2026 HYUNDAI PALISADE — Problems, Recalls & Safety Data

Purchased a brand new car at Gerald North Aurora on 12/31 with 400 miles and on 01/25 car wont start with 717 miles and I had to register a road side assistance for jump start and after service center visit they replaced with a brand new battery. And same thing happened on 02/16 at 942 miles after inspection they said battery drained and they had to charge it. There is an issue with my car and I need it replaced with as it is a new car.

On at least 8 occasions, the vehicle has issued a warning to take control now of the vehicle and then begun to stop the vehicle. On 2/16/26, it tried to stop the vehicle on two occasions, and the driver had to press the gas pedal as a car was approaching from behind. I have videos and dash cam videos of several occurrences. It also has determined that an overpass was an obstacle and tried to stop the vehicle. I have taken it to the Hyundai dealership 5x. Hyundai cannot duplicate the issue, but the videos clearly show the problem. It is random. There is a significant defect with the sensors and/or software.

The contact owns a 2026 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that while inside a residential parking lot and attempting to park, the vehicle unintendedly accelerated independently while in the Drive Gear Position and crashed into a parked vehicle, where it came to a stop. The contact stated that no air bags deployed in the vehicle. No warning light illuminated. The contact stated no injuries were sustained. No medical attention was required. The contact mentioned she spoke with the insurance company, where it was pending inspection and repairs. A police report was not filed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 6,100.

Constant and consistent Alerting (Attention) with the (steering and eye alert) icons present. NOTE: It would be helpful to understand and be told the exact sensor or type of alert (eye camera, steering input, forward camera) that triggered the alert! As it stands, every few seconds to minutes the alert states driver is not attentive. Eventually between 2-8 warnings is unrecoverable and the cruise control shuts itself off after a myriad set of warnings. No matter what is attempted the car ends the cruise control and the driver MUST maintain control at that point (decelerating from highway/interstate speeds dramatically). Myself and all family drivers experience this IMMEDIATELY after activation. Dealership has reported no trouble after 50 miles of driving (as stated). I have video of this issue and am adding them to youtube (2026 hyundai palisade cruise control fail) for others to see. This is UNSAFE and DISTRACTING! The alerts alone are enough to deactivate this (if available, but: it cannot be deactivated!) let alone decelerating from speed for "no good reason" outside of drivers DIRECT control. The only solution I HAVE is to not use cruise control and the safety features (as they are marketed to work) and negate the safety features I purchased the vehicle for.
