1. Component or System Failed Seat Anchor/Restraint System: Driver's seat mount bolts left hand-threaded following Campaign 283 recall service. (RO available for inspection) Suspension & Steering Geometry: Alignment/subframe failure causing severe tire wear under 6k miles across 2024, 2025, and 2026. (RO's available for inspection) Dealer Documentation System: Falsified "Recall Declined" entry in WebDCS and on RO, omitted and undocumented flagged safety recall on RO (Oct 28, 2025), unrecorded oil leak inspection findings, withheld technician notes and VIN and repair records. (RO's and Webdcs,- Warranty History available, technicians notes possibly available). 2. Safety (Me, Husband, and 2 Children) Put at risk Seat Anchor / Restraint System -Loss of Control: Loose seat bolts allow the driver's seat to shift unexpectedly, impairing pedal and steering control while driving. -Restraint Failure: Unsecured bolts risk complete seat detachment during a crash, rendering seatbelts and airbags ineffective. Suspension & Steering Geometry -Tire Blowout Hazard: Severe tire wear under 6k miles drastically increases the risk of a high-speed blowout. -Unstable Handling: Continuous misalignment causes vehicle pulling, reduced braking efficiency, and compromised control during emergency maneuvers. Dealer Documentation System -Forced Operation of Unsafe Vehicle: Logging safety recalls as "Declined" and omitting flagged recall alerts in WebDCS and on Repair Orders hides known safety hazards from official records, leaving uncorrected recall risks active while driving. -Concealment of Mechanical Hazards: Suppressing oil leak inspection results and withholding technical VIN notes hides active fluid or mechanical defects, creating sudden engine failure, loss of power in traffic, or fire hazards without the driver's awareness. 3. Problem reproduced confirmed most(yes), some(no) 4. Manufacturer inspected = yes to most UNKNOWN to some 5. No, seat moving, big+uneven tire wear under 6k

With 2100 miles on the Hyundai Palasade Calligraphy Hybrid, we were driving on a well established dirt and gravel road when we experienced a loud pop or bang. We saw nothing in the road ahead in the form of a pot hole or protruding rock, etc. A minute later, a low tire pressure warning light came on. The tire went flat. Upon close inspection there was a cut like slit in the tire just below the bead line of the wheel rim. A look back on the road traveled, produced no clear obstruction that might have caused this. Our assessment of this is a sidewall blowout. This new vehicle comes with no spare tire. Only a pump and container of sealant. Installation of this failed to restore the tire for obvious reasons. This Pirelli 265 45R21 Scorpion MS tire is rare and not in stock anywhere. We had to tow our vehicle 50 miles to a Hyundai dealer who told us we had to wait for them to order a tire. We have spent close to $400.00 in Expenses and still did not pay for a tire yet. Searching the web reveals similar problems with this tire. This has resulted in a negative customer experience with the vehicle and Hyundai alike.

I was driving my 2025 Hyundai Palisade Night Edition on a rural highway at 55mph 245/50R20 102V when I heard a boom. The right front tire sidewall had blown out in 2 spots. I put the spare on and redrove the section where the tire blew out and the highway had no potholes or debris that would have caused any issue.

I am reporting a safety-related defect with a 2025 Hyundai Palisade SEL. Within days of purchase (December 14, 2024), I began experiencing abnormal noise and vibration from the rear of the vehicle. The issue consistently occurs at highway speeds (45–55 mph) and over bumps. The problem has been present since the first week of ownership and has worsened over time. Multiple inspections confirmed the issue: •Selling dealership dismissed it as “normal tire noise” without proper diagnosis •Second Hyundai dealership confirmed severe abnormal wear (cupping) on all four tires •Independent inspection (Firestone) confirmed uneven tire wear, alignment out of specification, and ongoing vibration Despite early reporting, Hyundai Motor America has refused to provide a root cause diagnosis or take responsibility. They denied tire replacement, attributing the issue to tire wear. This explanation is not valid. Tires do not develop severe cupping shortly after purchase without an underlying defect such as improper alignment or suspension issues. This condition creates a safety risk: •vibration reduces vehicle stability at highway speeds •uneven wear increases risk of tire failure The issue affects all four tires and was present almost immediately after purchase, indicating a likely manufacturing or setup defect. The problem has been confirmed by multiple service providers but remains unresolved. The vehicle is not safe to operate under normal driving conditions. I request immediate investigation into a potential manufacturing defect affecting vehicle safety. Hyundai has been aware of this issue since the first week of ownership and failed to take corrective action. Despite multiple documented inspections confirming abnormal tire wear and vibration, no root cause diagnosis or repair has been provided. This raises serious concerns about a potential systemic defect affecting vehicle safety.

We were driving on a highway between two towns with no other cars on either side of the highway and our sunroof exploded. We pulled to the side of the road thinking there was a gunshot or a tire exploded to discover the shattered sunroof. Thankfully we had the slide closed and it contained the glass pieces. The sunroof class was pointed upward. No rocks were bouncing around and nothing hit our windshield. The dealership warranty manager says it was a road hazard but there was no hazard to be had around us.

We heard a very loud gunshot noise on 2023-10-20 while traveling on the I40 during a weekend road trip. We immediately got off the upcoming exit to inspect the tires for a blowout and other vehicle issues, however no issues were seen. No 18 wheelers or construction vehicles were near us at the time of the event. Later on we kept hearing a rattling sound that was baffling. The shattered moonroof was discovered when the shade was slightly cracked when inspecting the culprit of the rattling noise. I immediately closed the cracked moonroof shade and checked the top of the vehicle to discover a huge hole in the moonroof. Thankfully the sunshade protected us from the shattered glass and no one was hurt. The vehicle was taken to the dealership upon returning home on 2023-10-23 for an inspection and they observed it appeared that the moonroof blew out (up position). The dealership will be covering the replacement of the moonroof under warranty.

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.

My tire was losing air so we took it to a local tire shop to be repaired thinking it had a nail in it or something. Turns out it was losing air because the wheel was cracked and slightly bent. The only 2 people who drive this car are my husband and I and neither of us could recall hitting or running over anything. The Hyundai dealer refused to submit a warranty claim (car had 16,200 miles on it), so we called Hyundai corporate and they submitted a warranty claim that would be assigned to a case manager and they would get back to us. That was 5/24 and by 6/15 we still hadn't heard anything back from them in spite of calling 3 more times to check the status of the case. I believe either this particular wheel was defective or the engineering design of the wheel is wrong. We still have the wheel for inspection. No warning lights other than the low tire pressure warning came on. The dealer inspected the wheel twice and Les Schwab (tire place) inspected it twice and installed a used ("take-off") wheel for us yesterday. The tire had no damage and there was no damage of any kind anywhere on my car, so I find it hard to believe that we could have hit something so hard to crack the wheel but had no other damage and couldn't remember any such event. The crack is over 1 inch long and absolutely could have caused a blowout or accident, so we weren't able to use the car much for a month except right around our home.
