SUSPENSION
Rear struts are leaking hydraulic oil and a knocking noise is noticeable when going over bumps or pulling out the driveway. This is not normal wear on a car that only has 29800 miles. This is not the result of aggressive driving as we only have it for family use and don’t haul absolutely anything. This is bad design and if not fixed, you could start seeing uneven wear on the tires and probably a blowout. There has so be a recall to replace blown struts and not just components like shock absorbers or anything similar. The whole strut needs no be replaced to avoid uneven wear and knocking sounds and car bounce when going through bumps.

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD
The contact owns a 2021 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated while driving 30-40 MPH, he heard a noise coming from the windshield. The following day, there was a scratch on the passenger's side lower corner of the windshield, which later became a spider web crack. The windshield was replaced at an auto collision repair shop. The contact stated while driving 30-40 MPH on another occasion, a truck passed the vehicle, and a tiny rock struck the passenger's side lower corner of the windshield, causing a crack on the windshield. The contact stated that the crack later expanded, and the vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the windshield was replaced; however, the failure recurred while driving. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that it was a known failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 11,000.

I’m having trouble with getting insurance protection on my 2021 Hyundai Palisade. It appears that the SUV is easy to seal. State Farm and Travelers insurance company will not write a policy on a Hyundai vehicle.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
My wife and I were driving on I-81 south of Front Royal, Virginia on 10 October 2023 when our sunroof shattered. Temperatures were mild at the time and we were traveling at normal highway speeds. Nothing impacted the vehicle and there was no warning before the sunroof broke. This is the second time this has happened in this vehicle, the first time having been repaired under warranty by a local dealer. This time we were fortunate to have the sunshade closed so no glass got in the vehicle and we were not injured unlike last time. My wife held the sunshade closed and we managed to pull over safely. We found a car wash and vacuumed as much of the glass as we could and jury rigged a cover out of cardboard and duct tape so we could proceed on our trip. We are now contacting an attorney.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Child window lock button problems. At times when the child window lock button is depressed the car cycles through the locking sound. Happens repeatedly and the only way to turn it off is to turn off the child window lock safety feature.

LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The blind spot view monitor (which displays the blind spot view from the side camera in the cluster when operating the turn signal control) malfunctioned. I rely on this safety feature when changing lanes as an extra precaution, and having the blind spot view suddenly not display when its settings are turned on poses a safety risk. This problem persisted for roughly 24 hours on the date stated. I parked the car, turned it off and on several times, toggled the setting for it on and off but that did not resolve the issue. The vehicle did not have any warning indicting the blind spot view was not functioning properly and there were no other issues present. Oddly, the next evening, after being parked overnight, the blind spot view monitor was back to its proper display. Luckily, I captured a video of the issue which also shows that settings for the blind spot view monitor were on but that it would not display properly. Unfortunately, the dealer was unable to reproduce the problem, but they only drove it for a total of 12 miles in their possession. I'm uncertain what inspection or trouble-shooting they did. I'm reporting this issue since other Palisade owners have also experienced a similar intermittent problem with their blind spot view monitors. They also said it abruptly just starting working again, similar to what I experienced.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Hyundai has failed to remedy recall 235 within a reasonable amount of time, and is misreporting the stats of completed repairs related to this recall. They state that owner notification letters and dealer instructions were mailed May 2023 and that "dealers will install a new fuse and wire extension kit, as necessary, free of charge." Yet, the dealerships I've contacted do not have the replacement parts and have not been able to repair my vehicle despite many inquiries. I have inquired with Hyundai USA about this permanent recall remedy and they have been unable to assist. They refer me back to the dealership, and the dealership refers me back to Hyundai USA with no remedy in site. The quarterly report stats are misleading, as my car and others have had this recall marked as "completed" when in fact only the inspection and interim fix to remove the 40A fuse was completed, not the permanent fix they claimed to have ready in May 2023. All the interim fix did was disable the power supplied to the tow hitch, so brakes and turn signals will not function on trailers, which is a road hazard. This is not a repair, it renders your tow hitch inoperable in a safe manner. While Hyundai USA reported to NHTSA back in May 2023 that they had a permanent fix including a replacement 15A fuse and new wire harness parts available, it is just not accurate. It is over a year since they publicly announced the tow hitch harness recall 235 and more than 5 months since they announced the permanent repair, yet any dealership I contacted was unable to perform the repair and said they were not supplied with the recall replacement parts. No alternative recall remedies have been given either. This recall needs to be remedied in actuality, not just on a piece of paper. So many owners like myself have exhausted means of contacting Hyundai, yet are still left with an unrepaired recall. It is unsafe and deplorable that they are publicly releasing inaccurate recall data in their favor.

While driving, the engine suddenly turned off on its own showing a safety alert on dashboard "Engine is off. Shift to P or N." I had to pull the vehicle over with coasting for safety, stop the vehicle, and start the engine again.

ENGINE
The car suddenly stalls during driving. It has been root-caused to engine oil consumption. I used my car for only 3K miles after my previous service (normal recommended oil change is 7.5K miles) before I saw the same stall issues and all kind of weird check lights going off. I had to top off my car with an additional 3.5 quarts of oil to be able to drive again.

ENGINE
When starting the vehicle, the engine will not fully start, it will turn over as if it’s out of gas. Canceling the start process, then retrying usually results in a running engine. As of October 5’th, my vehicle is not currently you on the fuel pump recall, but this issues seems like a fuel pump issue.

Hyundai has 2023 and 2024 palisades recalled under 23V526. I have yet to be notified and am unable to get this recall fixed. My car is being destroyed by the sun because I refuse to park it in the garage. This car has been in the shop more than out and I'm sick of it.

My locks start making a clicking noise randomly, sometime when vehicle is off some times when it is going down the road. It makes a series of clicks, sounds like doors are locking and unlocking, then I get a warning that pops up on dash that says child safety lock failure. When I took it to the dealership they could not get any failure codes when they hooked up computer.

THE LIFTGATE STRUTS CAN COME APART AT ANYTIME. WE HAD THE RIGHT SIDE COME APART LAST YEAR. HYUNDAI REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. TODAY THE LEFT ONE HAS FAILED. THE STRUTS HAVE POWERFUL SPRINGS INSIDE AND I THINK SOMEONE COULD GET HURT.

SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN
So there I was, stopped at a red light, waiting for traffic to clear and about to turn right. Traffic clears. I step on the gas. Nothing. I look at my dash and there are no signs of life. No warning lights, no bells or dings. The vehicle is just dead. I’m pushing the start button, pushing gears, tried to turn on my hazard lights. Nothing. As expected, the symphony of horns from vehicles behind me started. So I pull the lever from inside to pop the hood, open my door, and exit the vehicle. I get the hood up and first thing I go for is the battery. I reach for the battery cable and it’s loose. Twist it a bit and viola! Car starts up! But then I realize the car is rolling backwards! Ahh! So I run and jump into the moving car and put my foot on the brake and stop it. There were two saving graces here: 1. The road I was stopped on was mostly flat. 2. When I exited the vehicle I left the door open. Nobody was hurt. The vehicle didn’t hit anything. But had there been in incline on the road, I may not have been able to catch up with the vehicle and stop it. And had I closed the door, it probably would have been locked when it restarted and I would not have been able to get in. IF THE BATTERY IS DEAD (or in my case, a battery cable comes loose) THERE IS NO WAY TO CHANGE GEARS! Should this happen again while I’m alone in the vehicle, I’d have to wait, a prisoner in my car, until some good citizen came along and ask them to open the hood and jiggle the battery cable. Not as dangerous, but should the vehicle be parked in a single garage and then the battery go dead (for whatever reason) one wouldn’t be able to put the vehicle in neutral and push it out of the garage to get it jumped off from another vehicle. HOW DO YOU PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK with a total loss of electrical?
