STRUCTURE:BODY, SEATS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE YESTERDAY. TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE TWO DAYS EARLIER AND NOTICED VERY STRONG INTERIOR ODOR, SUCH A CARPET CLEANER OR DISINFECTANT, WHICH WE ASSUMED WAS FROM DEALERSHIP TRYING TO CLEAN, BUT OTHER CARS WE TEST DROVE DID NOT HAVE THIS SMELL. BOTH MY US AND AND I CAME HOME THAT AFTERNOON WITH A STRONG HEADACHE THAT LASTED ALL NIGHT. WE ASSUMED IT WAS FROM STRESS AND CAR SHOPPING'S. WE STILL DECIDED TO PURCHASE THE CAR, ASSUMING IT WAS STILL JUST A DISINFECTANT AND WOULD GO AWAY. BROUGHT HOME, OPENED ALL DOORS AND WINDOWS AND BACK HATCH TO AIR OUT. SPRAYED WITH NATURAL AIR FRESHENER ALL OVER CARPETS AND FLOORS. AFTER ONE NIGHT OF SITTING CLOSED INSIDE THE GARAGE, OPENED UP THE DOORS TO FIND THE SMELL IS GETTING STRONGER AND MORE INTENSE. OPENED THE WINDOWS TO LET AIR OUT AND SPRAYED CARPETS AGAIN. TODAY, AN ARTICLE WAS RELEASED THAT THOUSANDS OF OTHER HYUNDAI PALISADE OWNERS ARE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE, AND IS TIED TO THE HIGHER END MODELS AND NAPPA LEATHER SEAT, WHICH WE HAVE. WE NOW HAVE LEARNED THAT HYUNDAI HAS BEEN MADE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND ARE NOT RESPONDING. WE ARE SAD TO FIND OUT THAT OUR 1 DAY OLD CAR (TO US) HAS SUCH A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM THAT WE WERE NOT AWARE OF AND CANNOT STAND. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE MATERIALS AND PRODUCTS USED TO BUILD THIS HIGH END VEHICLE AND IT'S AFFECTS ON OUR HEALTH. I AM VERY SENSITIVE TO SMELL AMD HAVE COMPLAINED OF THIS AWFUL SCENT SINCE WE FIRST SAT IN THE CAR. NOW THAT WE KNOW THIS MAY NOT BE SOMETHING THAT WILL JUST AIR OUT AND MAY BE AN INHERENT PROBLEM DIRECTLY FROM HYUNDAI, WE WANT ACTION. THIS MAY BE THE REAL REASON WHY THE PREVIOUS OWNER TURNED IT IN. IT IS AWFUL AND I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE SITTING MYSELF OR MY FAMILY IN OUR NEWLY PURCHASED VEHICLE. WE FEEL HYUNDAI SHOULD REPLACE OR REPAIR THIS PROBLEM WITH A RECALL!

SEAT BELTS, SEATS
THE MIDDLE ROW BUCKET SEATBELTS ARE INSTALLED TOO LOW INTO THE RECESS OF THE SEAT MAKING BUCKING EXTREMELY HARD, AND AT TIMES, PREVENTING THE SEATBELT FROM CLICKING INTO PLACE AT ALL.

SEAT BELTS
THE SEATBELT BUCKLES FOR THE CAPTAINS CHAIRS ARE RECESSED INTO THE BODY OF THE SEAT. THIS MAKES IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FOR BOTH ADULTS AND CHILDREN TO BUCKLE UP. THE BUCKLES ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO USE WITH BOOSTER CHAIRS WHITEOUT SOME AFTER MARKET MODIFICATION (NOT SAFE).*DT Consumer stated buckles are recessed into the seat bottom and latch is angled inwards towards the seat making it even trickier to get to. The angles isn't helping with latching. Silicone and foam building block is used to hold buckle in place.

WAS DRIVE ON THE EXPRESSWAY AT 55MPH AND SOMETHING STRUCK THE WINDSHIELD. A SMALL CHIP WAS ON THE GLASS. I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEY SENT SAFELITE GLASS TO REPAIR THE CHIP. AFTER TRYING TO REPAIR THE CHIP A LARGE CRACK DEVELOPED AND NOW THE WINDSHIELD HAS TO BE REPLACED. THE WINDSHIELD IS NOT SAFE IN MY OPINION. A SMALL CHIP SHOULD NOT CAUSE THE WINDSHIELD TO BE REPLACED.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
VEHICLE EXACTLY 1 YEAR OLD WITH FULL WARRANTY, WAS DRIVING DOWN ROAD WITH NO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME AND SUNROOF EXPLODED. IT SOUNDED LIKE A SHOT GUN WENT OFF INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND GLASS PIECES CAME DOWN ALL OVER ME AND MY WIFE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH PREVIOUS HYUNDA SANTA FE AND TUSCON MODELS AND THE DEALER CLAIMS A ROCK PECK CAUSED THIS AND THAT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. ITS BEEN A TERRIBLE BATTLE WITH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE ASKING ME TO FILE A COMPREHENSIVE CLAIM WITH INSURANCE COMPANY HOWEVER I DONT FEEL I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE SIMPLY BECAUSE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO SO MANY PEOPLE, EVEN PEOPLE WHO OWN THE NEW 2020 PALISADE. ITS MORE COMMON ON DUAL SUNROOFS BUT WE HAVE THE SINGLE SUNROOM AND I PROMISE, IT WAS A VERY SCARY SITUATION THAT WE DONT WANT TO EXPERIENCE EVER AGAIN. WE HAVE BEEN PROUD HYUNDAI OWNERS OVER THE PAST 8 YEARS AND IF THEY ELECT NOT TO HELP US WITH THIS ISSUE OF REPAIRS, UNFORTUNATELY WE WILL TRADE THE VEHICLE AND NEVER PURCHASE HYUNDAI AGAIN.

I HAVE A 2020 PALISADE AND I LIVE IN MAINE. TODAY WAS THE THIRD SEPARATE EPISODE THAT MY WIPERS COMPLETELY DISABLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I SPENT QUITE A WHILE PRIOR TO DRIVING CLEANING OUT THE AREA NEAR THE WIPERS, AND HAD TO STOP THREE TIMES ON MY HOUR LONG COMMUTE TO WORK TO CLEAR MORE ICE/SNOW FROM THE AREA WHERE THE WIPERS REST. THE FIRST TWO TIMES I WAS UNSUCCESSFUL AND IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE. THE WIPERS WERE WORKING WHEN I LEFT MY HOUSE AND BECAME DISABLED AS I WAS DRIVING. THE WEATHER WAS A MIX OF SLEET, RAIN AND SNOW BUT WITH MINIMAL BUILDUP THAT WOULD'VE CAUSED THE WIPERS TO BE DISABLED. I HAD NO WARNING OR VISIBILITY AND AN ACCIDENT COULD HAVE EASILY OCCURRED. I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING A SMALL PEBBLE STRUCK MY WINDSHIELD AND IMMEDIATELY CRACKED IT. THIS WAS NOT A ROCK, BOULDER OR ANYTHING OF SIZE, IT WAS A PEBBLE. I HAVE SEEN THAT OTHER 2020 PALISADE OWNERS HAVE ALSO HAD THEIR WINDSHIELD CRACK UNDER THESE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES. ITS UNREAL THAT HYUNDAI IS ALLOWED TO SELL CARS WITH INSUFFICIENT WINDSHIELDS WITH THIN GLASS. THIS CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN YOUR UNABLE TO SEE OUT OF YOUR CRACKED WINDSHIELD AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.
