2023 HYUNDAI PALISADE Complaints

This incident occured on 4-2-2024, while driving to the doctor with my newborn daughter. Our 2023 Hyundai Palisade Limited did not respond/accelerate/move when pressing on the gas pedal. The engine/transmission seemed to malfunction when trying to pull off from a green traffic light. There was loss of power and the palisade would not move. This vehicle was purchased brand new and it is a serious safety concern that the vehicle can malfunction when attempting to accelerate.

Took vehicle in for routine maintenance and first I was told my engine is misfiring. They replaced injector and then told me my engine is blown. Engine is on back order for 3+ months

Seat belt buckle of second row bucket seat on driver’s side is malfunctioning. Buckle clips in as expected, and then disengages on its own without user touching it. Seat belt unclicked with a passenger sitting in it, when driver applied brakes coming to a stop. There are no warning lights or error codes. The safety of anyone sitting in that seat is entirely compromised and we cannot use this seat until the buckle is replaced. We consider this a total failure of the safety device and needs to be investigated within other vehicles immediately. We are getting the belt buckle replaced at local Hyundai dealership.

Suv turned itself off in traffic. I had it towed to dealership and they told me that they couldn't fund anything wrong. The suv could not accelerate in traffic three weeks ago. Had to turn on side road from traffic. Suv has been at dealership for three weeks no progress.

Unable to pull the seat belt in the middle seat, and no seat belt at all pn thired row.

Palisade's Windshield cracked without any incidents, SUV was parked in the garage and today morning 03/21/2024 it had a 15-20 inch crack on the bottom of the windshield.

I received a recall almost a year ago. Immediately contacted a Hyundai dealership who kept me on hold for an hour and said they couldn’t fix it or don’t know when someone would be able to. They got my number down and were supposed to call me and never did. I then took my car to the Hyundai dealership in Killeen to get the recall fixed and they said they didn’t have the part and couldn’t help me at this time. No one from either dealership has still contacted me!!

When traveling at a modest rate of speed, if I apply the brakes going over any slightly uneven terrain the ABS triggers randomly and makes braking really difficult. It takes longer to stop and much harder pressure. I have reported this issue to the dealer but per usual they "cannot duplicate ", however it happens very often and my dash cam has caught it.

The TPMS does not alert at the required safety standard of 25% or the recommended PSI. The recommended PSI for the 2023 Palisade is 35. 25% drop would be 26.25. Even driving on 26PSI can be potentially deadly depending on how worn your tires are. I have found my tires at 27-28 PSI at least 3 times since purchasing the vehicle with no alert. The dealership tested what PSI sets off the TPMS warning light to make sure it does trigger a warning, and it was 25 PSI. They said they tested a few other palisades they had on lot currently and all were triggered at 25 PSI. This is unacceptable! Driving a heavier SUV, they should be required to trigger a warning at 5 PSI dip to avoid excessive low-pressure tire wear and dangerous driving conditions. These are family vehicles carrying children.

Since brand new the TPMS has not alerted to low tire pressure. 3 times I have caught the tires at 27.5PSI without a warning light. Between that and a suspension problem that causes the car to pull to the right even after 2 all-wheel alignments, my tires have around 6-8/32 tread left after 11,000 miles and 1.5 years.
