ENGINE
I started smelling coolant fumes in my vehicle. Upon inspecting the coolant reservoir, I noticed it was empty. Upon inspecting the radiator itself, I noticed that some of the coolant was leaking. Fumes associated with the leaked liquid touching hot parts in the engine were entering the vehicle cabin. I noticed there was a technical bulletin regarding this issue for Hyundai Palisades. I informed the dealer as well as Hyundai corporate. Despite the technical bulletin, both entities ignored my issue and said it was not covered under warranty. In addition to potentially impacting the engine (if the coolant runs out), I believe the fumes are toxic and pose a serious health risk to passengers. As this seems to be a well known problem, I believe it needs to result in a recall (and not a technical bulletin).

SUSPENSION
I have a popping noise coming from the rear driver side suspension and it rides rough. I have been told by Hyundai that my rear shocks are leaking and from a different shop that my rear shock mount and absorber are causing the noise.

THE 2021HYUNDAI PALISADE AT A FOUR WAY LIGHT STOP BUSY INTERSECTION. UPON GIVING HAS AND MAKING THE LEFT TURN FROM CIMMIRON UNTO SARATOGA BLVD THE VEHICLE WAS MAKING A CLUNKING NOISE LIKE IF VEHICLE IN 4WD BUT THE VEHICLE IS AN AWD AND IT LOSS LIKE POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION ALMOST REAR ENDED AND HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE BECAUSE THE LIGHT BEGUN TO CHANGE. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HYUNDAI AND FOUND OUT ONLINE AND AT THE DEALER THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH AWD PALISADES. THERE IS EVEN A TSB BULLETIN FOR THIS ISSUE, THE 4WD COUPLING STARTS GOING BAD AND MAKES VEHICLE NOISES AND LOSE POWER IN DRIVETRAIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND ACTION MUST BE TAKEN BEFORE LAWSUITS COMING FLYING. FOR CRYING OUTLOUD I HAD MY GRAND BABIES WITH ME AND ALMOST GOT INTO A THREE-WAY CAR ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE PALISADE DECIDED NOT TO GO IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO FIX ALL FAULTY AWD COUPLINGS THAT MAKE THE TIRES TURN PROPERLY. MY FRIEND HAS A 23 MODEL AND HAVING SAME ISSUES IT IS ALSO AN ALL-WHEEL DRIVE PALISADE. DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS HYUNDAI IS AWARE AND THERE IS A FORUM ON THIS ISSUE BUT NO RECALL THIS IS INSANE.

Subject: Stop-Sale Violation — Hyundai Palisade Recall #25V607000 I purchased a 2025 Hyundai Palisade (VIN [XXX], from Napleton Palatine Hyundai, Illinois. The dealer completed the sale even though the vehicle was under an active stop-sale order related to Recall #25V607000 / Campaign 283 (Seat Belt Buckle). The recall remedy is not yet available, and the dealership has refused to release the vehicle after purchase. This situation leaves the consumer paying for a loan and insurance without possession of the vehicle and represents a potential stop-sale violation under 49 U.S.C. §30120(i). Please investigate this case and confirm whether the dealership violated federal recall and consumer protection requirements.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
My sunroof was working perfectly fine a month ago. I opened it while i was driving to get some air 10/28/2025 and heard a cracking noise. I immediately stopped it. The glass was off the track and it would not close. It only opens a little then stops. Took it to Hyundai dealership and they said in their report"the tracks are cracked, glass came off the track and tracks are warped." This is going to cost me 3k and this was clearly a malfunction of the vehicle!!

ENGINE
The engine failed due to oil consumption. The engine burns to much oil. It burns more oil than it holds during normal intervals between changes. It also did NOT give any oil lights or engine lights on the dash (not one indicator came on). When we took it in the service advisor told us the computer had indicated a problem, but that was for the technician.
