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.

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.
