Seat Belts

I was driving my vehicle on 5/24/26 and my daughter’s seatbelt came unlatched while driving. The sensor went off and she was quickly able to belt it back. However, I do not feel safe transporting my children in this vehicle and do not have extra seats due to the third row recall as well.

To Whom It May Concern: I am submitting this complaint regarding a serious and ongoing safety defect involving the second-row driver-side seat belt in my Hyundai Palisade. I purchased this vehicle new on December 11, 2025, after being informed that the applicable seat belt recall repair had already been completed by the dealership on December 4, 2025. Despite the recall repair being performed prior to sale, the second-row driver-side seat belt continues to malfunction. On multiple occasions while the vehicle has been in motion, the seat belt has unexpectedly unlatched on its own while occupied by a passenger. This creates a severe safety hazard and leaves the passenger completely unprotected during travel. The issue has occurred repeatedly and has made the second-row driver-side seat unsafe to use. This defect is especially concerning because the vehicle was sold as repaired and safe following completion of the recall campaign. The continued failure of the seat belt system raises concerns that the recall remedy may be ineffective or incomplete. I am requesting that Hyundai Motor America and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigate this matter immediately. I also request that Hyundai provide a permanent repair solution and determine whether additional Hyundai Palisade vehicles may still be experiencing similar seat belt latch failures even after recall service has been completed. Vehicle Information: •Year/Model: Hyundai Palisade •VIN: [XXX] •Purchase Date: [XXX] •Recall Repair Completion Date: December 4, 2025 •Selling Dealer: Holler Hyundai 1150 N Orlando Ave Winter Park FL 32789 •Current Mileage: 8,169 I am extremely concerned about the safety of my passengers and believe this defect presents a significant risk of injury in the event of sudden braking or a collision. Please contact me regarding next steps and investigation of this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving over a bumpy service road to enter a highway, the ABS and traction control systems reacted and applied braking which caused me to have no control of my brakes and I was unable to stop my car and entered the highway without the ability to stop at the stop sign. Fortunately, there were no cars coming, had there been, myself and others could have been injured and my vehicle and others would have been damaged. I have reported this to my dealership, Safford Hyundai-Leesburg VA. I have a recall letter for a ABS system update that I was told could wait and be done when the parts for the seatbelt recall arrived and at that appointment all recalls would be done. I was told it was not a safety issue and it was okay to continue driving. That is far from the truth. There were NO warning lights displayed on the dash. The dealership was aware of what could happen as confirmed by the service department when I called.

I purchased a 2025 Hyundai Palisade vin [XXX] on August 13,2025. My car was parked in my driveway on May 15 2025. During the day I walked past it and saw no crack in the windshield. At 4:33 I got in the car to run an errand and discovered a crack in the windshield. The crack started in the middle of the windshield at the top, ran down the windshield and stopped in the middle of the windshield. There was no indication of that anything struck the windshield as the vehicle was parked in the same spot all day. I understand that these cracks are common on this vehicle. This email is to document my complaint, as proof of the defect and the basis of my warranty claim to Hyundai.
