STEERING, LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
THE CAR WAS KEEPING THE CAR CENTERED IN LANE. THERE WAS A VERY SLIGHT CURVE TO THE LANE. THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND QUICKLY. WHEN THE CAR WAS VIOLATING THE OPPOSITE EDGE OF THE LANE IT OVER CORRECTED TO GET CENTERED. THEN IT VIOLATED THE OTHER EDGE AND OVER CORRECTED EVEN MORE. THE CAR WAS OSCILLATING OUT OF LANE ON BOTH SIDES BEFORE I COULD REGAIN CONTROL.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
I WAS TRAVELLING AT 50MPH UNDER CRUISE CONTROL WITH LANE FOLLOWING AND LANE KEEPING. A CAR DROVE PAST ME IN THE LANE TO MY LEFT AT ABOUT 65MPH. THE COMPUTER QUICKLY TURNED MY WHEELS AND SENT ME INTO THE LANE AT MY RIGHT. IT WAS A TURNING LANE AND UNOCCUPIED. THE ANGLE OF THE CAR TO THE TURNING LANE WAS STEEP. I REGAINED CONTROL OF THE CAR BEFORE IT COULD GO OFF THE HIGHWAY TO THE LEFT.

THE DESIGN OF THE SHIFTING MECHANISM IS BACKWARDS SO THAT DRIVERS MEANING TO PUT THE VEHICLE INTO DRIVE (AND GO FORWARD) WILL EASILY CONFUSE THE BUTTONS AND PUT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE (SENDING THE VEHICLE BACKWARDS). THINKING ABOUT A SHIFT KNOB ON A STANDARD VEHICLE, ONE THINKS OF THE KNOB IN "REVERSE" AS BEING BACK TOWARDS THE REAR WINDSHIELD. SAME WITH A MOTORIZED WHEELCHAIR: TO GO FORWARD YOU SELECT THE POSITION IN THE FRONT, AND TO GO BACK, YOU SELECT THE POSITION IN THE BACK. THE CONFUSION HAPPENED TO ME OFTEN ENOUGH THAT I ALWAYS LOOK AT THE BUTTONS CAREFULLY BEFORE GOING FORWARD TO MAKE SURE"D" HAS LIT UP. MY HUSBAND, WHO USUALLY DRIVES ANOTHER CAR, DROVE THIS VEHICLE AND PRESSED "" BY ACCIDENT TWICE AND THE CAR OBVIOUSLY WENT BACKWARDS WHEN HE MEANT TO GO FORWARDS. EVERYONE I ASK HAS AGREED WITH US THAT THE NATURAL (AND THEREFORE MOST SAFE) ORIENTATION WOULD BE TO HAVE THE MOST FORWARD BUTTON BE DRIVE, AND THE BOTTOM TOWARDS THE BACK BE REVERSE. ALTHOUGH WE AVOIDED CRASHES, I THINK THIS DESIGN CREATES THE REAL POSSIBILITY OF MANY ACCIDENTS.

TOXIC GASEOUS CONTAMINANTS,. DEALER UNDER THE DIRECT GUIDANCE OF THE HYUNDAI CORPORATE TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT. DEALER AND HYUNDAI CORPORATION HAS MADE NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THE GASEOUS TOXIC SMELL FROM THIS VEHICLE AND SOLUTIONS ARE NOT CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. I MUST SAY I AM DISAPPOINTED HYUNDAI CORPORATION AND STIVERS HYUNDAI OWNER AND REPRESENTATIVES FAILED TO INFORM US OF THE ONGOING GASEOUS ODOR DILEMMA OF THE PALISADE LIMITED PURCHASED /DEL DAT 11AUG2020 'SICK HOUSE SYNDROME', NAUSEA, OR FATIGUE FROM EXPOSURE TO VOCS. SOME VOCS MAY EVEN CAUSE CANCER WITH A HIGH EXPOSURE CONCENTRATION. AFTER THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN CLOSED UP FOR OVER 24HOURS WE OPENED THE PALISADE AND RECEIVED A GASEOUS CHEMICAL ODOR EMANATING FROM ALL FOUR DOORS AND THE REAR HATCH WHICH WAS BOTH DEBILITATING AND FRIGHTENING. MY WIFE IMMEDIATELY HAD AN ASTHMATIC ATTACK AND CAUSED A HEADACHE WITH BOTH EVENTS REQUIRING MEDICATION . I PERSONALLY WAS CHOKED BY THE ODOR AND ALMOST VOMITED . I IMMEDIATELY OPEN ALL DOORS AND STUPIDLY TRIED TO LOCATE WHICH AREA OF THE VEHICLE THE TERRIBLE ODOR CAME FROM . IT WAS TOO STRONG AN ODOR TO DETECT ANY ONE AREA AND IT PERMEATED FROM ALL THE DOORS AND REAR HATCH. "WHAT I DID ACHIEVE WAS ENOUGH OF THE GASEOUS CHEMICAL COMPOUND IN MY MOUTH'S MUCOUS MEMBRANE AND MY AIRWAY THAT MY TASTE AND BREATH HAD THE RESIDUAL ODOR FOR OVER FOUR HOURS. THIS WAS A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE THAT WE CANNOT WITHSTAND AGAIN. MY WIFE CERTAINLY CANNOT WITHSTAND LIFE THREATENING ASTHMATIC ATTACKS CAUSED BY OUR BRAND NEW HYUNDAI VEHICLE, THE PALISADE I HAVE IS UNSAFE BECAUSE HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA CANNOT DISCLOSE TO ME WHAT CONTAMINANTS ARE CAUSING THIS TOXIC ODOR. WHAT IS IT AND WHAT LEVEL OF WHATEVER IT IS WOULD BE POISONOUS ? TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 20-BD-018H IS NON SCIENTIFIC AND NON ENGINEERED COVER UP OF HAZARDOUS HEALTH ISSUE TO ALL CONSUMERS.

I HAD JUST LEFT THE DEALERSHIP WITH 28 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WHEN A SMALL PEBBLE HIT THE WINDSHIELD AND CAUSED A ONE AND ONE HALF INCH CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD. I WAS TRAVELING AT 45 MPH. THE WINDSHIELD HAS TO BE DEFECTIVE OR TOO THIN TO INCUR THIS DAMAGE. I WAS NOT FOLLOWING ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT COULD HAVE PROJECTED THE PEBBLE. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE WINDSHIELD AT IT'S EXPENSE. THIS IS NOT A CHEAP VEHICLE. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS CURRENTLY A LAWSUIT AGAINST THE MANUFACTURER TO REPLACE OTHER OWNERS WINDSHIELDS.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
TOOK A ROAD TRIP ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO GLACIER NATIONAL PARK IN MY 2021 PALISADE THAT I PURCHASED BRAND NEW JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO. DECIDED TO SAVE A LITTLE MONEY ON FLYING BY DRIVING INSTEAD, BUT NOW I'M REGRETTING THAT DECISION. A SMALL ROCK FLEW OFF A TRUCK THAT WAS PASSING ME ON THE LEFT ON I-90 AND HIT MY WINDSHIELD. ABSOLUTELY NOT MY FAULT AND NOTHING I COULD HAVE DONE TO PREVENT IT. THERE WAS A SPIDER CRACK. BY THE TIME I STOPPED AT THE NEXT EXIT TO GET GAS AND EXAMINE THE DAMAGE FURTHER, IT HAD ALREADY GROWN TO A RUNNER CRACK. IT WAS SATURDAY IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE SO SAFELITE WAS NOT AN OPTION. I CONTINUED ON TO MY DESTINATION IN KALISPELL AND BY THE TIME I GOT THERE IT HAD GROWN TO THE POINT THAT "PATCHING" WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE. NOW ONLY A WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENT WOULD SUFFICE. I CALLED AROUND ON MONDAY AND GOT THE CHEAPEST QUOTE FROM SAFELITE. AFTER TAX IT WAS GOING TO BE APPROXIMATELY $713 FOR THIRD PARTY GLASS. THE OEM WINDSHIELD, WHICH THEY RECOMMENDED, WAS $1400. I OBVIOUSLY OPTED FOR THE THIRD PARTY OPTION. I ASKED ABOUT THE CAMERA CALIBRATION FEE. THEY SAID THEY COULD DO IT FOR $300. I CALLED A DEALER WHO SAID THEY COULD DO IT FOR $250. SO I'M GOING TO HAVE THE WINDSHIELD REPLACED BY SAFELITE AND HAVE THE CAMERA CALIBRATION DONE BY A LOCAL DEALER. ALL TOLD IT'S GOING TO BE ABOUT $963. I'VE ALWAYS LOVED ROAD TRIPS BUT SEEING HOW RIDICULOUS FRAGILE THE PALISADE WINDSHIELD IS MAKES ME MORE APT TO KEEP IT GARAGED AND JUST FLY NEXT TIME. REALLY DISAPPOINTING.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 55-60 MPH. A SMALL STONE KICKED UP AND CRACKED THE WINDSHIELD IMMEDIATELY. THIS RESULTED IN A SPIDERWEB THAT AS OF NOW HAS STRETCHED APPROXIMATELY 12 INCHES ACROSS. THE SOUND WAS STRANGELY LOUD. I'M NOW RESPONSIBLE FOR A FULL REPLACEMENT FOR A BACK ORDERED WINDSHIELD OVER AN SOMETHING THAT AT MOST SHOULD HAVE A CAUSED A CHIP IF ANYTHING. I CAN HEAR THE CRACK SPREADING AND AM CONCERNED FOR THE OVERALL INTEGRITY OF THE GLASS.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
WINDSHIELD CRACKED 2 DAY OF OWNERSHIP. THE SMALLEST SMALL PEBBLE IVE EVER SEEN FROM ROAD HIT WINDSHIELD. I'VE OWN MANY OF CARS AND DRIVE ALL OVER THE USA AND HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN TO A BRAND NEW CAR. IT HIT DRIVES SIDE WINDSHIELD. GLASS IS CHEAPLY MADE . ITS NOT SAFE FOR FAMILY.
