NHTSA Complaint #11527527 — 2020 HYUNDAI PALISADE

n November 2022 my Hyundai Palisade was recalled because of the tow hitch being a fire hazard. I took my car in thinking that it was fixed. I didn't tow anything until March 2023 and when I went to hook up the u-haul I had rented it was not working. There was no power coming from tow hitch to make the break lights work on the u-haul. The company tested it to make sure it was my car and not the trailer and it was definitely my car not putting out any power. I took my car back into the dealership, and they let me know it was fixed again. In May 2023 I went to tow my jet ski and once again the lights did not work when I hooked it up. I took it back in and they said that I need a new wiring system and wiring harness, but they did not have it in stock. None of the dealerships had it. I started doing my own research and found out that this recall is the same thing for November 2022 and the reason the electric to my trailer wasn't working when hooked up to my Palisade is because back in November the fuse was pulled because of the fire hazard. Hyundai has repeatedly not been able to fix this problem. I bought my Palisade specifically for the towing capacity so I could tow small items around. I have not been able to use it. I have escalated my complaint to Hyundai USA, but no one seems to care to fix it. I have asked for a rental car to help me tow items, but they do not want to supply this or fix my car so I'm able to do it with my own car. Hyundai has had 7 months to get this fixed. This is ridiculous and very frustrating. I either need my car fixed as I am paying for something that I am not receiving or I need my car to be traded in for a new model that has towing capacity.
