Was a stop waiting for a break in traffic to make a right turn. Once there was a break in traffic, I attempted to turn the steering wheel while easing out of the corner but the wheel completely locked up and I was unable to make the turn. Thankfully, there was enough of a break in traffic (across all four lanes) that I could navigate into the parking garage across the street. There I was able to shut off the vehicle and restart it again and regain steering capabilities.

The contact owns a 2022 Hyundai Palisade. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V607000 (Seat Belts); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact stated that the seat belt buckles in the second- and third-row seats failed to latch properly. The dealer was made aware of the failure but confirmed that parts were not yet available.

The driver was pulling onto a driveway and braking to slow to a stop near the entrance of a garage. Suddenly the car surged ahead striking a stone column at the garage entrance severely damaging the column and damaging the front hood, bumper and licence plate area of the car. The air bags did not deploy. This incident occurred at night. At the same time the car surged forward the interior lights and control panel lights went out completely. They came back on after the vehicle hit the garage column. There were two adults and two children in the vehicle. All known recalls (7) at that time had been completed on the vehicle (2022 Hyundai Palisade).

The vehicle experienced severe engine stalling and critically low oil levels that were officially documented by an authorized dealership well before 100,000 miles (at approximately 79,000 miles). Because this pre-existing condition remained unresolved under warranty, the engine ultimately failed and required a complete replacement at approximately 103,000 miles. Just 7,000 miles later, at 110,000 miles, the automatic transmission suffered a critical failure. The transmission severely shudders, spikes to excessively high RPMs, and refuses to shift properly through lower gears (gears 1 to 3). This causes sudden hesitation, loss of motive power, and violent jerking when accelerating and merging into active traffic, creating an imminent crash hazard. The manufacturer has refused repair assistance despite cascading powertrain defects that originated prior to 100,000 miles.

The vehicle has experienced issues for roughly 6 months randomly not starting. The lights and displays come on but it will not respond to push start. We took it in and they replaced the starter assembly about a month ago. The next day it wouldn’t start again. That same weekend died twice and intersections with the auto stop start like the computer was rebooting. It went back into the shop a few weeks ago and they have been unable to isolate the issue. Opened up a case with Hyundai and it’s back at the dealer again tomorrow for them to work with HQ technical teams.

The driver-side windshield wiper arm/attachment system malfunctioned. This is the same component area addressed by Hyundai Safety Recall 243 (NHTSA Recall 23V-180). The dealership documented that the driver-side “wiper arm nut backed off causing wiper arm to come off car.” Photographs also show damage/wear to the internal splined mounting area of the wiper arm. The dealership tightened the retaining hardware and returned the existing wiper arm to service rather than replacing the arm. The vehicle and currently installed wiper arm are available for inspection upon request. I also have photographs documenting the condition before and after the dealership service. The driver-side windshield wiper stopped functioning, leaving the driver without a functioning wiper to maintain visibility through the windshield. Had this occurred during rain, snow, or other reduced-visibility conditions, I could have experienced a sudden loss of adequate forward visibility while driving. I am concerned about recurrence because the dealership documented that the retaining nut had backed off, there is visible damage to the wiper arm's splined mounting area, and the existing arm was returned to service after the retaining hardware was tightened. Yes. The vehicle was taken to the authorized Hyundai dealership that previously performed Recall 243. The dealership confirmed the malfunction and documented on the October 6, 2026 repair order: “DRIVER SIDE WIPER ARM IS NOT MOVING” and “FOUND WIPER ARM NUT BA

The vehicle's steering wheel completely locks up in mid-turn while actively in motion. Berman Hyundai of Lincolnwood performed massive engine and transmission overhauls but twice willfully ignored my warnings about this catastrophic steering defect. The dealership is refusing a safe loaner vehicle. The car is currently grounded at Napleton Hyundai for an emergency independent diagnostic. An active corporate case is open with Hyundai Motor America under Case Management #43278436. All this and I’m not even done paying the vehicle.

The windshield cracked for no apparent reason. It was fine the night before, then cracked the next morning. It seems to originate from the frame area under the passenger side wiper.

Door handle peeling or chipping. The metal is sharp and have warn every person that works on my vehicle. I have spoke to dealership while back they stated that it would not be fixed. On my previous vehicle same thing had happen and the dealership replace even though I was a secondary owner. This vehicle in question I have been primary care owner. Before someone cuts them self with sharp metal or coating that is off on a door handle where you open the door is concerning.

Component Affected: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE: DELIVERY: HIGH PRESSURE PUMP Description of the Safety Hazard: My 2022 Hyundai Palisade has developed a catastrophic failure of the engine-mounted High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP). The insulating foam cover is completely saturated and leaking raw, liquid gasoline directly on top of the engine block. The fuel system is unable to maintain rail pressure, causing severe pre-detonation engine knock ("pinging") and mechanical stumbling during acceleration. Furthermore, there are visible electrical flashes/short-circuit arcs occurring in the engine bay directly adjacent to the high-pressure liquid fuel leak, presenting an imminent vehicle fire hazard. Active dark fluid puddles contaminated with fuel are dripping past the splash shields onto the ground. Dealer/Manufacturer Actions: Despite clear photographic evidence of a pressurized fuel leak on a powertrain-covered component, multiple authorized Hyundai dealerships (Fred Beans, Harrisburg, and Chambersburg) have refused service or grossly misdiagnosed the life-threatening safety issue as a 'gas cap' or 'water hose.' Hyundai Motor America Corporate Consumer Assistance has failed to intervene or provide emergency towing remediation for this severe fire risk.

Was driving down our road and when we came to turn onto the main road the vehicle would not turn. Backed up to avoid traffic then tried proceeding forward again and would not turn or was only turning very little that it did not make a difference. After a few attempts, powered the vehicle off then back on and all of a sudden could turn the wheel again l.

I was driving to work, at a rate of 75 mph (permitted speed limit). As I approached an intersection, I tapped the brakes to turn off the cruise control. It did not turn off. I then pressed the brake pedal and it went further down than normal. The vehicle did not appear to even try and slow down or brake. I tried again, standing on the brakes with both feet. At this point, I knew I would not be stopping, as the pedal continued to feel strange, and not catching for lack of better terms. I did my best to steer around two sign poles directly in my path. Unfortunately due to not being able to control speed, I did hit one. I then continued on for approximately and 1/8 of a mile before my car finally came to a stop in the middle of a dirt field. I do not know if this was a software or mechanical issue with the brakes. I only know they did not work when needed, under normal circumstances.

The sunroof spontaneously broke while driving on the interstate at an estimated speed of 70 mph. There was no severe weather issues or traffic issues. Glass did make it into the car, in both the drivers and passenger seat. Unsure if it made it to the back seat where a [XXX] baby was in a car seat. Called McCarthy Hyundai and they told us to take it somewhere else that it was not under warranty. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Labor Day weekend I was two hours away from home. Before leaving town my automatic collision breaking system decided to go off and start breaking. There was absolutely no one in front of me. The entire weekend about seven or eight times my vehicle put me in extreme danger going at all speeds putting myself in my Assistan danger of dying and flying through the windshield. When I got back to town and made an appointment at North Freeway, Hyundai in Spring they lied and claimed there was front and damage and that the bracket was loose. I have absolutely no front end damage I have included pictures for some reason if they don’t work your system is having issues. Their pictures they took are completely blown out and white and look like it needs an exorcism. I have clear photos of my vehicle there was absolutely no incident or damaged to have any issues with my vehicle . I have been an extreme danger and had to turn it off in order to drive home. I have made several attempts to contact the service manager and he cannot be bothered to contact me it is apparently above him and his Pay grade. I have contacted Hyundai personally and they are working on it on their end but overall it’s up to the dealership

This vehicle has had an open recall for seat belts for over a year. We have had issues with the seat belts and stated that to our local hyundai shop in Farmington, NM multiple times. Even when the car has been in for other things. The only thing they can tell us is that the seatbelts are on backorder and they do not know when they will be in. Then they give us a print out stating the vehicle has an open recall. Like really, we know that you can't seem to fix it. My daughter who should still be in a booster seat is unable to use a booster due to the seat belts coming undone sometimes when buckling them if we use a booster. I feel like with a safety recall like this, if you can't get the seat belts in the cars that are already on the road, mabe the manufacturer does not need to be producing new cars as they too require seat belts. I put in the most recent date we were told the belts were on order in the date occurred.

I was driving the 2022 Palisade at 65 miles an hour on busy interstate when it suddenly shifted down to 5 miles per hour. I was almost back ended and sideswiped as I tried to get from middle lane to side of interstate. I had 3 grandchildren in car at the time.

Vehicle: 2022 Hyundai Palisade, approximately 78,000 miles. The vehicle has experienced a recurring engine/powertrain malfunction involving engine stalling, hesitation/rough operation, startup rattling, cylinder air/fuel imbalance, and misfires. The exact failed component is currently UNKNOWN. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The vehicle has stalled at low speeds, creating a safety concern because the engine can unexpectedly shut off or lose power while the vehicle is being operated in traffic. Unexpected stalling could leave the vehicle without normal acceleration when entering or crossing traffic and creates a risk of a collision involving the occupants or other motorists.The vehicle has been evaluated and serviced by a Hyundai dealership for engine-related concerns. Diagnostic trouble codes associated with these problems have included P000C, P219D, P219F, P21A0, and P0302. Of particular concern, P219D, indicating a Cylinder 2 air/fuel ratio imbalance, has occurred repeatedly, and the vehicle subsequently generated P0302, indicating a Cylinder 2 misfire. This suggests a recurring problem involving the same cylinder, although the underlying cause remains UNKNOWN.Previous repair efforts have included work involving the vehicle's VVT system, but the engine-related problems and diagnostic codes have continued/recurred. The vehicle/component has been inspected by a Hyundai dealership. To my knowledge, it has not been separately inspected by police, insurance

We purchased this used 2022 Hyundai Palisade SLE vehicle on XXX at a Nissan dealership with 95,492 miles. While my spouse was driving the vehicle on the highway on XXX the failed child safety lock alarm notification displayed on the screen and the 2nd row actuators began flicking on and off, like it was exorcist. My [XXX] toddler with special needs rides in the back so we were concerned the doors might pop open if they were not locking properly. We took picture of the alarm display. The next day XXX, before we signed the sales contract , we informed the dealership of the safety hazard. They proceeded to take vehicle back and we hav a loaner vehicle in the meantime. After a week, we were informed that the Hyundai dealership did not find anything wrong with the door locks. When we proceeded to pick up the Palisade on XXX, we were able to recreate the problem right away before even driving the vehicle. All we did was unlock the suv, and when we attempted to open the back doors, the actuators kept clicking on and off on both doors on the 2nd row of the suv. We again told the dealership that it was re-occurring. I emailed and texted pictures and video to the sales representative Carlos Cortez, the finance rep Ruben Mendoza and the service manager Mike Moore. Mike contacted me next day early morning via telephone, they could not recreate the problem and would consult with a Mastertech. I explained that all we did was unlock the suv with the fab and tried opening the 2nd row door ma

On 7/22/26 at about 5:15pm, I was operating my vehicle, a 2022 Hyundai Palisade in the Parking lot of Publix Supermarket at Valrico Commons and was attempting to enter a parking space. I made a right from the parking thruway to enter a right parking space. I felt one of the right wheels graze the pedestrian sidewalk as I was driving about 5 miles per hour, next thing the vehicle lunged forward out of control and though I tried applying the brakes, the brakes would not respond. As a result, my vehicle ending up hitting a parking pole, which resulted in two vehicles parked opposite to me being hit by the pole. There was no one in the parked vehicles.

On April 17, 2026, while driving my 2022 Hyundai Palisade with approximately 167,000 miles, the vehicle suddenly lost engine power and was unable to maintain normal driving speed. The sudden loss of propulsion created a safety risk because the vehicle could no longer operate normally in traffic. I was able to move the vehicle out of traffic, but it would not restart. I also observed white smoke coming from the engine compartment. The vehicle was towed to Matt Bowers Hyundai Slidell, an authorized Hyundai dealership, where it remains and is available for inspection upon request. The dealership has inspected the vehicle and advised that the engine needs to be replaced. The exact internal component that failed and the final cause of the engine failure remain under review by Hyundai. I do not recall any warning lamps or messages before the sudden failure. The timing of any prior symptoms is UNKNOWN. The vehicle had been maintained through authorized Hyundai dealerships. On December 29, 2025, a Hyundai dealership replaced the oil filter housing because of an oil leak and performed a synthetic oil and oil filter change. On March 11, 2026, approximately five weeks before the failure, the dealership performed another oil and oil-filter change and a multipoint inspection. I am reporting this incident because the sudden loss of engine power while driving, the inability to restart, and the smoke from the engine compartment created a serious safety concern. The vehicle remains disabled a

We were driving down the road and heard a loud pop and then heard glass falling onto the sunroof sunshade. My sunroom exploded out of nowhere, nobody in front of me, no trees or structures above us. Just spontaneously shattered.

My car is consuming too much oil. I am going through almost 2 qts per 1,000 miles. Combustion cleaning and consumption test have been completed with no fix to the problem.

I own a 2022 Hyundai Palisade SEL. On XXX, while driving at the intersection of [XXX] and [XXX] in [XXX], the engine abruptly lost power, causing a sudden loss of engine power while the vehicle was in motion. This is my family's primary vehicle, and my wife and children were in the car during this incident. On XXX, I brought the vehicle to Courtesy Hyundai in [XXX]. The dealer found essentially no oil in the engine despite my keeping up with scheduled oil changes. The dealer replaced the oil and performed a software update described on the repair order as "9C9 C ECU SW UPDATE EMISSIONS IMPRV 26-01-010H," and I was instructed to return after 1,000 miles for an oil-level recheck. At that recheck, the dealer's service assistant reported the oil was full. On XXX, before a planned family road trip, I returned the vehicle for another check. The service department found the engine was two quarts low — this was only 4,000 miles after the oil service on April 10, 2026. The dealer stated they requested an oil consumption test but that Hyundai denied the request. Per the dealer's instructions, I returned again after another 1,000 miles, and the engine was one quart low. I am filing this complaint because I believe the excessive oil consumption and the resulting loss of engine power represent a safety defect that has not been remedied. An engine that abruptly loses power while driving creates a serious hazard, including loss of power steering and reduced braking assist, and I am concerne

Several times now, the car's engine will shut off while driving at low speed. When it shuts off, there is a relatively loud electrical noise coming from the engine compartment, and the instrument panel has multiple lights and sounds. There have been times when this issue has nearly caused a major accident.

My Hyundai Palisade is subject to Recall 283 (NHTSA Recall 25V607000) involving the seat belt system. The affected seat belt has exhibited sticking and binding issues. On at least one occasion, the belt became so tangled and stuck that I had to use pliers to free it. Children regularly use this seating position. I have contacted my Hyundai dealership, Circle Hyundai in Shrewsbury N.J., approximately 4-5 times over the past several months seeking recall repairs. Each time I was advised that parts were unavailable and that the dealership was waiting for Hyundai to supply the recall remedy. I also submitted an online service inquiry and did not receive a response. I am concerned that a known safety defect exists, the seat belt is exhibiting operational problems, and no repair has been made available despite repeated requests for service. I am submitting this complaint due to both the seat belt malfunction and the ongoing inability to obtain the recall repair.

Randomly but frequently, my car would turn off when coming to a stop and with the auto shut off - but the full car would turn off and to move, I would need to press the ignition to turn back on and drive. This even occurred while accelerating onto a highway. I took this to the shop and after 6 months of back and forth and paying for fuel injectors they 'repaired' it. Now, my car felt heavy with the auto turn off but the vehicle stayed on. The next day, while trying to accelerate up a hill on a highway, the RPM would rev but the car would not shift and accelerate. Additionally, I am getting 'parking sensor error or blockage' but they lines and sensors are all working.

1) Front collision sign keep coming up. 2) Cruise control does not function. Dealer claims it's wear and tear and maybe due to bumper loose. Claims maybe if someone backed up into our bumper making it loose. 3) Display on the front windshield is distorted, which is also camera related. 4) Paint on fender is peeling and they call that also wear and tear. Picture attached showing paint coming off Overall Hyundai palisade claims nothing is part of warranty. Everything they are claiming as wear and tear. It's not even 5 years since I bought this car and nothing is covered under warranty.

Hyundai has had an active recall involving seat belts for several months. I have attempted to have this repair to no avail. I started with my local dealership and was told the parts to make this repair are not available. I have filed a complaint with Hyundai of America and have a case manager who calls me every few weeks to says that the parts continue to be back ordered. My concern is that Hyundai is not dealing with this recall in good faith. I take my young grandchildren to school every morning and fear for their safety.

My 2022 Hyundai Palisade recently blew the engine due to very little oil (6 quarts). My wife stated that she was driving when it started to act weird. Very shortly after that she heard the vehicle making a loud knocking / banging sound. She stopped the vehicle and turned it off in the nearest parking lot. We had the vehicle towed to our certified mechanic to have it looked at. 6 quarts of oil was put into the engine before it was full. Both him and my wife stated the vehicle never showed a check engine light, low oil light or oil pressure problems. He stated the vehicle had no leaks. He advised us that Hyundai/Kia was having problems burning oil. This is a high risk and safety concerns since there was no warning, happened suddenly and could cause problems for people to find a safe place to pull off the roadway and interstate. So many things can happen if someone didn't hear the noise or have lights indicating a problem, therefor if this happened on the interstate people could struggle getting to the shoulder when engine locks up. Also, a piston or connecting rod can be ejected from an engine risking the safety of pedestrians on foot or driving down the road.

We brought our vehicle to Anaheim Hyundai for a recall-related service update. Before releasing the vehicle back to us, dealership staff advised that we “may experience some issues” after the update and stated that this was considered “normal.” Later that same evening, the vehicle began stalling while driving. The stalling occurred 7–8 times in different driving situations, including while turning through a busy intersection with oncoming traffic. Each incident created a serious safety hazard, especially because all three of our young children were in the vehicle at the time. During each stall event, the vehicle would suddenly shake, the dashboard warning lights would illuminate, the engine would shut off, and we were forced to restart the vehicle in traffic. In addition, the RPM gauge now constantly fluctuates and shakes while driving. We immediately returned the car to the dealership. Initially, we were told there were no diagnostic error codes. Shortly afterward, the dealership informed us there was a code related to the instrument cluster. They worked with Hyundai technical support to replace and recalibrate the instrument cluster. During this process, the dealership also claimed that our battery was contributing to the stalling issue. At that point, we learned that the dealership technician had jump-started the vehicle while performing the recall update during our original visit. Based on the dealership’s recommendation, we replaced the battery. However, the stalling iss

The vehicle exhibits two distinct and dangerous behaviors: 1. Engine stalling upon deceleration: When slowing to a stop, the engine stalls abruptly before the vehicle comes to a complete stop, causing a sudden, unexpected deceleration that throws occupants forward with significant force. 2. Unintended surge upon brake release: When releasing the brake pedal from a complete stop, the vehicle surges forward unexpectedly and with excessive force, causing occupants to be jolted harshly without warning. Both incidents occur without any prior indication to the driver, leaving no opportunity to prevent the danger to occupants or others nearby. SAFETY RISK: Passengers were subjected to sudden, unexpected forward jolting without warning, posing a risk of injury. The vehicle's behavior also creates a hazard for other drivers and pedestrians in the vicinity. DEALER / SERVICE CENTER: The problem has not yet been confirmed by a dealer or service center. INSPECTION BY MANUFACTURER, POLICE, OR INSURANCE: The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives at this time. WARNING LAMPS OR PRIOR SYMPTOMS: No warning lamps, dashboard messages, or prior symptoms appeared before or during these incidents. The failures occur without any advance notice to the driver, leaving no opportunity to take corrective action.

Purchased a vehicle that has experienced ongoing mechanical and safety-related defects, including excessive oil consumption, seat belt malfunctions, and unresolved injector recall issues. Despite multiple repair attempts by the dealership, the problems continue to persist and have not been permanently corrected. These defects substantially affect the vehicle’s safety, reliability, value, and everyday use. The dealership and manufacturer represented the vehicle as reliable and safe; however, the repeated failures and unresolved recalls suggest otherwise. I believe it is misleading to continue selling or servicing vehicles with known defects that cannot be properly repaired. I have also learned that certain model years are no longer sold due to widespread malfunctioning issues that are costly for consumers to repair, yet I was not informed of these concerns at the time of purchase. I have made several attempts to resolve this matter by bringing the vehicle to the dealership for repairs, reporting the recurring issues, and complying with recommended service appointments. Despite these efforts, the defects remain unresolved, causing financial hardship, inconvenience, and concerns for my safety.

Drive Seat Seatbelt unbuckles when driving. This has happened in the past lets say like every few months. In the month of April it happened twice in 1 week and the following week 5/2/26 1 time. This is a huge safety risk. Last time our vehicle went in for an oil change- dealership said there is no fix for this at this time. I filed a complaint with Hyundai XXX 5/3/26 after happened the day before. Because this vehicle’s restraint system may be unsafe to operate, I am requesting that Hyundai provide a loaner or alternate transportation until the defect is properly diagnosed and repaired. If Hyundai is unable to promptly and permanently correct this safety defect, I expect Hyundai to discuss further remedies, including vehicle replacement, repurchase, reimbursement of expenses, or other appropriate compensation. We have not received a call when it stated within one business day. I sent another email requesting assistance without resolution.

The contact owns a 2022 Hyundai Palisade. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: (25V607000 (SEAT BELTS) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available although it states it is on the database. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.

Hyundai's recent emissions software update (9C9) has disabled engine braking, creating a risk of brake fade on grades. The vehicle is no longer able to hold speed while descending grades, regardless of downshifting, forcing the brakes to be implemented to avoid excessive speed. This was never an issue prior to the software update and happened immediately after the software was installed. Instead of holding the vehicle with the engine (foot off the gas, and downshifting) the engine will continue to increase speed up to the point of approaching maximum RPMs. Further evidence of this behavior is that trying to use the engine braking no longer shows maximum MPG on the dash, indicating the software update is still feeding fuel to the engine with the foot off the gas.

Timeline Summary – 2022 Hyundai Palisade Safety Defects I first reported seatbelt buckles coming unlatched during normal use in early 2025. The issue was documented by the dealership on March 28th, 2025. A recall was later issued confirming a defect in the seatbelt buckle assemblies that may prevent proper latching and increase the risk of injury in a crash. From late 2025 through April 2026, I was repeatedly informed by Hyundai and dealership representatives that parts were unavailable, on backorder, and that no repair timeline existed, despite being told parts had been ordered as early as November/December. On April 2, 2026, I was again told there were no parts available and no estimated timeline for repair. After submitting a formal lemon law demand on March 29, 2026 and escalating the matter, Hyundai confirmed in writing that parts were limited and no defined repair timeline existed. Only after over a year of delay was I later informed that a part may be available. Additionally, there is another active safety recall affecting the vehicle for which no repair is currently available. This vehicle has had unresolved safety defects for over a year, involving critical systems, without a reasonable repair timeframe.

The engine has been burning oil since last May and Hyundai has been putting me through the ringer of hoops to get it fixed. After 11 months and almost 30 visits to the dealership, they are finally replacing the engine. The dealership has told me this is a known issue and I know of others who have the same car and are having the same issue. Someone needs to hold them responsible.

- Engine leaking oil / burning oil - vehicle stuttered while turning left - can lead to sudden breakdown or stalling - dealer performed warranty repair of oil pan and oil filter housing in February. 2 months later, no oil on dipstick. Dealer reports this is a common issue. - manufacturer states one quart of oil lost every 1000 miles is acceptable. Car holds 6 quarts of oil. Dealership oil change is once every 6000 miles. Engine will be out of oil before next oil change is due - car is at dealer with no loaner available. Hyundai corporate contacted and they say this is very common and oil consumption test is next step. In the meantime, no car for us. - Vehicle still has 28000 miles under warranty. A simple internet search will show this is an extremely common issue with no fix. - Life of engine, value of car, peace of mind, safety of occupants are all a concern

I am writing to follow up on an ongoing issue with the seat belts in my Hyundai Palisade. I have previously reached out through multiple channels and have been in contact with a representative who has made efforts to assist, which I sincerely appreciate. However, the issue remains unresolved, and I am growing increasingly concerned. This vehicle is our primary family car. My wife relies on it daily to transport our children and my mother-in-law, and the current seat belt issue raises serious safety concerns for all of us. At this point, I do not feel confident that the vehicle provides the level of safety my family depends on. I have inquired about possible solutions, including a potential buyback program or the opportunity to transition into a newer Palisade that does not present these issues. My goal is simply to ensure that my family can travel safely and with peace of mind. I respectfully ask for your assistance in escalating this matter or exploring any available options that would lead to a timely and satisfactory resolution. Your support in addressing this safety concern would mean a great deal to my family and me. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response

This same incident has happened twice, June of 2025 and more recently March of 2026. My vehicle will essentially have no oil left causing my car to shake while breaking and eventually the car stalls out. The first time this occurred, my vehicle stalled out in the highway and again at a 4 way stop sign. I took it to the Hyundai dealership where an oil change, oil plug and oil filter was replaced. In December of 2025, I noticed oil leaking from my vehicle, where the oil house filter was deemed the issue and was replaced. March of 2026, my car started to shake and eventually stall out again and this prompted me to check my oil levels where there was little to no oil. An oil consumption test was performed and it was noted my car is consuming 0.5 quarts of oil per 1,000 miles. Per Hyundai, this does not meet the oil consumption warranty (1 quart per 1,000 miles) and there is nothing to do for this issue at this time. My concerns are that this issue arises prior to my next recommended oil change. Also, there are no warning signs that prompt me that my oil is actually low; no dashboard warnings or notifications. I really only know this problem is occurring when my vehicle physically shows signs while I am driving. I am frustrated with this as I have to refill oil in between oil changes but also pay for the oil changes. Also, it worries me for the safety of my family while we are driving this vehicle.

The vehicle has multiple unresolved safety recalls involving the seatbelt system and the airbag system (ejection mitigation/side curtain airbags). These are critical occupant protection systems that are designed to protect passengers during a crash. There is a risk that seatbelts may not properly restrain occupants and that airbags may not deploy or function correctly. I regularly transport 3–4 children in this vehicle and do not feel it is safe to operate under these conditions. These issues have been confirmed by the manufacturer through official safety recalls. The dealership has acknowledged the recalls; however, at least one recall (airbag/ejection mitigation) currently has no available remedy or timeline for repair. The vehicle has been inspected by an authorized Hyundai dealership, which confirmed the recalls. I have also been in communication with Hyundai Motor America regarding these issues. The seatbelt buckle does not consistently latch properly. When attempting to fasten the seatbelt, it repeatedly clicks without securing, and at times it does not lock at all, creating a risk that the occupant may not be properly restrained. I contacted both the dealership and Hyundai Motor America to request a safe alternative while waiting for repairs. The dealership offered a loaner vehicle that does not accommodate my family size. Hyundai has not approved rental reimbursement or provided a suitable alternative vehicle. As a result, I do not currently have access to a safe and

I’m Filing a complaint regarding Recall 26V034 (Hyundai Recall 292). The manufacturer and dealership are failing to provide the alternative transportation/rental reimbursement guaranteed in the 'Remedy Not Available' dealer notification filed with the NHTSA. My vehicle is currently grounded at the dealership due to safety concerns regarding the Ejection Mitigation Recall, for which no remedy is yet available. Hyundai's own policy (dated Jan 23, 2026) states that dealers will offer rentals to interested customers until a remedy is available. I grounded my palisade because I felt it was unsafe to put my 3 young children in, got a rental with out own money, and am now being denied rental reimbursement. I have also had other recall work done on my vehicle while it has been grounded, and still i’m denied rental reimbursement.

I am reporting a deliberate misrepresentation of vehicle status regarding Recall 292. On April 9, 2026, I brought my vehicle to Bud Clary Auburn Hyundai, for recall services, a safety concern with the 3rd row seat. I was told recall 292 had no remedy. I did not feel comfortable putting my kids back there knowing the airbags are recalled. It was officially grounded due to the side curtain airbag safety defect. The dealership has generated a Repair Order (RO) that falsely claims I departed in the vehicle on that same day. This is a material misrepresentation of fact. The vehicle was not released to me; it remained grounded and in the dealership's physical possession because it was deemed unsafe to drive. Evidence of Falsification: The dealership's claim that I left in the vehicle is physically impossible and contradicts their own actions. I have a written email from the Service Manager acknowledging that a dealership employee personally drove me home on April 9th because the vehicle was grounded. Motivation and Impact: This falsification appears to be a bad-faith attempt to manipulate the "days out of service" count required for eligibility under the Washington State Lemon Law. By documenting a departure that never occurred, the dealer is attempting to "stop the clock" on a safety-related grounding. Reporting inaccurate possession data on a vehicle under a federal safety recall compromises the integrity of the NHTSA’s recall tracking system.
