when driving it gives warning Forward collision assistance system disabled. radar Blocked. warning stays for 3 to 5 minutes and goes away. But during that time when car is in cruise it is disabling the cruise mode. I took it dealer and said they need to change the Camera module unit behind the Rear view mirror and replaced it. But after coming out of dealer and driving for few miles again warning popped up and stayed for few mins. I took it back to dealer and this time they said AVN head unit need to be replaced. I informed this to Hyundai as well and they created case with case number: 20602610. This started happening in July 2022 and i was coordinating with dealer to fix this. still the issue is being worked on.

This issue was first noticed on December 13th, 2021, and has been an ongoing frustration. I am constantly getting this error: "Parking Sensor Error or Blockage." Please take a look at the attached picture as a reference. On February 8th, 2022, I brought my Hyundai Palisade to the dealer's service department for them to find out what may be wrong. Their technician notes: "Scan all modules for codes with GDS. No DTC in any module. Drove vehicle testing all front and rear sensors, and all are working as designed." Please see attached PDF of the service department's official printout. But I have had the same repeating issue since, most recently, last week. Something must be wrong with these technicians. Last year I had the front passenger window whistling sound issue, and technicians s

While being inspected at the dealership, multiple fuel injectors (#1 and #3) were found to be leaking. This presents a severe fire hazard as fuel is escaping onto engine components. The dealership confirmed the leak and suggested replacing all six injectors due to potential systemic failure, but the manufacturer (Hyundai) is refusing 100% coverage. I have been without a vehicle for over a week, and this is a critical safety defect that could lead to an engine fire or stalling while driving.

The instrument cluster seems to fail more so in the hotter weather. The speedometer, RPMs and gas gauge just stop working altogether. This seems extremely similar to the issues of other Hyundai vehicles that were recalled. The blind spot monitoring turns on and off as it pleases and there is a message that comes up sometimes that say it has been turned off due to electrical failure. The HDMI port in the counsel does not work but half the time so using android auto fails constantly. The radio signal is very poor in the car, resulting in static and high pitched noises on the stations and cannot use regular stations. There also is a huge oil consumption and oil burn smell and leak. This also seems very common for other Hyundai vehicles that have been recalled. Having to put 4-5 quarts

We purchased our 2020 Hyundai palisade limited six weeks ago. Currently has 3000 miles. The blind spot collision warning system (bscw) has a malfunction and stops working after driving a few miles on both highway and city/country roads. There are no cars or trees/obstacles around the car when it deactivates. Restarting the car resets the bscw system, but it malfunctions again in a few miles. When the system is deactivated, we cannot turn off blind spot active assist--it gives a controller error. We tried shutting off the bscw system indicator in the heads-up display. That does not fix the problem

Multiple seatbelts in the vehicle seem to be latched properly, then while driving, they become unlatched. This occurs often, but is made worse in colder weather.

Discovered from passenger complaint that the two seat belt tensioners involved with the middle seat captain seats are defective. They will lock on their own without any deceleration or passenger intervention and not release unless the seat belt is unlocked & fully retracted. I have personally tested this and found both middle seat retractors to exhibit this failure even with the car standing still and powered off. A web searched revealed that Hyundai seat belts are under investigation by the NHTA at this time.

While driving during snowfall, snow accumulated over wiper area and blocks wipers from moving. We had to pull over on highway in middle of snowstorm and clear the wiper area. Extremely dangerous for myself and family. The wipers turn off if there's even a little amount of resistance, and the hood design allows for build up accumulation of snow where the wipers go.

'check blind spot collison warning system' error message appears every trip after 10-15 minutes. My palisade also steers toward the center lane and does not stay in the middle of the lane as intended. I feel very unsafe being so close to oncoming traffic, and it causes arm fatigue to keep steering away from the center. Finally, there is a great deal of wind noise coming through the driver's side window/door as I drive at medium to high speeds.

Self-leveling shocks are bad just over 70,000, when the vehicle is out of warranty. Contacted Hyundai with no assistance. Did my own research and found that it seems to be a known issue with Hyundai Palisades. [XXX] [XXX] Seems ridiculous that a part so expensive without the option for aftermarket parts would be going bad so easily. My safety has not been jeopardized YET; however, worn or broken shock absorbers can lead to reduced braking efficiency, which could be a serious safety risk in the event of an emergency braking situation. In addition, worn or broken shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to skid on wet roads Repairs are ongoing with an independent service provider.
