STEERING
when driving along, and trying to turn the steering wheel, the wheel locks up and won't allow it to be turned. It's almost like the steering wheel has been hydraulically blocked. It has happened numerous times over the past 2-3 months. usually, at slower speeds or coming out of a stop light on surface roads.

SEAT BELTS
The seat belt for the driver seat spontaneously unbuckles while the car is in motion. After fastening the buckle, the buckle disengages while driving, with no warning or provocation. This has happened 3 times on the driver seat and once on the 2nd row captain chair. The dealership has offered to inspect and replace all the buckles. The car has 10k miles and is 8 months old.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I bought a new 2024 hyundai palisade. They advertise it being capable of driving the car with digital key app. But it’s a hit or a miss. The other day it unlocked the door with the digital key, but when I tried to start the car, it would keep asking me to have the key. This is an unreliable way and should either be fixed or not used.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
The low beam headlights are a safely issue with the 2024 Palisade. The low beams on mine are downright dangerous. 1. They are dim. They don't illuminate the pavement adequately. 2. The low beam light projection is too short, and the cutoff line is too severe. Coming over a hill or around a curve, the low beams don't illuminate the outside curb nor telephone poles which are located on the outside curbline. I own a late model Subaru Outback and a late model BMW. Both of those cars have terrific LED headlights that give bright light and effective focus. I otherwise like my 2024 Hyundai, but I would not have bought it if I had known about the deficient headlights. My next car likely won't be a Hyundai if my research reveals the problem has not been properly fixed.

SEAT BELTS
Captains seats in the middle of the vehicle keep having the seatbelts unbuckle by themselves when in use. It does not matter the size of the rider. We replaced the entire assembly with original parts for the driver side captain seat in October by a Hyundai dealer. It continues to be an issue. The right side was cleaned and reassembled. This affects the ability for passengers to be safely restrained while the vehicle is in motion and should there be a collision, we are unsure if they buckle would stay latched.

ENGINE
The engine is burning oil. I've had it inspected by Huyndai however they stated it would be 18+ months before getting it fixed. At this point it's burning 1qt oil every 3 weeks. I work from home, and drive my daughter to school a few times a week so not warranting that much oil in 3 weeks. I get oil changes every 4000 miles as recommended. My car will all of the sudden sputter, check engine light will go on, it will lurch forward which is a safety hazard to not only those in the car but those behind me in traffic. It has been inspected and reproduced by an independent service and a Hyundai dealer. Looking at the carfax, this has been an ongoing issue with this vehicle judging by the revious owners vehicle maintenance records.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
The contact owns a 2023 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated while driving at approximately 4 MPH as he was turning onto a main road, the vehicle slid on a patch of ice and slid across the roadway. The contact stated he had crashed into the curb on the opposite side of the road with his front passenger side tire and came to a stop. The contact stated that there was no damage, however, the steering wheel was off-center at 45 degree to the left. The contact stated that he could steer the vehicle in a straight line, but the steering wheel was at a 45-degree angle, as if he was turning to the left. The contact stated that after the crash numerous warning lights were illuminated. The contact drove the vehicle to a local dealer who determined that the front passenger side tie rod was bent and that all of the collision sensors and the ABS module and the steering column sensor needed to be replaced. The contact was advised that the advanced collision sensors could not be reset. The right front passenger tie rod had been replaced. The vehicle had been partially repaired. The contact stated that the dealer could not determine why the sensors could not be reset. The vehicle sensor system had not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 5,800. The VIN was unavailable.

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
Driving on the interstate and sunroof just exploded. Sounded like a shotgun going off. Some glass entered the passenger compartment and went down the back of my sweater. Traffic was light and no other vehicle was close to me. Have only had the vehicle for 11 months and never have opened the sunroof. Dealer was unsure of warranty coverage. I do consider this a safety risk as the sound startled me.

POWER TRAIN
Started my palisade and put the car in reverse. After 1 or 2 seconds, my car went to neutral. Error showed on my cluster “Shifter system malfunction! Service immediately”. I tried multiple times to put my car in park, drive or reverse without luck. After about 2 minutes the cluster said it couldn’t put the car in park and it automatically set the emergency brake. I had to shut the car off with it in neutral. I was able to restart the car and it did go into gear.

SEAT BELTS
The rear captain's chair seat belt on the driver's side of the vehicle does not latch properly. There have been multiple occasions where my kids buckle and then the buckle comes undone while we are driving. I initially thought the kids were not buckling properly, so I investigated myself and still found that the seat belt clicks but doesn't stay latched. It is not 100% of the time, so it can still latch and stay latched, but with it being a seat my kids ride in, anything less than 100% is not acceptable.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Recalls not being done! I am writing to complain about the inadequate and unsatisfactory service I received from the Temecula Hyundai service department on several occasions. The last one crossed the line and is a cause of concern; a huge safety and liability issue. On July 20, 2023 I brought my vehicle in for the driver wiper recall. I was told it was done and it reflected on my profile. After repeated incidents at this location I decided to get my vehicle serviced at a different location. On November 16, 2023, I dropped my vehicle off for the electric oil pump recall where they also suggested to address the windshield wiper. I told them that had been taken care of at the Temecula dealership but they proceeded to show me that while they logged the work in the system, the job was never completed; my palisade still has the old wiper part that was to be replaced. I wonder if this is standard practice at the Temecula shop? That’s extremely concerning as it poses a safety risk if recalls aren’t being properly addressed. I find what happened to be unacceptable and a huge safety and liability concern. I request from you to address this issue the best way possible. I hope that you will be able to find a satisfactory solution very fast.

STEERING, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
The steering wheel on the vehicle would immediately rotate about 10 degrees to the right after starting the vehicle. The steering wheel would then remain in this cocked right position. When driving, the car would pull very hard to the right when letting go of the steering wheel, even following an alignment. This also resulted in the steering wheel being very difficult to turn to the left vs the right. Additionally, this would cause the vehicle to track dangerously close to the right lane lines on the highway when using the lane keep assist feature and forced the driver to consistently pull the steering wheel to the left to track the vehicle straight. I took it to an independent service center for alignment which didn’t correct the issue. I then took it to my local Hyundai dealership for rectification. They recalibrated the steering angle sensor and torque sensor. This corrected the cocked right position of the steering wheel. It improved but did not fully get rid of the right pull and difficulty in turning the steering wheel to the left. I was forced to pay $195 for the steering calibration on a certified pre owned vehicle with just over 10,000 miles on it.

SERVICE BRAKES, SUSPENSION
We bought a Hyundai palisade from them. And as a military family we travel and are placed at different duty stations. When we bought the Hyundai palisade, we also got the bill Navarre warranty, it was our fault for not reading every line about the warranty. The Hyundai palisade is a 2022, sadly the brakes started acting like they were not working. We called them and were told that if we use the warranty anywhere other than at that location, we will lose the warranty and since we had been stationed elsewhere since buying the vehicle, we were stuck on what to do. We had to drive the vehicle risking our lives daily, pump the brakes 5-6 times for it to stop. until we could take it back to that location. We took the vehicle in and just as we thought the brakes were bad due to the master cylinder going out. We were given a small rental that the whole family couldn't fit in, we could have gotten a bigger vehicle if we paid the difference. While we waited on them to get the part in. While waiting we were notified that they crashed the vehicle, we are glad they told us, but the damage is done, and the vehicle will lose some of its value. They gave us a small SUV again so small our whole family can't fit in it. We are so upset with Hyundai and Bill Navarre. We have to sit now and reach out to consumer affairs, Hyundai and the BBB as well as the military because none of this is right. It's not right that people buy a vehicle and when something goes wrong due to the auto makers neglect that we have to suffer for it. Just read everything and be aware because Hyundai and the car dealerships don't care about your safety. Social media will be given notice. We took the car in to them on 11/20/2023 and we are not sure what day they wreck the vehicle, but we found out on 11/27/2023. Who is going to give us the difference of what our vehicle is worth and how do we feel safe getting back into an almost new car that the brakes went out in?

SEAT BELTS
The 2nd row seatbelt located on the left driver side is malfunctioning. The seatbelt will spontaneously come unbuckled while the passenger is buckled up and the vehicle is in motion. The problem has been reproduced more then I count when my children are riding in the car. The seatbelt spontaneously malfunctions and unbuckles. The passenger seatbelt will alarm on the dash until the passenger has engaged the buckle again. The buckle has been like this since I purchased the car. I used to think my son was just fooling around and unbuckled his seatbelt, but he’d swear up and down he didn’t unbuckle and that the seatbelt came unbuckled on its own. I have three children and all of them have had the seatbelt come unbuckled while riding in the 2nd row seat on the drivers side. This occurs at least 1x per week and happens within the first 15 -30 minutes of driving. The seatbelt unbuckling is a safety risk to everyone of my children who sit in that seat. The safety and security of my children are at risk and the dealership where I bought the car has been no help. The dealership disregarded my concerns when I asked how to report my safety concern and said to make sure they push down when they buckle.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
This happened several times: When I drive my 2023 Palisade with Speed Limit Assist engaged, the computer frequently out of the blue detects 25 or 30-mile speed limited signs that are not there and abruptly changes the speed down to 25 or 30 miles per hour. This has nearly caused two accidents as I was driving with 60 miles per hour and the Palisade suddenly slowed down to 30 miles per hour and drivers were only narrowly able to avoid hitting the rear of my car. This is dangerous and needs to be addressed before someone gets hurt or killed. I will report this one NHTSA and Consumer Reports. Please get back with me as soon as possible. I reported this to Hyundai as well. Case number: 22178478
