at all I couldn't stop it felt like I had a blow out and then I stomped on the brake hard and it stopped before it hit the curb with no codes or anything to tell Me what happened | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
