2022 HYUNDAI PALISADE Complaints

Since I have owned this vehicle in 2022 I have had an issue with my second row seatbelt’s unhitching after they are lached. I brought this to the dealers attention and they told me they are fine as they are we’re not able to duplicate it and if I wanted them to look into it further and they didn’t find an issue I would have to pay out of pocket for their time. No it s so bad that several times throughout our drive they will just unlatch. This is a serious safely concern.

Snowing & my drivers side front wiper stopped working. Palssenger side ok. Had to pull over every couple blocks to manually wipe window clear to see to get home. It has been over a week and still does not work.

I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding multiple ongoing and serious issues with my 2022 Hyundai Palisade. These issues not only diminish the performance and reliability of the vehicle but also raise significant safety and quality concerns. Below are the problems I have encountered: 1.Thermostat and Coolant System Defects: Like many other owners of the 2022 Hyundai Palisade, I have experienced problems with the thermostat and coolant system. My vehicle has exhibited signs of overheating, posing risks to the engine’s longevity and safety. 2.Radiator Leak: I have identified a radiator leak, which is troubling for a relatively new vehicle. This suggests a defect in the materials or assembly, as this should not be occurring under normal operating conditions. 3.Oil Pan and Filter Housing Issues: •The oil pan has developed a crack, which is highly unusual, especially since Hyundai has performed all of my vehicle’s oil changes. This raises concerns about part quality and service handling. •Additionally, I have noticed oil leaking from the oil filter housing. This leak not only raises concerns about engine performance but also indicates a potential flaw in the design or installation of the oil filter system. 4.Faulty Sensors: My vehicle’s sensors frequently activate without any nearby objects or obstacles. These false alerts are a serious distraction while driving and undermine the effectiveness of the car’s safety features. 5.Key Fob Malfunctions: While driving, I have repeatedly encountered the “key not in vehicle” warning, despite the key being present inside the car. This issue is not only an inconvenience but also a potential safety risk if it disrupts the vehicle’s operations unexpectedly. The combination of these defects is unacceptable for a vehicle of this age and reputation. These problems suggest significant flaws in manufacturing, design, or maintenance practices that Hyundai should address immediately.

This has now happened 2 times now (once in the fall of 2024 and the other time was 2 or 3 weeks ago) to the driver side seatbelt. Before driving, I buckled and clicked my seat belt and while I was driving, the seat belt unclicked and unlocked on it's own. The first time this happened, I thought maybe I didn't secure it all the way, but when it happened a second time, I knew for sure I had fully buckled my seat belt and it unlocked on it's own. This is a huge safety concern. If I got into an accident and my seat belt became unlocked, I could be killed. And I am concerned about the other seat belts as well. I have 2 small children who are always in the car with either my husband or myself (or both of us). I am concerned that their seat belts could have the same issue. No warning lights went on and I have not had the seat belt inspected yet. I researched online and saw no recalls, so I wanted to make sure this was reported in case others are having the same issue. It's very concerning. If my vehicle is needed for inspection, I am happy to do so as long as I have another car to drive in the mean time. This is our only vehicle.

The seat belt in the rear right passenger seat became disengaged on 1/13/25 while driving. The alert indicating the belt had become unbuckled did alarm. This has happened repeatedly, including recently on 1/10/25 when the front passenger seat belt became disengaged while driving. This has occurred when both children and adults are occupying the seats.

Rear of car was noisy going over bumps, self leveling shocks were replaced at around 16k miles , then shocks failed again at less than a year at 49k miles and replaced a 2nd time. Seems to be common issue on palisade forums. These shocks should be recalled due to failure rates. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

For the last two months nearly every time the front passenger seat seat belt unbuckles when it is used.

Update to previously filed complaint number: 11608439. Safety issue has been resolved. Initial complaint was due to defective seatbelt receiver buckle. Van Hyundai Carrollton dealership and Hyundai customer service refused to repair the issue under existing warranty, both claiming the issue was not a warrantied item. Months after safety issue was first reported, the vehicle was taken to another dealership, Huffines Hyundai Plano, where the faulty seatbelt buckle was diagnosed and quickly replaced free of charge.

Premature radiator failure that could lead to engine failure while driving. Common problem with Radiator at low milage. Cracks and looses coolant at lower drivers side.

The Power liftgate RH lift cylinder (Passenger Side) snapped out and broke causing issue to open and close.
