2020 HYUNDAI PALISADE Complaints

I was driving in a downpour today at approximately 11:30 am at 40mph when the driver side wiper stopped working. This is a verified recall issue which WAS REPAIRED on February 28, 2023. I was able to pull over safely into a parking lot until the weather calmed and then was able to very carefully drive home on side roads.

The seatbelt is flush with the seat and does not allow for a safe and easy fashion to buckle our son in while in his booster seat. We can get it done, but it is extremely difficult and he cannot do it on his own. Upon doing some research, many people are now using seatbelt extenders to help with that issue, which is not allowed/rated for this use. I was considering it until I saw the potential danger involved.

I have a 2020 Palisade Limited and I experienced trying to open my tail gate all three ways: with the key, the button inside vehicle and the auto tailgate release by standing near the rear with the key and all failed to open the tailgate. I had my husband hold the button inside while I forcefully pushed the tailgate from the inside and finally it popped open. Then I had an issue with closing it went part way down and stopped. I had to manually force the tailgate shut. I took it to the dealer and after inspection he said it was covered under warranty for 5 years or 60,000 miles as long as it had not been tampered with. The hydraulic lift on the passenger side had split exposing part of the coil inside. He ordered a new one on 4/13/23 and it will be installed the following week. The dealer said the never had this issue so I told him that I saw plenty of complaints on the internet before going to the dealer. I will say that I absolutely love my Palisade Limited.

The car will start but would not start moving. The adaptive system will turn on by itself and cause the car to stop moving forward.

I am having 2 issues with my 2020 Palisade. First off, for the last 7 months I can feel some sort of slip in my transmission when I am between 40-60 mph. I took in in back in November to the dealership and they claim they didn’t find any issues that I could reschedule and drive it with one of the techs at another appointment. Fast forward, took it to a different dealership this week for a second opinion because it’s still happening and more frequent. They told me they felt it happen once. My car is still under warranty. They suggest a transmission flush, but it wasn’t covered under warranty. My second problem is I’ve been caught in heavy downpour storms. Two times my car check engine light comes on and my car goes in limp mode. Basically puts me stranded because the car won’t run. After a day of letting it sit and dry out, it will run and check engine light goes off. They suggest that moisture is getting into the coil and I need a new coil pack and spark plugs. While at the dealership I ask if between the two suggested repairs will it fix the issue. They told me they can’t guarantee me that it will fix the problem. They want to charge me $1700 for something not guarantee when my car is under warranty. Has anyone had these issues? I contacted Hyundai Corporate and my case is suppose to be escalated.

With about 47,000 miles of use the suspension became rough, mostly in the rear when driving. It is like you are driving with little to no shocks. The smallest bumps in the road you feel it and bounce in the seat. It used to be a very smooth driving car and very enjoyable to drive. This suspension problem is making it less than enjoyable and more difficult to drive. I spend more time looking at the road and avoiding things that could a rough drive. I have had vehicles in the past that had auto leveling systems and air shocks which has caused similar driving, so it may be a design problem. With this low mileage it should not be a ware issue.

The engine seems to be consuming oil and diminishing the oil levels before the required oil change period. This causes the vehicle to make loud noises, cause erratic error codes/issues, including stall while driving. This seems to be a common problem across Hyundai Palisades from 2020 model year when I looked up in Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride forums. I'm surprised there is no recall despite such a wide spread issue with this model.
