My location of work has metal grates (to close a metal gate) at the entrance and exit. I’ve experienced many many times at the exit as I am breaking the breaks slipping. I’ve noticed it other times as I break while driving over uneven surfaces. I finally started digging because that’s not normal and it was brand new. It appears others have had the same issue. It doesn’t look like a recall has been issued, but definitely needs to be.

While spending the day at the zoo our sunroof exploded. It has been hot where we live lately. Luckily this happened when nobody was in the car and it was not moving. Had we been moving and had the sun roof exposed that could have been bad. It’s Sunday and tomorrow is a holiday so it might be awhile till we can get it fixed

The engine issue first started as a small knock and hesitation during acceleration, which has now progressed into full misfiring and loss of performance. Diagnostic documents indicate internal mechanical failure. Hyundai has failed to timely fix the issue, and the vehicle remains unsafe to drive. I was issued a loaner vehicle but told not to drive it out of town. This left me and my family without a safe and reliable form of transportation. I am requesting a full investigation and buyback of this vehicle due to repeated failure, poor service response, and continued risk to driver safety.

I leased a brand-new 2025 Hyundai Palisade (Calligraphy trim) on June 27, 2025. Immediately after delivery, I noticed the rear air conditioning system was blowing only hot air, making the third-row seats unusable during summer. Despite calling the dealership and Hyundai Corporate right away, I was unable to receive a timely resolution. I had to take the vehicle in for service, which took several days due to part delays and multiple failed repair attempts. During that time, I was denied a loaner vehicle and had to rent a replacement at my own expense. The issue disrupted my plans, cost me money, and caused significant stress. I believe this is a quality control issue in the climate system, and Hyundai’s inability to promptly fix it made it an unsafe situation for families relying on the vehicle for travel.

Brand new car came with warped rotors and rattling noise unresolved. Major safety issue due to brake failure. A few times braking due to red light, upon braking the car would stutter stop and at times not start stopping until brake pedal fully stepped on, had a few near accidents. At a McDonalds and Wendy’s drive through, foot on brakes but car would still move forward even though was at a complete stop(car moved forward from a complete stop even though foot is still stepping on brake pedal). Have heard rattling on right side of car when braking, unknown cause, mentioned it but dealership completely ignored it due to cannot replicate(happens once in a while), was not documented on invoice, planning to bring into dealership and demanding a full panel diagnostic. Major safety concern because I have children and what if brakes fail at a busy intersection.
