Anytime driving on a bumpy road the brakes do not work correctly. When driving on a bumpy road I can feel the abs take over and I lose control over braking. Eventually I have to slam on the brakes or the computer does. Feels extremely unsafe since there are lots of brick roads around me. This has happened since I purchased the vehicle. I just researched this issue and it seems to be known a issue.
2025 Hyundai Palisade driver assistance complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 31 of 31, newest first, as owners wrote them.
A Class action lawsuit has been filed for this Issue which Hyundai refuses to acknowledge our 2025 Palisade is having this issue on a regular basis.When it occurs the car becomes very difficult to stop we feel as do the lawyers in the class action in New York California and Ohio that this is a serious safety situation.We have had the car to the dealer and as previous owners have stated it is not acknowledged.
When driving on uneven bumpy roads, I find my ABS gives a collision warning and engages the brakes. I’ve almost crashed once already and I don’t know what to do. Also when parking in tight spots, the ABS turns on due to collision warning and instantly activates the brakes, causing me to almost hit the cars in front or behind me.
. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? ---------- Nothing failed but the lane assist feature forces the car to drive hugging the left lane and not on the center of the road. This can be very dangerous on a freeway when passing big wide trucks. If you use the cruise control this feature automatically turns itself on. . How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? ------ When the lane assist is turned on the car drives close to the left line and not on the center of the road and this could be very dangerous when passing large wide vehicles or those with wide trailers. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? ------------ Yes. I took it to the dealer and they said that's how the car was designed and there is nothing they can do. They asked me to contact the Hyundai Customer Affairs. I opened a case number with Hyundai Customer Affairs. They said that if the dealer did not find a problem then there is nothing they can do. I am stuck with the problem. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? ------------------- See above. When I googled to see if other people are complaining about the issue, I found out that there are other people complaining but no formal complaint has been put forward. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? ------------ The issue has existed from the dealer. There are no warnings or anything
In multiple instances, the ABS is engaging on uneven surfaces when it should not. It occurs when pulling into my driveway and just happened this morning in the car drop off line. I was going no more than 5mph when the car in front of me stopped. I hit the brakes and the ABS engaged (along with the crash alarm) causing a skid. No accident occurred, but it was unsettling.
This vehicle on multiple occasions per week will have what my husband can only describe as the ABS incorrectly kick on. It happens in our driveway, rocky parking lots or streets that aren’t even. The vehicle shakes uncontrollably and the brakes can not be pressed when it happens. In the worst situation we ended up over a curb, luckily the curb seemed to help stop us before potentially hitting a post office. No lights come up on the dashboard and it isn’t easy to replicate as it happens randomly - usually at lower speeds - when coming into a stop. Our safety is put at risk every time we drive, not knowing if the issue will happen; and not being able to brake or remedy the issue. This is not a one time incident - this happens multiple times a week.
Randomly, the second row seat belts will unbuckle by themselves, and the seat belt warning will randomly go off indicating the seat belt was unbuckled all the while no one was sitting in the seat. At random, while using the adaptive cruise control, the car will brake by itself, when there is no car close enough in front to activate the braking system. A few times, while using the adaptive cruise control, the system speed up for no reason. The only way to get the car to stop speeding up was to disengage the cruise control. Braking did not help
When using lane assist the vehicle is pulled into other lanes, including into oncoming traffic. This happens even when the vehicle is centered in the lane. This is extremely dangerous because it can cause an accident. When using cruise control, the lane assist comes on automatically which is extremely dangerous because the vehicle is going at high speeds on the highway. The dealership is aware of the situation. Both the mechanic and the salesman have driven the vehicle with me and experienced the problem. Additionally, the salesman and I drove another 2025 palisade and the lane assist problem was present in that vehicle also.
While driving on the highway using the adaptive cruise control feature in my 2025 Hyundai Palisade, the vehicle suddenly and aggressively braked for no reason — even though there was no vehicle or obstruction ahead. This happened in normal highway traffic and caused vehicles behind me to brake suddenly, putting me at extreme risk of a rear-end collision. It was a very dangerous and terrifying experience that made me unable to use the cruise control feature since. For a brand-new vehicle with advanced safety features, this type of malfunction is completely unacceptable. Hyundai has not provided a proper explanation or resolution. This poses a serious ongoing safety risk to myself and others on the road and must be investigated.
Driving at slow speeds the car’s ABS system kicked in when we transitioned from the road to the parking lot. The parking lot was an even surface and only a slight bump to drive into it. This has happened twice already and the car has 360 miles on the odometer. So comforting! Such great quality !
The Lane Guidance and Lane assist malfunctions / failures numerous times at highway speeds. The vehicle tried to forcibly steer me into the next lane for no reason. Typically a vehicle is approaching from the rear and the acting by the Palisade would have caused a serious accident. This has been documented numerous time since November 25, 2024. The steering places excessive force on the steering which is very traumatic on the highway driving at posted speeds. In the event my wife was driving the 2025 Palisade, she wouldn't have been able to keep the vehicle centered in the lane, due to the forces on the steering wheel. This has occurred numerous times over the past 8 months. No real help from Hyundai Corporate Cust Serv, since Dec 2024. Claim 40091189 While going down a 4 lane road, Babcock Road, Palm Bay FL, the at around 40 mph the vehicle immediately reduced my speed to 20 mph. This nearly caused a major accident. There was no reason for the drop in speed so abruptly. I had not touched any controls, cruise control was not on, there wasn't a school zone. Something caused the vehicle to reach that way immediately. By pushing on the gas pedal did nothing. It remained at around 20 mph till I was able to turn off into a parking lot and the engine turned off. There are numerous intermittent problems with this 2025 Palisade that need to be addressed be for the vehicle causes a major accident and lives lost. The vehicle has been back to dealerships 6 times and no real troubleshooting took place. This has caused numerous near death traumatic experiences. 2025 Palisade is very dangerous at highway speed with the additional Steering safety features turned on. The vehicle has been back to dealerships 6 times and no real troubleshooting took place. This has caused numerous near death traumatic experiences. 2025 Palisade is very dangerous at highway speed with the additional Steering safety features turned on. There are photos, videos and other documentation available.
Getting out of a parking lot onto the road with my family in the car. The car would not break in spite of hitting the breaks before making the turn onto the road, the oncoming vehicle stopped int time to prevent a T-Bone crash . After looking online , seems like a known issue with this model and the Hyundai will not acknowledge it. Please take action
On [XXX] at [XXX} I was exiting [XXX] using the [XXX] exit. As I approached the end of the ramp at approximately 15 miles per hour, the Automatic Braking System engaged unexpectedly. There were no warning lights on the dashboard. The road conditions were dry. The vehicle was not stopping, and I came within inches of rear ending the vehicle in front of me at the red light. I contacted McGovern Hyundai in Wilmington, MA, and a service appointment is scheduled for 7/21. The vehicle has approximately 5,000 miles. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
On June 30th, I turn right, into a parking lot. I take an immediate left and pull up to a stop sign at the end of a fast food driveway. There is about a 30 ft distance between turning right off of the main road and stopping at the stop sign. While attempting to brake, they lock up and skid. I have a scared foster child in the car. I was unable to brake, only using my right foot. I have to apply pressure to finally be able to get it to stop, with my left foot as well. While doing this, I hit my left, big toenail on the brake pedal and rip half of it off. Upon a quick Google search, looking for issues with the brakes, I discover that there is a current lawsuit for 2023-2025 Palisade models for ABS and traction control issues. Clearly this is a reoccurring issue. I take my brand new car into the Hyundai service department to have a look at the brakes. They see nothing wrong.
1) Transmission sticks and doesn't shift at higher speeds, had dealer look at could not replicate. I have had many instances of this happening. Safety issue is this usually happens when accelerating to get on freeway or passing someone and then I need to back off gas pedal to get it to change gears 2) Anti collision warning goes on for no reason - has not engaged brakes. Safety issue is both times I hit the brakes thinking i was going to hit something but there was nothing in front of me.- will talk with dealer service manager this week 3) Anti lock brakes engaged at a normal stop - this could have caused an accident. I was able to stop car going into intersection by slamming breaks on - this has happened twice. Huge safety issue as I was entering a intersection and had trouble stopping the car. will talk with dealer service manager this week
Unknown. In a span of 15 minutes, I encountered 3 events in traffic where accidents could've occurred. I was in the middle turning lane, completely stopped. I tried to accelerate and start left turn when the car shut down, all lights on dashboard lit up. There's an alert saying push P (park) and restart engine. It took 2 or 3 times of trying to get the car to start. Once started the engine and oil lights came on. They went off soon after. Luckily, the car stopped before the turn started or there may have been an accident. I continue my drive down the street, come to an intersection where I slowly brake, the front passenger tire hit a pothole and the car slid into intersection (my foot still on the brake) instead of coming to a compete stop before the intersection. Again, accident avoided only because the oncoming traffic passed before car slid forward. Lastly, trying to get home safely and shaken badly, I come to another intersection. I'm the first car with 4 cars behind me. I'm completely stopped at a red light. The light turns green, I attempt to accelerate to move through light and the car shuts down again. All lights on dashboard light up, the emergency brake is automatically engaged and I spend the light cycle trying to get the car to restart. I had to release the emergency parking brake, put car in park, try to push start button. Last steps repeated more than once. Thank goodness the cars behind me were paying attention and didn't drive based on the light being green. There was no warning for any of these events. It was extremely scary and I don't trust the car to drive it further. I'm having it towed to the dealership for inspection. This is a 2025 with 636 miles on it and about 8 incidents regarding safety since purchased less than 2 months ago.
When exiting a paking lot, the Vechile did not Warn/Detect or di not Stop, while there was a 2 feet rock in the front of the bumper, whcih is 2 feet by 2 feet. The big rock hit exactly between the 2 sesonrs and no waring or didnt stop the vechile from colliding which damged the whole front bumper. I had my 2 kids and wife in the vechile, the only concern, I have is my wife drives the vechile all time, if it did not detect/warn/stop before hitting a big rock, what is the garentee it will save us from any major accidents. I took to the delar ship, havent got an appoitment for 2 weeks just to look at the sensors and they say to call Hundai Coustomr service and after 2 weeks of taking to Hundai customer service they are asking me to deal with the delaer ship. and they are pointing to each other while I get no response. and all they say is there is No way to pull the sensor information prior to tha accident.
I have a 2025 Hyundai Palisade with ABS issue that has occurred at least 3 times since first occurrence at 1700 miles while on an incline turning right rode on rumble strip at about 15 to 20mph. The abs activated no abs light on dash, ride became extremely bumping and car will not stop at the light before the stop light. The was not able to steer left or right. This situation occurred two more times at decline and incline while turning at light. The car felt extremely unsafe when this event occurred.
I was driving on a road that was very rough with many bumps and the car (well in front of me) began to slow down to avoid a big pot hole, I applied my brakes to slow down before I got close to that car. Because the road was rough, as many others have filed the same complaint now, my Palisade engaged the ABS and the car coasted much farther than it shoudl have with the amount of brake pressure I was applying to stop before I collided with the vehicle slowing in front of me. The ABS prevented me from stopping before I almost hit the car who at that point had stopped in front of me, the forward collision warning came on and the emergency braking applied violently which almost caused a wreck behind me as well becuase the person behind me was not prepared to me to come to a complete abrupt halt. The palisade stopped itself after the ABS wouldn't let me stop soon enough to avoid a collision in front of me - almost causing a wreck behind me. With a simple google search, this ABS engaging on rough roads is a major common problem that Hyundai needs to address before we're all paying for wrecks that we didn't cause due to driver neglience but rather the functionality of the vehicle is causing the safety problem. I immediately called my dealership and have an appt for them to look at it early next week. I'm frightened this will cause me or my wife and kids to be in a wreck that could have been prevented.
While driving at approximately 20 mph on rough asphalted road (city road under construction) I applied the brakes in a normal fashion only to be met with violent shaking of the car and an unresponsive brake pedal. After pumping the brakes several times I was able to bring the car to an abrupt halt, narrowly avoiding an accident, i.e., I was inches away from smashing the car in front of me. The violent shaking felt similar to when an ABS is engaged, though more pronounced. I have an appointment with the dealer next week but am documenting the event given the numerous reports I found online and the multiple reports of the dealers doing nothing to remedy the safety issue. The vehicle has not—as of yet—been expected by the dealer. No warning lamps or messages appeared during the incident. This happened once before under similar circumstances approximately two weeks ago but I wrote it off as a "one off."
Hyundai "Smart Cruise Control (SCC)" I had my SCC set at 54mph. I entered a broad curve, which was gentle enough that it was safe to maintain that speed. Ahead was a left-turn turnout lane for vehicles wanting to make a left turn off the highway. This turn lane is part of the broad curve, too. A vehicle was stopped ahead in this appropriate turn-off lane waiting for oncoming traffic to clear. As my vehicle entered the curve, the radar/camera at the front of my car detected this stopped vehicle a little ahead of me, and immediately began to brake my car into a panic stop. I was thrown forward a little in the seat, and the vehicle immediately behind me had to suddenly brake, too, in order to avoid read-ending me. These was no need for this of course. With conventional cruise control, I would have been able to navigate through the curve at the set speed, and all vehicles in the vicinity, including mine and the vehicle behind me, would have been safe. The Hyundai owner's manual points out that the SCC may well malfunction in curve situations (among many, many other situations). Smart Cruise Control is an accident waiting to happen. Please, please get this feature OFF of vehicles sold in the United States. Return control of the vehicle to the drive, not some camera. Thank you.
