While braking at a stop, and encountering a pothole (has occurred even without a pothole on straight surfaces), it feels like the is ABS kicking in to avoid wheel lockup, and apparent slowing which rapidly mimics activities that could cause hard braking. Similar to when the car is on ice/snow and the car pulses to stop. Unsafe, as the vehicle does not top when intended and forces the vehicle to take longer to stop with the potential to involuntarily enter an intersection. I have had this occur multiple times. I am fearful that I will potentially have an accident with my grandchildren in the car. Dealership is aware of multiple issues, but cannot duplicate and thus will not resolve. No warning lights, or notifications occurred. Has been discussed on 2024 Palisade Calligraphy forums. Review other reviews on reddit where other models have been affected.

After I purchased within a month I was approaching a parking spot and I applied brakes. They wouldn’t press down and the car start jumping forward. I pressed hard and the car would not stop and I hit a curb and it finally stopped. Second time: Approaching a stop sign I went over an un even are in the asphalt and the car jumped forward and I applied brakes and it jumped around and would not stop. I took to purchasing dealership and told them and showed them online issues others were having. They gave a rental for a week and called and said to come and get the car they could not duplicate the issue. I told them I was afraid and didn’t want to hit someone or a person. They said unless they could duplicate there was nothing they could do. I changed dealerships and plan to take to them for the issue. It has happened to me on a dirt road approaching the entrance to make a turn. I am making sure before I take back that I can have someone ride with me and show them. I don’t want them telling me they cannot duplicate again. It is very scary and if a pedestrian was in front of me I have no control of the car when this happens.

Whenever the car goes over bumps in the road at low speeds the ABS system activates. You can feel a “grinding” sensation emanating from the brake pedal. When it happens, if you try to engage the brakes, they don’t engage for several seconds. It happened to me recently with my kids in the car and we almost rolled into a busy inte…

This happened many times, almost causing an accident once. When driving at a slow speed over a small bump in the road, and braking, the ABS system goes haywire and the vehicle fails to stop.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? When braking at low speeds, breaks start to shake (almost as if the ABS kicked in) while going over uneven ground or a bump. Almost as though the brakes skip making it so the car won't come to a stop. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Car felt like it wasn't going to stop or took longer to stop in a situation where the ABS did not need to kick on. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, but they say all the cars do it but I see it as a problem since it prevents the car from stopping normally. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lights or messages when it happens, it just randomly happens.

The brakes in this car have a major safety issue. Many others besides me have experienced this issue I have discovered through reddit and youtube. Under very specific conditions the brakes fail to work properly. At slow speeds over uneven surfaces when you hit the brakes occasionally the car will fail to stop and continue on an addition 10-16 feet before finally the brakes kick in and stop. It's a helpless feeling as you press down as hard as possible on the brakes but the car continues to move. This can be difficult to recreate because it does not happen every time, I have found this happens most often driving over train tracks slowly while applying brakes but its also happened in other instances like hit a pothole at slow speeds while applying the brakes. This has probably happened at least a dozen times since Ive had this car about 8 months. I would guess the speed it happens at is about 5-15 mph, never at high speeds thankfully. I feel nervous driving with my babies in the car, I am extra cautious knowing about this issue to attempt to stop much earlier than I normally would. This problem would most likely cause a fender bender with the car stopped ahead of me but what if there's uneven surface while Im stopping at a red light and I end up sliding out into traffic? Please please thoroughly investigate this issue before my family or another family has a tragic problem! Thank you

When braking while going over bumps/railroad tracks/rough roads, the brakes rattle/pump as if the ABS has kicked in and the car doesn’t slow down/stop.
