Any time I brake on bumpy roads or rail road tracks, my brakes start bouncing and i'm not able to completely brake until i've passed the bumps. There's bumpy roads all over and this is very unsafe and concerning every time it happens. The abs system needs to be looked at.
2024 Hyundai Palisade brakes complaints
Page 3 of 9: complaints 41 to 70 of 223, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The brakes appear to be skidding when coming to a stop at low speeds, even on pavement. Has occurred once on gravel and other times on patched asphalt. Two major incidents have occurred where vehicle would not stop and slid past stop sign and started to go into highway traffic. Driver has to stomp on the brake to get the car to stop. This has occurred intermittently at least 8 times since vehicle was purchased in Feb 2025. We have had it inspected at the Hyundai dealership 9/5/25 but no problems could be found with the brake system. It is scheduled to go back again after another skidding incident 9/15/25.
Driving and while stopping at a red light on an uneven road almost crashed into the car in front of me due to brakes not stopping, abs was activated and I could not stop car made a grinding sounds and my steering wheel shook and sho did the car.
While driving and slowing down at a stop light the car started to trigger the anti lock brakes. The car was shaking and it would not stop. I put the car in park right before hitting the car in front of me. It was a sunny day with no poor road conditions. The road was a little bumpy but not anything extreme.
I was coming down a hill slowing down and when I hit a dip in the pavement the abs engaged and the car was shuttering and would not stop. It has happened a few times now on uneven surfaces like potholes or bumps in the road.
when going over roughts that are considered rough the abs braking system does not engage and I have multiple times of almost hitting the vehicle in front of me cause the abs are multiapplying but not stopping in a normal time, instead the distance is longer...this only happens on rough roads currently and not off roading but actual concrete/asphalt service/highway roads
When applying the brakes on uneven surfaces, the vehicle lunges forward, shutters and shakes and is uncontrollable, the brakes fail to work And increases stopping distance. this is extremely dangerous and needs to be fixed. This has happened multiple times.
I've been dealing with an ongoing issue with my ABS kicking in when slowing down and driving over a bumpy surface since I purchased my car. I first reported this issue to Hyundai dealership and Hyundai Corporate Customer Care in July 2024.(As well as the federal safety agency) At that time I had experienced this issue around 5 times. Since then, up to the present, I experience this issue on a regular basis and have brought my car into the local Hyundai dealership 4 times over the past year to fix. Each time I got the car back...it still was not fixed. I even had a technician from the dealership ride with me so I could show them...and he verified there is a safety issue. The dealership communicated with the Hyundai tech line and they were instructed to replace the ESC module in the ABS system. I picked up my car today, and the issue is still there. I went back to the dealer and even showed them a video of it happening today and the dealership said there is nothing they can do. Hyundai claims there is nothing wrong even though I have several videos and even had a local mechanic from the Hyundai dealership ride with me to experience this safety issue. I have called Hyundai Corporate again to escalate this safety concern. There is clearly a big problem and Hyundai needs to fix it before there is a serious accident or injury. Maybe pressure from your administration could help. I am willing to speak with anyone needing more information or copies of some of the videos I have taken.
Date: [XXX] Time: 12:00 PM Location: [XXX] (heading toward [XXX] ). - Turned left into the second entrance to the parking lot between [XXX] and [XXX]. My Vehicle: 2024 Hyundai Palisade Night Edition Incident Summary While entering the parking lot, the vehicle in front of me braked. When I attempted to brake (approx. 10 mph), my vehicle: - Began pulsing/jerking, consistent with ABS engaging. No matter how hard I pressed the brake my car would not stop it's kept pulsing - alerts and Beeping with a forward collision warning went off - car Lurched/jumped forward rather than stopping smoothly. This resulted in a minor rear-end contact with the vehicle ahead. Concerns for safety of myself and others because the car did not stop when hitting the brakes nor the collision warning initiate braking. CONCERNS - Concern that ABS or forward-collision system malfunctioned. - Service appointment scheduled for 9/9/2025 at 9:45 AM with Hyundai dealership. - Will keep a copy of the service summary for documentation. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The ABS system in my 2024 Hyundai Palisade Limited engaged abnormally while making a slow turn. I was going about <10mph when my Palisade started to shake violently and I could not brake nor control the vehicle. I had two other passengers and if I was unable to gain control I would have jumped a curb and possibly rolled over since I was in a turn. I have not reported this nor spoken to a dealership. I am not sure how this will help since this has been reported multiple times by other Palisade owners and dealerships and Hyundai refuse to do anything about it. There were no warning lights or messages displayed. The vehicle also has the latest software update applied.
When going over roads with small bumps that are spread a few feet apart, pressing the brakes unexpectedly engages the ABS. This causes the braking distance to increase drastically and also requires the brake pedal to be pressed with excessive pressure to even stop. This happens consistently and has nearly caused us to rear end the vehicle in front of us.
The palisade seems to have issues when breaking over potholes or bumpy streets. I think you could say they lock up and do not stop as they should. In addition the car actually shutters. This happens more than once in a daily basis because of the area I live in. I’ve brought it back to the dealer twice and because they drive on smooth roads, they do not duplicate this issue, which means they’re likely avoiding the issue because I can tell them where it happens all around my town. It’s extremely unsafe.
When going over small bumps on road and applying breaks, ABS system kicked in and would not stop car. I had to swerve away from car in front of me from stop hitting it. While doing some investigation on this 2024 Hyundai Palisades it seems that is a common problem.
[XXX]. While approaching a red light traffic signal ABS kicked in with a slight acceleration and reduced braking. There was a car ahead of me stopped at the red light. Applying normal pressure to the brakes was not slowing my vehicle requiring me to use both feet to force enough pressure to the brakes to stop within feet of hitting the vehicle in front of me. This was on a main public road and the road was rough. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
At low rate of speeds coming to a stop the ABS braking system will activate on uneven surfaces, loose gravel or rough terrain. When this happens you have no control when the car will stop. We've almost went into the back of another vehicle or went out into an intersection. This has happened multiple times and we've been made aware there is a class action lawsuit about this issue
I have taken my car into Hyundai three times time. When I am driving, coming up to a stop at a light, sign or because of a hazard, there are times my brakes lock up completely and I cannot stop my car. Each time I've taken my car, I've been told "we cannot replicate the problem we are unable to fix it" It happens at least 5-10 times a week. I've almost crashed at least 7 times and I have to move over to try and move out of the way, slam down my brakes in hopes that something clicks and I can stop. I know that I will crash one day but my equity is negative on my car and there isn't anything I can do. I have young children in my car and I could be a risk to anyone else on the road and I'm extremely disappointed in how Hyundai is handling this.
Grocery store parking lot, approaching stop sign and anpther car was in front of me. There is a dip or something and I was braking to stop behind the person when my brakes started shuttering and the car wouldn't stop. It jerked forward and then right when I was about top hit the car it stop suddenly.
Issue has happened 2 times, when slowing down to a complete stop. the car began to shake violently at (approximately 5-10mph) and the car would keep creeping forward , until I kept pressing on the brakes really hard and finally it would stop creeping forward and stop . It almost caused me to hit the vehicle in front of me both times
Breaking failure on low speeds for up to a few seconds many times
I bought my 2024 Hyundai Palisade new in May of 2024 because of the safety features and impeccable safety ratings. Since purchasing this vehicle, I’ve had multiple instances of the brakes not engaging when I’m driving on uneven terrain, the most recent event was today while my young daughter was in the car. I live in a fairly rural area and frequently drive over railroad tracks as part of my daily commute. I’ve been driving for 20 years and NEVER had a car that had a braking issue. I’ve almost rear ended multiple people because of this. When crossing the railroad tracks, if all four wheels are not on flat ground the brakes will not engage. The car lurches forward and it will take double or triple the distance to stop the vehicle. It doesn’t do it every time, and has done it going as slow as 12 mph. There is currently a class action lawsuit filed in NY and OH that states Hyundai was aware of this issue during production and failed to tell anyone. I paid over 60k for this vehicle and Hyundai of Gainesville Ga is refusing to help me stating they don’t know of anyone having this issue and cannot replicate it. I’m going to end up rear ending someone because no one will hold Hyundai accountable. Please please help me. I have a little one to keep safe!
I have a 2024 Palisade, and any small bump, pothole, or lane bump causes my steering wheel to shake uncontrollably. If I go over a speed bump or come down an incline, the brakes make a rumbling sound, and if I try to brake, the brakes stutter and just shake. I’ve almost hit a car in front of me a few times because it didn’t want to stop. This is a very expensive SUV to be having these issues, and it’s a major safety concern.
When going on uneven terrain then trying to brake the ABS kicks in and makes the brakes unusable. I’ve almost hit the car ahead of me several times now. I have taken the car to the dealership and they cannot duplicate the problem.
While approaching a stop sign we hit a small crack in the roadway while applying the brakes. The brake pedal started pulsing and the vehicle would not stop. Luckily there were no cars approaching because we rolled thru the stop sign. This is the second time in a month this has happened. Apparently the manufacturer is aware of the issue but have not seen any type of recall.
Sometimes when trying to break on uneven surfaces the break seems to fail, shaking the car as if trying to break multiple times, which results in the car continue moving sometimes 10 feet over the stop sign, for example. The uneven does not need to be gravel, just minor bumps on the road sometimes trigger this issue, which makes me scared that I'll end up in an accident, as I already had a near miss one. This has happened now multiple times and is making me scared to drive. I took the car to Huyndai on 08/15 and they were able to reproduce the same issue, saying that it seems to be a misreading from the ABS system, but added that the car and its systems are functioning as per the designed specifications and there was nothing they could do. Their solution was to advise me to use more caution when breaking, avoiding sudden breaks and to allow for increased breaking distances, but this absolutely does not resolve the issue and places the responsibility to resolve the issue on the customer, which is absurd. I should add that the many times this issue happened to me, I was driving at very slow speeds (max was like 20 mph) and was slowly stopping at the stops signs of my gym center and the parking lot of my work, which leads to a busy highway. I am afraid one day I won't be able to stop the car and end up going into the highway and cause an accident hurting both myself and other people. This is incredibly irresponsible of Hyundai, it's playing with people's safety. I would have not bought this car had I known this was an issue.
Shook violently while pushing brakes and finally caught and stopped after pushing them hard.
When going over an uneven surface (railroad track/cobblestone/pothole) at a low speed, specifically while braking, the car starts violently shaking and prevents me from stopping the car. It has caused my car to go an extra 15-20 ft and even had to narrowly miss being T-boned twice (thank goodness the people coming saw me!) From what I’ve seen it is the ABS that is sensitive, but I’m not certain. I just know that it is dangerous and concerns me with children in the car. Dealer could not reproduce and told me it was “normal” over uneven surfaces- even asked why I was braking over the tracks (there is usually a stoplight or stop sign right after!). Hope this gets figured out quickly before someone gets seriously injured or killed, as I see many others have experienced the same. Truly a scary experience every time it happens.
*ABS, yes available for inspection, you can completely examine my car *ABS kicked in without need, hard braking would not work, car pulsed into intersection *No *No *No Thousands are experiencing this involuntary ABS implementation and Hyundai is aware. Today my 2024 and a new 2025 were in the Dealership with the very same problem. My first instance occurred in July 2024
On a number of occasions, the vehicle does not stop when hitting the brakes. The car shudders and shakes violently, while continuing to lunge forward before finally stopping. This has happened to me approaching crosswalks, intersections, and stop signs. This is a problem for many reasons as it is a safety hazard for me and my family, as well as other drivers and pedestrians. I brought my car to the dealership on July 11th, and they told me they had heard of this problem before. They would not return my vehicle because it was a safety issue that Hyundai Corporate is still investigating. On 8/6, my vehicle was returned to me. The dealership said they were not able to replicate the problem (after driving it for 3 miles). They did not fix my car or change anything, but corporate told them to release all vehicles with this issue. This is a safety concern that Hyundai is not addressing.
When traveling on a bumpy road the brakes failed to engage almost causing an accident. This happen twice within the last 10’days.
I have noticed repeatedly when the 3 following conditions are met the anti lock brakes do not function correctly. The vehicle is moving slower. Below 30mph but usually this is below 15 mph. The vehicle goes over a bump or series of bumps I am braking. Usually bringing the vehicle to a stop. The ABS will "overreact" and kick in causing the vehicle to not stop in a timely manner. The ABS will continuously operate until the vehicle stops. Removing your foot from the brakes and reapplying them will fix the problem. Which is counterintuitive as to how ABS works and the problem it alleviates. I would expect a normal vehicle to not even apply the ABS in such a situation as other than some normal bumps or cracks in the road all other conditions are normal. I am not slamming the brakes. I am not employing any emergency steering input. This is just me coming to a slow stop. Note this is an ongoing issue and was not a one time event.
