Left home around 520am for work, within 1 mile sunroof exploded. It was approximately 30 degrees outside. I was fortunate because the cover was shut,so no glass hit me. Hyundai has replaced it at no cost. I was told there have been 36 instances and a service bulletin was put out.
2023 Hyundai Palisade complaints
Owner reports filed with NHTSA about this vehicle, newest first and reproduced as filed. They are unverified accounts: one proves nothing, and a pattern across many is the thing worth reading. Back to the full 2023 record →
All vehicle safety sensors going off at once. Speedometer indicated car is going 0mph while car is clearly being driven
We were driving in a snow storm with kids trying to get home and all of a sudden our wipers stopped working and the snow completely covered our windshield. We couldn't see anything and we were in the middle of the road blinded by the snow, not knowing where to go, or stop and how to go get home. My husband had to stop in the middle of the road risking our lives just to clean the windshield. It was covered in snow again almost instantaneously and became impossible for us to get home. This is extremely unsafe that the wipers stop working whenever it snows. This was the worst incident that happened to us but everytime it snows the wipers stop working and we have to clean the bank behind the wipers to get them to work again. There must be a recall for 2023 Palisades as well because they haven't fixed the problem from the recall of the 2019 models and Hyundai must be penalized for ignoring such essential and important safety feature despite knowing it for years...
Windshield cracked
Reverse and 360 degree camera system stopped working at 818 miles, 1-1/2 months. Unable to utilize safety features the camera system provides (e.g., items in rear of vehicle when backing up, items at sides and front of vehicle when going forward.
While driving in snowy conditions my windshield wipers failed to work. They were working and then about 15 minutes in to my drive they stopped working. I had to pull off the side of the interstate with semi trucks flying by to pick the compacted snow out. It did not work and I slowly and very carefully had to continue until I was able to make it home and they were able to thaw.
While driving in "snow mode" and starting from stop and going into turn, vehicle accelerated for few feet and then it stalled, basically the engine was ON but lost torque to wheels. Vehicle would start moving as soon as I change the drive mode to any other than snow mode. This happened few times and all times vehicle was in snow mode. Once even when the payment was dry but driving in snow mode. It has never happened in other drive modes. Luckily there was no incoming or side traffic or I could have ran into by other vehicles. A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. I googled and many others with 2023 have similar experience. Hyundai need to fix it.
Milky rear passenger windows. Causes visual barriers where the sunlight is direct on the glass.
Sunroof exploded while driving.
My car would not accelerate when the gas pedal was pushed. It was in snow mode and we had to switch modes to make it go. My wipers also stopped working when snow and ice collected at the base. We had to remove all of the snow and ice before they would work. It was actively snowing and this was a a real safety issue.
The sunroof randomly exploded while on the interstate driving for 2 mins . There was no other cars or trucks around me driving when this incident occurred. Driving 60 mph. Sounded like a gunshot .
Our 2023 Palisade Caligraphy 2nd row windows have this cloudy distortion on them. My granddaughter can't even sit in the 2nd row because the windows look blurry and make her sick. A lot of people are complaining about this issue. It's definitely a defect in this model and needs to be fixed so I can pay to have my windows tinted
In direct sunlight exposure, the second row windows are cloudy/hazy, which hinders visibility while driving. The effect is noticed for both the driver and passenger side second row windows, but is much more prevalent for the side that is in direct sunlight. There is a significant clarity difference when compared to the third row windows (also tinted, but without the acoustic glass). Looking at various websites and forums, this appears to be a common defect for 2023 Palisades.
Left turn signal will not disengage. Right turn signal and cameras are disabled
The 2nd row windows both passenger and drivers side are hazy. The haze causes a blurry view of what is outside the window. This is issue is a known problem for the 2023 Hyundai Palisade.
Second row windows are extremely hazy and make it difficult to see out of (especially in direct sunlight). Spoke with my dealership regarding this (Southern Team Auto in Roanoke, VA) and was told that they hadn't heard anything from Hyundai on it so there was nothing they could do.
Windshield and rear windows aren't clear. Very Hazy and blurry at nights Wind noise coming from passenger side door/window
WIND NOISE COMING FROM PASSENGER SIDE DOOR/WINDOW WHEN GOING 40+ MPH
The warning light for the front passenger seat is lit up and has been for a while. I don’t use the sun roof so no clue how long it has even on. It reads passenger air bag deactivated. It stays on all the time wvem when my husband or mom sit and seatbelt in that seat
The sunroof of my Hyundai palisade Calligraphy shattered on its own on the very second day of owning it. This seems to be a common issue with sunroof on Hyundai palisade.
Had my vehicle for eight days and my front windshield had a crack with no apparent force as it was parked. As well as second row windows appear to be discolored.
The vehicle is shutting off while in transit. All warning lights come on and the parking break engages. Dealership says no error codes recorded and can’t recreate. Issue captured on video.
Middle-row windows are hazy. Hard to see out of when the sun is out.
A small pin hole in the second row passenger side door arm rest. Also a crack on the window pan trim cover panel on the same door.
The acoustic laminated windows in the second row are hazy, especially in direct sunlight. IT appears to be an issue with the laminate and factory tint together, as my third row- non laminated windows are clear. This causes visibility issues in the back windows/blind spots as there is not a clear view from these windows. Dealer installed tint on the front windows (which are also acoustic laminated) also causes a slight haze, but the effect is much less so because those are only 35% tint. The darker factory tint in the middle row windows is by far the worst as far as haze is concerned.
The contact owns a 2023 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the computer indicated that the vehicle was going the wrong way and to turn around. Additionally, there was a beeping sound coming from the vehicle. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 2,080.
Vehicle wipers are intermittently working in snowy conditions. Behavior is a typical from any other normal vehicle operations. Vehicle restart and wiper auto low and high modes all selected to try to gain normal wiper behavior. This is a dangerous issue when driving in wet and or snowy conditions.
Thousands of specks visible in the windshield when facing the sunlight in early morning or late afternoon. The windshield becomes so blurry. This happens only in early morning when facing the sun or late afternoon.
Vehicle will not start and all dealership can say is it appears to be electrical
Rear passenger windows cloudy. Defect with the tint inside the window glass restricting visibility especially in sunlight.
The passenger rear windows have a very bad hazy look on them when sun hits causing it difficult to see out of the side windows. Possibly defective stock tint on the windows
Windshield broke with no reason, no vehicle in front or around vehicle
Both Side Windows on the Back side of the driver ( between B and C Pillars) Have a Haze color, This is impacting blind spot visibility slightly
Driving home from the dealer on day of purchase, Tire Pressure Monitoring System failure showed intermittently. vehicle had 7 miles at purchase and less than 50 miles before first failure warning.
The second row windows are not clear and are hazy. It is affecting visibility.
Second Row Windows are hazy in direct sunlight making it difficult to see through the windows. The Second Row Windows are double paned with tint in between the two panes of glass. The design of these windows apparently causes the hazy glass appearance in direct sunlight. I reported this issue to Hyundai Customer Care on-line. They responded to take the vehicle to the dealer which I did. The dealer compared the windows to another car on the lot and it had the same defective hazy windows. They confirmed and reported the problem to Hyundai. Hyundai has not responded to the issue. This is an apparent problem for other owners of the Palisade as it has been discussed many times on-line in Palisade Forums.
2023 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy purchased Labor Day weekend 2022. Both 2d row side windows have a haze on them. This causes not only an obscured window but also a hazard when trying to see out of them.
I purchased this vehicle on 9/17 and since day 1 the infotainment system will not turn on when starting the car. It has a digital instrument display and infotainment which control 90% of the vehicle functions. I have opened a case with Hyundai # 20328505 who took 2 weeks t call me and had no resolution other than to let the dealer handle it. I have been to the dealer 3 times now and they can't figure out what the issue is. This is a major safety issue if I can't tell how fast I'm going and or the safety functions don't work.
2nd row windows on both sides are cloudy/ hazy. I have taken it to our dealer and they confirm that the windows are hazy.
2 row windows tint is faulty. It is a white hazy fog between the glass. When sun shines on it sometime you can not see out of. Hazy fog. 3rd row is fine and 1st row also. Many of these palisades have complained to Hyundai. I have filed complaint with no answers yet. Dealership also is calling Hyundai customer service also
The 2 second row windows are extremely hazy while all other windows are clear.
The second row windows in my Palisade are cloudy and hazy to the point that visibility is severely impacted in certain lighting conditions.
Just purchased this car, attempted to clean the 2nd rear windows cause they look very cloudy when the sun hits them making it very difficult to see out of them. Apparently many others have this issues so I brought to the dealership but was told "windows are not covered under warranty". This is a huge safety concern, I cannot clearly view out the back windows under certain conditions and the dealership refuses to replace the windows. I attached a photo but my camera doesn't capture it as good as others have shared so I've shared something close to what I'm seeing as well.
The second row windows behind the driver and passenger seat are hazy. They are not dirty. They haze at times makes the windows very cloudy.
2nd row side windows are hazy making difficult to see through
Second row windows are milky/hazy in sunlight reducing visibility.
The 2nd row and rear windows are foggy/milky looking compared to the front windows.
On September 21, 2022 I had sat in my car for about 8 minutes idling with the key FOB in the car with me. I have as not on remote start. When I left the parking lot and drove a half a mile my engine shut off and a loud beep and red triangle warning came on that read engine failure and to start engine. I pressed the start button and drove about 500 feet and got the same warning and shift off engine. Once again, I pressed the start button and drove about 300 feet to pull out and f traffic. I parked and shut f the car and sat for about 2 minutes. When we started the car and drove I have not had another incident but am too afraid to drive far. I text my salesman at Mike Morgan Hyundai in Shreveport to tell him what happened. I was told to have it towed next time it happens
The second row factory tinted windows have a hazy appearance, limiting visibility in sunny conditions. There is a sharp difference between 2nd and 3rd row factory tinted windows. The 3rd row is clear, the 2nd row has limited visibility when sun shines on it. The haze cannot be cleaned and seems to be part of the laminated windows.
Middle row windows are hazy, especially in the sun. This causes issues seeing clearly under the right conditions, causing safety concerns.
Reading these
NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
