2024 Hyundai Palisade Brakes

I was in stop and go traffic on a side road. I was traveling about 5-15 mph on an uneven road surface. The traffic stopped in front of me and I applied my brakes. I heard the grinding sound of the anti-lock brakes but my car did not stop. My foot was to the ground on the brake and it didn’t even slow down. I ended up hitting the car in front of me. This has happened before but I never hit anything before. It happens all of the time on uneven road surfaces such as man hole covered, rail road crossings, or construction or potholes.

When I try to stop on a brick road the abs comes on and the breaks press up on my foot and the car does not stop immediately as it should.

When applying the brakes on my 2024 Hyundai Palisade on a rough surface, the steering wheel shakes violently, and the brakes do not engage properly. I have on multiple occasions ended up in the cross traffic travel lane. So far I have not been in an accident. I took my car in to the dealership and they were unable to duplicate this issue and told me there was nothing they could do. They want me to come back after my next episode with the brakes.

The palisade seems to have issues when breaking over potholes or bumpy streets. I think you could say they lock up and do not stop as they should. In addition the car actually shutters. This happens more than once in a daily basis because of the area I live in. I’ve brought it back to the dealer twice and because they drive on smooth roads, they do not duplicate this issue, which means they’re likely avoiding the issue because I can tell them where it happens all around my town. It’s extremely unsafe.

I was leaving a parking lot and getting ready to turn onto a busy road with my family. As I approached the road and started to brake, we went over a number of pot holes. When that happened, the whole car started to shake and I noticed that we were not slowing down. I don't know what was going on but I was scared. We were approaching a busy road quickly and I did not feel safe. I pressed HARD down on the brakes and eventually we came to a HARD stop. I told my wife what happened and she said that similar things have happened to her when she was braking and she had to swerve off of the road to avoid hitting the car in front of her. There is definately something going on with the ABS system. Going over the bumps through off the entire system and would't let me brake. I have not taken it to a dealer and it has never been inspected by anyone. Prior to the issue, there were no warning signs that came up prior to the issue, or afterwards.

•What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? My brakes. When I’m driving slowly over any type on bump in the road, railroad track, pulling in a driveway, dirt roads, or gravel roads my brakes lock up the whole front of my car shakes and the vehicle almost jumps up and down and then it takes about 3-5 seconds for me to be able to slam on my brakes to come to a complete stop while still inching forward before I can fully stop. •How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I’ve almost ran into a mailbox, almost got rear ended and almost braked out onto a highway because the brakes locked up. My safety and the safety of other is major concern with the brake issue and not being able to stop, those few seconds make a difference. •Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I’ve had my car to the dealership 5 times. The second time one guy was able to duplicate the issue, so they fixed some part, but that didn’t solve my issue I had it back to them within a couple of days. The other times they have not been able to duplicate the issue. •Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? This last time I brought it an engineer was supposed to come and look at it but when the tech explained what is going on he says it supposed to do that. It is not supposed to what it is doing because it’s a major safety issue for me and others since I can’t break. •Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? When the issue arises there are no warning lamps or messages that come up on the dashboard or anywhere. Also, no code is thrown when the dealership hooks it up to the machine. Another thing when I’m driving down the road sometimes you can feel the brakes wanting to lock up for no reason at all. Before I get to any bump

Issues where the breaks are ineffective. Usually at slower speeds going over brick road, uneven surface. Told hyundai about first incident when they did oil change on December 27th (at which time it had occurred twice) and they stated no issues with breaks. Has happened now more often (averaging one time a month or more). Took my vehicle in again on May 20th, 2025, they said they couldn't replicate the issue so I went back to the dealership on May 21st, 2025 and did a ride with a tech where we got the issue to trigger multiple times. Dealership had not provided an update until a few minutes ago. They stated they called their tech service line and that "they could not advise them on a repair" - service manager said that's the first time he's heard that and the car is with his manager and who will be trying to call their local area rep. Said if they cannot advise on a repair, it may not be an approved under warranty repair.

I have owned the 2024 Hyundai Palisade for 11 months. On average, I experience at least twice a month an issue with the braking system when coming to a stop. It appears mainly associated with uneven road or where loose gravel or asphalt maybe on the roadway. The vehicle's frontend vibrates and the brakes do not grab and hold. I have to release the brake pedal and then reapply the brakes, all the while my vehicle is continuing moving forward. Today, I was coming up to a stop light and almost went into cross traffic.

I have noticed repeatedly when the 3 following conditions are met the anti lock brakes do not function correctly. The vehicle is moving slower. Below 30mph but usually this is below 15 mph. The vehicle goes over a bump or series of bumps I am braking. Usually bringing the vehicle to a stop. The ABS will "overreact" and kick in causing the vehicle to not stop in a timely manner. The ABS will continuously operate until the vehicle stops. Removing your foot from the brakes and reapplying them will fix the problem. Which is counterintuitive as to how ABS works and the problem it alleviates. I would expect a normal vehicle to not even apply the ABS in such a situation as other than some normal bumps or cracks in the road all other conditions are normal. I am not slamming the brakes. I am not employing any emergency steering input. This is just me coming to a slow stop. Note this is an ongoing issue and was not a one time event.

This has occured multiple times. In each event, I was driving over 30mph, and had to brake hard (pushing on the brake pedal to an effort to slow down rapidly). The car's brakes locked up ...the abs engaged and braking was good, but it did not release as i let my foot of the brake, causing my car to come to a near complete stop. The car behind me, nearly rear ended me. As noted above, the vehicle's brakes do not release, after a hard brake, when you pull pressue OFF of the brake pedal.

Over a bumpy street coming to a red light (stop) car stalled and failed to stop almost hitting another car. Car made a funny noise and brake petals needed alot of pressure to pust to floor

When going over small bumps on road and applying breaks, ABS system kicked in and would not stop car. I had to swerve away from car in front of me from stop hitting it. While doing some investigation on this 2024 Hyundai Palisades it seems that is a common problem.

Went over railroad tracks approaching intersection approximately 40 feet from tracks. Tapped brakes while going over tracks (light was red) and anti-lock brake system kicked in. I was suddenly unable to stop the vehicle as the brakes were not working and I was continuing to lurch forward toward the intersection at approximately 10 mph. The brakes continued to fail for approximately 1 - 1.5 seconds before I let off and slammed down on them as hard as I could and finally slammed to a stop. My car at this point, had gone slightly into the intersection, but not enough to get clipped by a car. Had I not let off the brake and re-hit it with force, I fear I would have continued to roll into the intersection where I would have gotten T-boned by traffic. There were no warning lights or lamps that kicked on when this happened but the steering wheel and brake were vibrating. This is a newer vehicle - less than a year from purchase, but I plan on taking it to the dealership to look at.

I love my palisade but the only terrifying thing is what happens at low speeds if I apply the brake on uneven surface/pothole it feels as if the brake falls out from under my foot, a loud rattling noise/vibration happens and it becomes nearly impossible to stop. Extremely dangerous I have a [XXX] and another child on the way. I don’t know how this car got top safety pick with this issue. I have read many others having the same issue with their 2024 palisade. I have had a few near misses with accidents because of this happening. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

driving in parking lot towards exit to turn onto street. speed approximately 10 - 15 mph. I applied the brakes when approaching the stop sign at the intersection. The brakes shuddered hard and the vehicle did not slow or stop. I let off the brakes and immediately hard pressed the brake peddle to attempt to stop the vehicle before entering the intersection and on coming traffic. The vehicle then stopped with the nose of the vehicle in the intersection. The brakes failed again. This was the 2nd time today I had an issue. The road surface was dry and the temp was in the 60's. There was no impact/contact with any other vehicle, but it was once again very close to having a wreck. The vehicle was at Hyundai for almost 90 days for the same issue late last year and into 2025. Hyundai repeatedly said there was a software update coming, but that never happened and they ultimately said there was no issue, no update, and come get the vehicle. I will be taking the vehicle back to Hyundia today. There are "NO" warning lights, faults, or any other indicator of a failure.

Driving on a 4 lane street at approximately 25 mph in the right hand lane next to curb when another vehicle swerved from the left lane into my lane. I slammed on the brakes in an attempt to stop and avoid any contact with the other vehicle. All the brakes did was a hard and long shudder, and did not seem to even slow my car let alone stop the car. Fortunately, the other vehicle attempting to swerve into my lane stopped. My vehicle never stopped and only seemed to slow down slightly. All I could do was to move my vehicle more towards the curb. At the time, I did not feel any impact and assumed no contact or damage. The other driver continued down the road and got onto the highway. When I got to a place to stop, I looked at my vehicle and do have damage to the left rear wheel well trim and back quarter fender area. My car would not stop. It felt as the ABS system was modulating hard. The road was dry, and the temp was in the mid 60's. This is not the first issue like this, and Hyundai says there is no problem and they will not fix it. The last time I took into the shop for this, it was there almost 90 days before Hyundai said come get the vehicle.

ABS system kicks in under low speed, light braking situations when going over sudden bumps like train tracks and uneven pavement. This prevents the car from stopping in a normal distance, potentially causing accidents or stopping in the middle of an intersection.

When driving at slow speeds maybe 20-25 mph, I pressed the brake pedal and it vibrated violently and the brakes wouldn’t bite. It felt like it was skidding on ice but the road was completely dry. Very scary. It’s happened several times. This is my second palisade and it happened with my previous one as well. I have zero confidence that the car will stop in an emergency situation.

I was ata yield sign and the car in front of me started to go and had to slam on their brakes because a car ran a stop sign. I had started rolling forward and hit my brakes when I noticed she had hit her brakes. My vehicle started to vibrate and keep going. It did nit stop right away it way like it was just skiding. My vehicle has done this before but this time it did not stop quick enough to avoid hitting the vehicle in front t of me I have notified Hyundai of the issue and after doing research I have found Hyundai is awRe of an issue with the 2023, 2024 and 2025 models. There is also a class action law suit for thus same reason. I am waiting to hear back from Hyundai.

Hi, my name is [XXX] and I leased a 2024 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy last summer. I have been having issues with my car skidding on rough or uneven pavement and I brought the car in for service to check the issue. I was told by the dealership that my issue is "normal" and it's how the ABS system works. This is obviously ridiculous because no car is supposed to skid on regular roads with no snow or ice. The car skids and the wheel shakes and my brakes do not work for a few seconds. I have to basically slam on the brakes and pray the car stops. I told the dealership it is definitely not normal. They said they would check the car and call me. I got a call a couple hours later telling me the ABS system is working fine. When I googled the issue, I saw many, many complaints about this issue and a class action lawsuit that has been filed. I picked up my car and asked the representative to speak to a manager. He said they all leave at 4:00. It was 4:30. I asked him how Hyundai is ok with sending people like me back out on the road knowing the ABS system is faulty and causes loss of brakes? He replied "Until Hyundai issues a recall, there is nothing we can do." I have owned Hyundai cars in the past and have always admired them as a company. They offer great safety and great warranties. But now I ask why they are ignoring this obvious safety issue? What will happen when a person driving a Palisade loses brakes and God forbid hits a car or a person? Please make this right and fix these cars so that we can feel safe on the road. My children drive my car, though I won't be allowing that anymore.Please advise on next steps.

I have had while driving slowly (parking lot speeds) over uneven surfaces like cobblestones the car has trouble breaking, it lurches forward, brakes make terrible noise, and car vibrates. This has occurred at least 3 times. It is unsafe if I would be unable to stop as needed in time.

Brake/traction system inoperable and fails to properly engage during normal driving conditions with variations ranging from: minimally uneven, minimally wet or minimally bumpy surface. When applying the brakes in these circumstances, the vehicle shakes violently while continuing to proceed forward. This has happened when braking at all speeds and as low as under 20mph. My family has narrowly escaped injury and death on multiple seperate occasions from running off of the road, to rear ending another vehicle, to sliding up through busy traffic intersections. We feel unsafe to drive/ride in this vehicle as we feel like we are playing Russian Roulette. This issue was previously communicated to the service dept at local Hyundai dealership but they were not able to find/replicate issue. I have videos now for proof. There have been no warning lights or other messages that would identify any issue with the vehicle.

The ABS system is faulty. When traveling at relatively low speeds (<20 mph) and over uneven surfaces (train tracks, pot holes, speed bumps, entering parking lots) the brake pedal will go all the way to the floor while the vehicle stutters. The ABS makes the vehicle shake even after the surface has returned to normal and the vehicle stopping distance dramatically increases from where it should be. This is repeatedly replicated and has nearly resulted in rear-end collisions. Having driven many, many vehicles with ABS systems this experience is NOT normal and needs to be investigated for a recall.

On December 19th at about 5pm, I was pulling into a gas station driving at about 10-15 MPH when my brakes locked up and the car started shaking. It felt like the anti lock braking system was activated and I did not have full braking control of the vehicle. I was driving slow enough that the vehicle did finally come to a complete stop. The gas station was flat and the road appeared in good condition, but is was dark outside and about 40 degrees F. No warnings were observed on the dash or heads up display. No one was hurt in or outside of the vehicle. We have only had the vehicle for a few months (purchased used from Carvana with only 6k miles) and only 70 hours of drive time where the issue has never been observed or reoccurred. Hyundai has not yet been notified but I will file a report with them and ask for an inspection although I’ve read in Hyuandai forums that they are aware of this issue and have no root cause or solution.

ABS activating for no reason while braking in perfect driving conditions and not allowing the vehicle to come to a stop as needed. The first incident caused me to slide through a stop sign narrowly avoiding other traffic, and the second incident almost caused me to rear end the vehicle in front on me. This is apparently a known issue with Hyundai and needs to be addressed ASAP!
