2025 HYUNDAI PALISADE Service Brakes Problems

Since the first week of driving my vehicle in August, I have reported to the dealership that it rides fairly bumpy over any road and fails to properly break if it is a bumpy road, causing me to almost have a collision. The dealership was unable to reproduce the same issue I was having and says that my car drives just fine. No messages have popped up

In general even in slow speed the emergency break kicks in and actually the vehicle is sliding and not stopping. Now in the snow when you try to stop again the vehicle is shaking and sliding instead of stopping

Antilock braking system is malfunctioning. Significant increase in stopping distance, and especially on uneven or wet surfaces. The car shutters and shakes while stopping. We have almost hit a deer, had trouble stopping at intersections, and did not stop in a timely manner while behind another vehicle. General fear knowing if brakes are firmly pressed that the car is unable to stop quickly (as expected with other vehicles).

I have 25 Palisade calligraphy and from the last two months I almost went 7-8 times to the dealership because of the ABS issue. When going over rougher road, railroad tracks, and also uneven surfaces brake is not working at that time. It is an issue that only happens under very specific conditions like slow speeds (under 10 mph), uneven surface (gravel, railroad tracks, speed bumps, driveway entry). Acts like ABS is activated but it the car isn't acknowledging that it is. I work in Manhattan and that is very crowdy place and at that time my car brake is not working, I almost hit the crowd because my car is not stopping at the stop line, it is very serious issue, please consider it and take this feedback.

A dangerous and unpredictable braking issue has plagued my brand-new SUV (under 5,000 miles). On multiple occasions, the brakes have engaged suddenly and without warning while driving, causing the vehicle to stop abruptly in the middle of the road. This creates a hazardous situation with the potential for rear-end collisions, putting my family at risk and causing back pain to my passengers. The same problem also occurs when parking. The dealership requires a five-day service appointment, but the lack of any pre-warning lamps or indicators makes this issue especially concerning.

I had brought my car in because it feels like the antilock brakes kick in on uneven surfaces. I was told there is no issue. This happens again 2 days ago. I have had it happen where I almost hit the person in front of me, the car will not stop. Dry roads. It’s on bumpy roads, more often is a slight downhill. No lights on dash for antilock brakes coming on.

I have an ongoing safety concern on my vehicle, seemingly having to do with the brakes or ABS malfunction. There is a delay in the breaking of the vehicle occasionally in specific circumstances. Typically in a parking lot or stop sign, if there is a buckling of the road or potholes or uneven surfaces between the tires, the vehicle will skid over the surfaces and braking is delayed. Events have occurred 8 documented times and a few more during my ownership of the vehicle. Because this typically happens at a stop sign and the car has driven through the stop sign the issue could absolutely cause a multi exhale accident. Because this issue is surface specific, it is difficult to reproduce and the dealership is unable to find the root cause and fix the vehicle. During the two service visits, the dealer has tried to find the issue by doing a diagnostic scan and did a road test on each of the visits as well. In the four months that I’ve owned this vehicle and 10,000 miles that I have driven. This is happened less than a dozen times – most of the incidents are personally documented. No visible warning lights engage when the events have happened. I have contacted Hyundai consumer affairs and am working with them on a resolution of which neither party is sure of at this point. There is an active case number : [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

the abs system doesn't work properly on uneven, low speed roads. the brakes will not stop i have almost wrecked on multiple occasions. the seat belt located in the middle row, the middle seat belt gets stuck in the plastic causing the belt to stay loose. the vehicle also will shut its self down into "accessory" mode and put me into park not allowing me to move from traffic. it will either "reboot" or power off fully if i hit the ignition, i never know which it will do until it does it. it will sputter as if it is trying not to die if i am setting in a line or parked with the car on.

I was driving slowly, about 5 mph, and was pulling over on a residential street to park on the street, and my Hyundai started shaking…the steering wheel and car were shaking and the brakes weren’t working. I nearly rear ended a car full of people. It did eventually a stop and the whole thing lasted maybe 10 seconds but it was terrifying. I had it towed to the dealership and they can’t seem to duplicate it.

When driving at a low speed and over an uneven driving surface attempting to brake, the abs system unnecessarily engages and causes the car to lock up and skid instead of braking. This almost caused a car accident where my car would not stop like normal and almost skid into a stationary vehicle with an increased stopping distance until it stopped with a jolt. There is a class action lawsuit on this issue in Ohio and New York.

I have had multiple issues when it comes to braking on uneven roads, going over railroad tracks, and going over speed bumps in parking lots. The vehicle will start shaking erratically and lunge forward into oncoming traffic. No warnings or lights came on either. I have now taken my vehicle in to 3 different dealers to have it inspected and have had the issue replicated several times by a 1 of the dealers. The service manager from the dealer i originally bought the vehicle from refused to even inspect the vehicle and told me the only way they will even look at it was if I brought a video showing the issue of the vehicle lunging forward into oncoming traffic. They also stated that this wasn't a warranty issue and that I would be billed for it. The vehicle is brand brand new 2025 Palisade(2 months old) with 2,000 miles. I was advised to open a case with Hyundai and was then told by the case worker that this is how the vehicle is supposed to operate and there are no issues. After further research to see if anyone else has reported this issue, I found 2 class-action lawsuits filed and over 100 complaints filed with the NHSTA as well. I guess I'm not the only one having this exact issue. This is a serious safety issue and should be addressed.

I just had at least my 6th occurrence with my new 2025 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy Night Edition where, while braking at a slow speed, my abs kicked in and wouldn’t stop my car despite pushing the brake to the floor. Finally it abruptly stopped. In all situations, the road surfaces seemed to be slightly uneven or slightly bumpy. Each time this happened, I was traveling very slow and no faster than 10-15 mph. I’ve had my car for less than 5 months and now has happened at least 6 times. I nearly missed rear ending the vehicle in front of me in all cases because the abs was aggressively pulsating but not stopping until almost hitting the vehicle in front of me.

The brakes on the car almost caused an accident where we would have rear ended the car in front of us. We were in a line of cars exiting a gravel parking lot traveling 5-10 mph. I pressed on the brake pedal as the car in front of us began to brake and our antilock brakes engaged and our car continued to travel forward towards the car in front of us. Luckily the car in front of us pulled out onto the road and we did not hit them. Similar issues have happened a handful of times since buying in March of 2025. I am an experienced driver and am familiar with how antilock brakes work and when they should engage, these instances have not been such cases. It seems it will only be a matter of time until this causes accidents. Another instance was when approaching a stop sign and hitting rumble strips in the road. This improper engaging of antilock brakes can very easily lead to car not stopping in time putting myself, my family, and other vehicles traveling on road at risk. I called the dealer and they said there is no issue and the antilock brakes are acting as they should. I have owned several cars over my lifetime and never had antilock brakes engage in these same instances. Upon investigation online, other drivers are experiencing similar issues and Hyundai is denying the issue. I have an appointment scheduled to get it looked at. There were no warnings, messages or other symptoms of the problem. How many people are going to have to report the same issue or how many people are going to have to be hurt before action is taken.

It doesn’t brake on uneven surfaces because of ABS sensor issue. This has been reported by many owners of 2023-2025 Hyundai Palisade.

When driving over railroad tracks or entry gates, the vehicle skids forward in an uncontrollable manner and vehicle is unable to stop when I press on the brake pedal. I have to put the car in “park” to stop the vehicle from rolling into oncoming traffic or colliding into the car in front of me. It appears to be an ABS problem.

My location of work has metal grates (to close a metal gate) at the entrance and exit. I’ve experienced many many times at the exit as I am breaking the breaks slipping. I’ve noticed it other times as I break while driving over uneven surfaces. I finally started digging because that’s not normal and it was brand new. It appears others have had the same issue. It doesn’t look like a recall has been issued, but definitely needs to be.

My car has had numerous issue. The first issue was with the front end collision warning system. I had a sensor warning come on twice saying it may not be in use, but then it falsely predicted a collision resulting in the car slamming on the brakes when nothing was there. I almost go rear-ended as a result. The dealer found that the radar system was completely broken and the sensor was facing to the side instead of the front. I bought the car brand new and there was no evidence of damage and it has never been explained how it got damaged. They replaced the system and that was resolved, but the sensors continue acting strange. It's now turning on the camera and telling me to check my surroundings when I'm stopped at a red light. There is nothing happening around me. The problem that is ongoing and has yet to be resolved is my brakes. It's an intermittent issue, but when I go over rough surfaces and hit the brakes I get a crunching/grinding noise that sounds like it's grinding rocks. This happens intermittently. The dealer was eventually able to replicate it and is saying it's the ABS system and that it's normal, but cannot do anything to repair it. However, it is not normal for ABS to come on going over a bump and it shouldn't sound like that. When this happens, the brakes don't seem to respond properly and as quickly as it should. I have not gotten any warning lights for the brake issue. It does put the parking brake on at times for no reason when I'm on a completely flat surface. The car was out of service for 21 days in a month and a half of owning it. I have a car that I don't feel safe in and I don't trust what it's going to do. It's problem after problem and corporate Hyundai doesn't want to do anything about it.

ABS on this vehicle is activating extremely aggressively while driving normally on regular street roads, The car shakes and slides and does not stop until the abs stops doing its thing the distance is very far compared to regular braking. This happened multiple times even when coming to a stop sign i found myself in the middle of the intersection and almost got hit definitely not safe whatsoever. The car is fairly new I'm just worried if its doing this often on regular roads what would it do when it snows. I saw online many people are having this very same issue and Hyundai should fix and do a recall on this matter.

2025 Palisade 1,700 miles. Brand new. When I approached a stop sign, there was a small pothole just before it. When braking towards this sign, the front left tire traveled over the pothole. The car then shook violently and braking appeared to have halted for a moment. A search online revealed many people having similar issues with potholes/uneven roads and the brakes not functioning during this shaking period. It is suspected this is an antilock brake system. The issue is that it is too sensitive. Needs a recall to retune the sensitivity of this.

Anytime driving on a bumpy road the brakes do not work correctly. When driving on a bumpy road I can feel the abs take over and I lose control over braking. Eventually I have to slam on the brakes or the computer does. Feels extremely unsafe since there are lots of brick roads around me. This has happened since I purchased the vehicle. I just researched this issue and it seems to be known a issue.

ABS kicks in with even the slightest bump. Had an incident a couple weeks ago where I went over a bump while leaving a store and the car almost did not stop before hitting oncoming traffic. Have had issues for 10 months with the car not accelerating properly or shifting properly. Have tried to drive in every mode (smart, sport, comfort) and nothing makes it better. I have had the vehicle to the shop 3 times. First 2 times said no problem. The third time stated my rear seal is leaking and transmission is leaking as well as 4x4 coupler needs replaced. I feel unsafe to drive in this vehicle with me and my children.

1.A rattle from the brake pedal (pulse, vibration) when braking on rough roads. 2. I am not feeling safe and for my family when the problem occurs. 3. The dealership service center (keating hyundai) stated " Could not recreate concern". 4. I purchased the vehicle new. I did not know if the dealership inspected before it was sold to me. 5. No, there is no warning lamps.

A Class action lawsuit has been filed for this Issue which Hyundai refuses to acknowledge our 2025 Palisade is having this issue on a regular basis.When it occurs the car becomes very difficult to stop we feel as do the lawyers in the class action in New York California and Ohio that this is a serious safety situation.We have had the car to the dealer and as previous owners have stated it is not acknowledged.

BRAKES WON'T WORK AS EXPECTED ON SLOPES/UNEVEN ROADS

pulling out of a dark parking lot at night, slowing to a stop at the stop sign. The road was bumpy and the abs kicked in for no reason, the brakes started juddering like crazy and the vehicle refused to stop. A loaded pickup was driving on the street and I was headed right in its path. I twice tried releasing the pedal and then reapplying it. the send time finally worked and the car came to a hard stop. All occupants were thrown forward. Seven year old in the back in a booster was complaining that the seat belt hurt her neck from the force of the stop.

When driving on uneven bumpy roads, I find my ABS gives a collision warning and engages the brakes. I’ve almost crashed once already and I don’t know what to do. Also when parking in tight spots, the ABS turns on due to collision warning and instantly activates the brakes, causing me to almost hit the cars in front or behind me.

While gently slowing/braking on warm and dry pavement, the vehicle proceeded over bumpy railroad tracks which seemingly activated the Anti-lock brake system and prohibited the vehicle from stopping effectively. I had to turn the vehicle away from the vehicle stopped ahead of me because my vehicle was not stopping in time and I narrowly avoiding an accident due to this situation. Due to this inappropriate activation of the ABS system, the vehicle took significantly longer to come to a stop, and once the ABS stopped pulsating, the vehicle abruptly stopped, however I already had to turn away from the vehicle in front of me to avoid rear-ending it. This is an exceptionally unsafe situation that will inevitable cause injury or death should someone be driving fast up to the car in front of them and not expect this to occur. This is an extremely unexpected vehicle equipment response on a perfectly dry road without any debris/etc to cause tire slippage. Having done some online research of the issue, this seems to be a frequent problem experienced by other Palisade owners however Hyundai is not doing anything about it. We will have the vehicle inspected when we bring it in for the recent recall that Hyundai identified regarding seatbelts (however no fix has been identified for it as of yet).

The ABS system has malfunctioned 4 times now while braking when going over an uneven surface- railroad tracks, uneven older roads in the area. The car will start shaking and lunge forward even with the brake all the way down to floor. This has caused me to almost hit 4 vehicles now. Yes, it is available for inspection. My safety, as well as others on the road are put at risk until this issue is fixed. The first dealership i took the vehicle to on 8/28/25 told me there were no issues and couldn't find anything wrong. The problem has since been replicated by the 2nd dealer who has looked at the vehicle 9/22/25. No warnings or messages popped up on the dash at any occurrence. Their response was that they called the manufacturer and explained the issue and they were told that this is normal and is intended to do this- continue to move towards other vehicles when brake is engaged. This does not seem to be correct and appears that there is even a class-action lawsuit for the same issue that was filed early 2025.

Happened to both my wife and I. As we attempt to stop the vehicle (for her at a stop sign, for me in a parking space), the car engages ABS and the car won't stop. Feels like you're trying to brake on ice. Very dangerous, I almost drove into a wall, she almost hit someone. We discovered that they have identified this as a problem and have offered no solution. I was told by the dealer "just tell your wife to go slow over speed bumps," and I corrected him that it seems to have nothing to do with speed bumps or not. And besides, that is not a correction that will make the car safe. Also discovered a class action lawsuit filed on May 9th 2025 for this exact issue. Many many driver reports online.

In multiple instances, the ABS is engaging on uneven surfaces when it should not. It occurs when pulling into my driveway and just happened this morning in the car drop off line. I was going no more than 5mph when the car in front of me stopped. I hit the brakes and the ABS engaged (along with the crash alarm) causing a skid. No accident occurred, but it was unsettling.

Anti-Lock braking system seems to malfunction on certain surfaces causing brakes to not work properly. Vehicle seems like it is not going to stop or stopping seems to take uncomfortably long.

Yesterday while driving over train tracks and braking for a red light in the distance, my brakes pulsed as if I were on ice and my car could not stop. The road conditions were dry, with the temperature outside around 75 degrees. I was driving 20mph max and nearly hit the car in front of us as my brakes would not engage. My daughter and I were both terrified. My car has around 13K miles on it. Since purchasing the car last October I frequently feel the ABS pulse while driving over bumps and braking at the same time. I do believe this could be replicated. I thought it was just a quirk of the car or a computer glitch that occurs when braking on rougher terrain. But yesterday while braking I was unable to stop, nearly causing a collision. Luckily the car ahead moved forward so we avoided a crash. There were no warning lamps or messages. I'm very scared to drive this car now. Please help.

Was driving down a side street going less than 20 mph, came to a stop sign and attempted to brake. The vehicle did not brake, and upon pressing the brake pedal harder the ABS system activated. Vehicle did not stop for the stop sign and ended up partially in the oncoming traffic lane.

When going over a bump/rough pavement at a slow speed and applying the brakes, there is a loud grinding noise and vibration on the brake pedal. The vehicle does not brake as fast as normal. This leads to extended braking distance. This has happened three times to us and haven’t been able to recreate. We are taking it in to the dealership to be evaluated.

I experienced a partial brake failure as I was attempting to leave a shopping center parking lot. The traffic light was red and there were no cars in front of me. I was traveling at approximately 10-15 mph. As I approached the light, I applied the brakes. The car started to shutter and the car kept moving forward. It’s as if the brakes were being applied off and on rapidly. The car kept moving forward. That’s when I applied a lot of pressure on the brake pedal to try and get the car to stop. It eventually stopped but by then, my vehicle was partly into the intersection. Had another vehicle been in front of me, my vehicle would certainly have made contact. There were no warning lights or other indications that the vehicle was having issues. The vehicle is brand new and has less than 800 miles on the odometer. The road surface was rather smooth; however, vehicles exiting the parking lot must drive over a drain grate. The braking issue happened as I drove over the grate. The grate is slightly lower than the paved road. Please see pictures. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership for evaluation. An internet search shows that other owners have experienced the same issue on 2023-2025 Palisades models.

The Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) is severely malfunctioning. When driving on stone roads, gravel, or uneven terrain, the brakes either fail to engage properly, over-react, or cause sudden grinding and shaking. This results in an unpredictable stopping distance. The issue creates an immediate risk of collision, particularly when braking on gravel, uneven surfaces, or potentially snow and ice. The vehicle sometimes requires a much longer stopping distance than expected, and at other times it locks up or nearly stops abruptly. This unpredictable braking response could cause rear-end accidents or loss of control. The issue has been reproduced multiple times during my daily commute on stone roads to my job. I have informed the dealer of the problem, though a complete confirmation or resolution has not yet been provided. The dealer has been made aware of the issue, but to my knowledge, the vehicle has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representative - only by the dealership themselves. No warning lamps or dashboard messages appear before or during the problem. The symptoms first became noticeable shortly after purchasing the vehicle in July 2025, and they continue to occur regularly whenever the vehicle is driven on stone or uneven terrain. The vehicle was just purchased July 19, 2025 and is currently in the shop at the dealership right now where they are telling me they cannot find an issue.

On multiple instances at speeds varying for 5mph to 25mph while braking on uneven roads, the ABS system kicked on. The brakes were vibrating and the brake pedal was stiff causing increased brake time. On one occasion it nearly caused a car crash.

The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving 10-15 MPH and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle continued to roll. The brake pedal was depressed to the floorboard, and the vehicle rolled into the intersection on several occasions. There was an abnormal grinding sound coming from the brakes. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was driven seven miles, but the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The dealer suggested that the mechanic take the vehicle home for the weekend to attempt to duplicate the failure. The contact declined the offer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 7,000.

Mileage: 7,000

ABS braking issue at low speeds on uneven roads. I was coming out of an alley, with fences on both sides. NOT driving fast. It's an alley. At the end of the alley they had one of those speed bump plastic things, not a speed bump, but something to protect COAX/cable being temporarily run. The alley goes to a T and the top of the T is a county road/2 way traffic that is like 60 MPH. Coming to the stop the front felt like it tripped over the bump, then the brake pedal did basically nothing. The ABS was like stuck on and no pumping or standing on the brake helped. I went out into the road and hoped the cross traffic had time to stop.

This vehicle on multiple occasions per week will have what my husband can only describe as the ABS incorrectly kick on. It happens in our driveway, rocky parking lots or streets that aren’t even. The vehicle shakes uncontrollably and the brakes can not be pressed when it happens. In the worst situation we ended up over a curb, luckily the curb seemed to help stop us before potentially hitting a post office. No lights come up on the dashboard and it isn’t easy to replicate as it happens randomly - usually at lower speeds - when coming into a stop. Our safety is put at risk every time we drive, not knowing if the issue will happen; and not being able to brake or remedy the issue. This is not a one time incident - this happens multiple times a week.

Car regularly malfunctions when braking on uneven surfaces. It does not fully brake and continues to move forward and shakes uncontrollably.

This car was just purchased brand new in April 2025. The ABS system is randomly malfunctioning. It causes my braking distance to change and I am concerned with the braking of my vehicle. The ABS system engages like I am slipping on ice or snow. It has happened 4 times on dry pavement during the summer. The dealer is unable to duplicate the issue and therefore cannot do any repairs to fix the issue.

When coming to a stop, car will rumble and brake pedal stops working. Seems like abs issue. Doesn’t happen often but happens enough to be unsafe if cannot be replicated to fix it

While applying the brakes on an uneven surface the brakes chattered/shuddered and shook the vehicle.

Braking on a low speeds when the road changes from smooth to slightly rough or bumpy the car acts as if ABS is kicking on. The stuttering brakes can be felt on the brake pedal and the steering shakes vigorously.

Any time I apply my brakes on an uneven road, gravel road, dirt road, etc. my antilock brakes enact, and it feels like my brakes grind and shake. The car doesn’t stop but almost shakes instead. This has been happening frequently and consistently when I need to brake on these types of roads.

The ABS engaged unnecessarily when I pressed the brake pedal, causing the vehicle to slide forward about 6-10 feet while I was driving at approximately 10 miles per hour. The same situation has occurred three times over the past seven months. When the ABS engages, it takes longer for the vehicle to slow down or stop. This poses a potential risk for everyday driving.

The vehicle shakes violently when applying the brakes over any bump or pothole at slow speeds. This also extends the stopping distance for the car. It has no warning lights. This is a brand new car with only 1200 miles. The problem was able to be confirmed by the dealer but no fix yet.

I am submitting this supplemental complaint regarding a repeated and dangerous brake failure in my 2025 Hyundai Palisade. This is a follow-up to my original complaint submitted in July 2025. On multiple occasions while driving at low speeds (around 5 mph), including turning into driveways or approaching intersections, the braking system failed to respond properly. The brake pedal felt like it lost connection — similar to how a bike slips when its brake fails. The vehicle kept moving forward even while I was applying the brake. This nearly caused accidents several times. I believe the automatic emergency braking system (AEB) also failed to engage. One incident caused me to hit a fence, resulting in a small dent. Hyundai is now refusing to repair the safety systems under warranty because of that dent — even though the dent was a result of the brake malfunction. I brought the vehicle to an authorized Hyundai service center, and they refused to cover the issue under warranty or provide a loaner vehicle, leaving me to drive a potentially dangerous car. I also want to note that I have seen multiple recent NHTSA complaints from other Hyundai Palisade owners describing similar brake issues. This suggests a wider pattern of brake failure, which must be urgently investigated before someone is seriously injured or worse. Hyundai has failed to properly investigate the issue or assist me in any meaningful way. This vehicle is still under warranty, and I am unable to safely use it while they delay responsibility.

The antilock system activates on dry pavement at low speeds, often when decelerating to stop before leaving a parking lot. Braking distance is increased from about 5 expected feet to 12-15 feet. This is scary as it could put the vehicle into cross traffic. It has happened about 1/month so far

Brake system failure. Driving on uneven surfaces (train tracks, pot holes, payment dips, rock, etc.) causes the brake system to fail to stop the vehicle. Causing a minimum of a 5-6 ft. stop. The car continues forward and the brakes fail to stop. The brakes feel like they are slipping during the slightest compression. The vehicle does not stop at all. The brakes grinding and hop to a stop eventually but only after several meters. There is automatic loss of brakes with the slightest uneven surfaces. No warning lights come on. Nothing is activated on the control system. No indicators show during the malfunction. Just terror and fear when attempting to break on anything but a brand new paved road. Car is currently in the manufacture dealership for inspection. Safety for my family and for other drivers cannot be maintained when I am unable to stop the vehicle if there is the slightest imperfection in the road.

While turning into a driveway at low speed (approximately 5 mph), I attempted to brake, but the brakes did not respond properly. The vehicle began to bump and resist braking, and failed to stop when expected, causing me to hit a fence. This model is equipped with automatic braking and collision avoidance systems that should have activated, but they failed to engage. This was a concerning failure for a brand-new vehicle equipped with advanced safety systems. Hyundai has not provided any clear answers or support. This appears to be a malfunction in the braking or electronic safety systems, and I believe it poses a serious risk to other drivers and pedestrians

While driving on the highway using the adaptive cruise control feature in my 2025 Hyundai Palisade, the vehicle suddenly and aggressively braked for no reason — even though there was no vehicle or obstruction ahead. This happened in normal highway traffic and caused vehicles behind me to brake suddenly, putting me at extreme risk of a rear-end collision. It was a very dangerous and terrifying experience that made me unable to use the cruise control feature since. For a brand-new vehicle with advanced safety features, this type of malfunction is completely unacceptable. Hyundai has not provided a proper explanation or resolution. This poses a serious ongoing safety risk to myself and others on the road and must be investigated.

ABS activates when pressing the break slightly bumpy or uneven pavement causing a longer then normal stopping distance.

[XXX] - The brakes on Hyundai Palisade make grinding sound when backing out of my driveway. [XXX] - The brakes on Hyundai Palisade make grinding sound when as I was turning into the bay at car wash. [XXX] - As I was approaching stop sign brakes made grinding sound, vehicle was not slowing down and I had to pump the brakes 3 times. The brake pedal went all the way to the floor. If another car would have been in front of me, I could have hit them from behind. [XXX] - The brakes on Hyundai Palisade make grinding sound as I approach stop sign. Dry Blacktop surface. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle. My husband verified this as well and has video of this. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

driving down gravel and uneven road when trying to break at stop sign. Car would not slow down or break as another car was coming down the road. At this time is when I pushed the break petal all the way down car was still not slowing down, the car started to do the death wobble, shake violently and vibrating, pulsing back and forth side to side up and down, steering wheel shaking. I had to let off the break and press the gas to hurry and speed up before the oncoming car hit me with my 2 small children inside. I have taken my car to the dealer ship and they told me there is no recalls for the 2025 Hyundai palisade my car has 5,036 miles on it bought it brand new off the lot, the service representative states they will look into it that it may take 24-48 hours to get back to me, but this may also be a suspension component but they will look into the incident. There were warnings signs and I take this route everyday every time I would break I could never fully press the break down as it would start shaking and make metal on metal noise and I would have to ease off the break petal.

Driving at slow speeds the car’s ABS system kicked in when we transitioned from the road to the parking lot. The parking lot was an even surface and only a slight bump to drive into it. This has happened twice already and the car has 360 miles on the odometer. So comforting! Such great quality !

Getting out of a parking lot onto the road with my family in the car. The car would not break in spite of hitting the breaks before making the turn onto the road, the oncoming vehicle stopped int time to prevent a T-Bone crash . After looking online , seems like a known issue with this model and the Hyundai will not acknowledge it. Please take action

ABS brakes engage at slow speeds and make it impossible to stop fro 3-5 Seconds. It's happened 2 times and we just leased the car, it's been less than 1 month in our possession and has already experienced this.

On [XXX] at [XXX} I was exiting [XXX] using the [XXX] exit. As I approached the end of the ramp at approximately 15 miles per hour, the Automatic Braking System engaged unexpectedly. There were no warning lights on the dashboard. The road conditions were dry. The vehicle was not stopping, and I came within inches of rear ending the vehicle in front of me at the red light. I contacted McGovern Hyundai in Wilmington, MA, and a service appointment is scheduled for 7/21. The vehicle has approximately 5,000 miles.

While pulling into a parking spot, i was applying my breaks and the abs kicked in when we did a bump nearly causing us to run into the concrete pylon. This is not the first time it has happened but the worst its done this

ABS not working property. Breaks will skip and pulse when breaking at low speeds on uneven roads or small bumps resulting in longer distance to break. Hyundai service states no known issue with 2025 ABS and states I would have to pay to have it looked at. I bought it in March 2025 and issue started one week ago.

On June 30th, I turn right, into a parking lot. I take an immediate left and pull up to a stop sign at the end of a fast food driveway. There is about a 30 ft distance between turning right off of the main road and stopping at the stop sign. While attempting to brake, they lock up and skid. I have a scared foster child in the car. I was unable to brake, only using my right foot. I have to apply pressure to finally be able to get it to stop, with my left foot as well. While doing this, I hit my left, big toenail on the brake pedal and rip half of it off. Upon a quick Google search, looking for issues with the brakes, I discover that there is a current lawsuit for 2023-2025 Palisade models for ABS and traction control issues. Clearly this is a reoccurring issue. I take my brand new car into the Hyundai service department to have a look at the brakes. They see nothing wrong.

Slow speed over bumpy area, when i tried to gently stop it felt like abs kicked in and I couldnt brake, car wasnt stopping and was scared I was going to hit the car in front of me. Only managed to stop cause i hit the brakes really hard and then it shortstopped.

I can come to a complete stop and then will notice the car start to inch forward with foot still on brake which then, I’ll push foot down as far as it’ll go to stop car again. I’ll brake, stop car, put it into park and the entire car will jerk forward. I’m nervous this is going to cause an accident. The car is 2025 with ~600 miles. This is a daily issue since purchase. Appointment scheduled with dealership but they never seem to find anything.

Unknown. In a span of 15 minutes, I encountered 3 events in traffic where accidents could've occurred. I was in the middle turning lane, completely stopped. I tried to accelerate and start left turn when the car shut down, all lights on dashboard lit up. There's an alert saying push P (park) and restart engine. It took 2 or 3 times of trying to get the car to start. Once started the engine and oil lights came on. They went off soon after. Luckily, the car stopped before the turn started or there may have been an accident. I continue my drive down the street, come to an intersection where I slowly brake, the front passenger tire hit a pothole and the car slid into intersection (my foot still on the brake) instead of coming to a compete stop before the intersection. Again, accident avoided only because the oncoming traffic passed before car slid forward. Lastly, trying to get home safely and shaken badly, I come to another intersection. I'm the first car with 4 cars behind me. I'm completely stopped at a red light. The light turns green, I attempt to accelerate to move through light and the car shuts down again. All lights on dashboard light up, the emergency brake is automatically engaged and I spend the light cycle trying to get the car to restart. I had to release the emergency parking brake, put car in park, try to push start button. Last steps repeated more than once. Thank goodness the cars behind me were paying attention and didn't drive based on the light being green. There was no warning for any of these events. It was extremely scary and I don't trust the car to drive it further. I'm having it towed to the dealership for inspection. This is a 2025 with 636 miles on it and about 8 incidents regarding safety since purchased less than 2 months ago.

1) Transmission sticks and doesn't shift at higher speeds, had dealer look at could not replicate. I have had many instances of this happening. Safety issue is this usually happens when accelerating to get on freeway or passing someone and then I need to back off gas pedal to get it to change gears 2) Anti collision warning goes on for no reason - has not engaged brakes. Safety issue is both times I hit the brakes thinking i was going to hit something but there was nothing in front of me.- will talk with dealer service manager this week 3) Anti lock brakes engaged at a normal stop - this could have caused an accident. I was able to stop car going into intersection by slamming breaks on - this has happened twice. Huge safety issue as I was entering a intersection and had trouble stopping the car. will talk with dealer service manager this week

The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that while driving at 5 MPH from making a right turn and attempting to stop the vehicle for a traffic light, with the brake pedal depressed all the way to the floorboard, and the vehicle failed to stop. As a result, the vehicle crashed into the rear of the vehicle in front before coming to a complete stop. The air bags did not deploy. No warning lights were illuminated. A police report was not filed, and no injuries were reported. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was unknown.

At mid to low speeds when pressing the brakes, I can feel excessive shaking and vibration when going over uneven roads. I’m located in Queens, New York so you can imagine the roads aren’t the smoothest. However not speaking of pot holes or anything like that just any uneven surface bump. It causes the brakes to feel like ABS kicking on but no abs lights or anything just the feeling. I only feel it on low to mid speeds probably because faster speeds usually indicate highway driving and it’s usually pretty smooth when going those speeds.

When applying normal braking at 20 mph, the car began to shutter and slid approximately 20 feet past where it should have stopped. It felt like the ABS was engaging.

My 25 Pallisade front end/front wheels shake violently when braking and hitting a bump at the same time. It shakes so hard my steering wheel shakes also. It can happen when braking hard, soft, small bump, big bump, it doesn’t seem to matter. It is brand new and I took it into the dealership when there was about 1500 miles on it. They didn’t find anything wrong.

I was traveling in a parking lot, no more than 3mph and went to stop at the stop sign and my brakes locked up and I couldn't come to a complete stop for several feet. The car skid a few times before being able to fully stop. This was extremely scary, especially having a child in the car with me. Not only that, due to the car not stopping with only using my right foot, I went to also use my left foot to apply more pressure to the brake pedal, I ripped off a large portion of my toenail on my big, left toe. After doing a quick Google search, one of the first things that pops up is a class action lawsuit for this exact reason, that was established on May 9th of this year for 2023-2025 models. I have contacted the dealership and the manufacturer. This is an extremely concerning issue.

On bumpy road, while at low speeds, the steering shakes violently and the brake does not engage. I have to keep hitting the brake multiple times for the car to stop.

When driving at a low rate of speed to stop, when you hit a bump or uneven road, the brakes lock up, the vehicle will lurch, and will not stop. This has happened several times on pavement, gravel roads, and dirt roads. I have had to steer off the road to keep from going into oncoming traffic. It has also caused me to go through stop signs. I am terrified to drive this vehicle in fear of being in an accident

Brand new car came with warped rotors and rattling noise unresolved. Major safety issue due to brake failure. A few times braking due to red light, upon braking the car would stutter stop and at times not start stopping until brake pedal fully stepped on, had a few near accidents. At a McDonalds and Wendy’s drive through, foot on brakes but car would still move forward even though was at a complete stop(car moved forward from a complete stop even though foot is still stepping on brake pedal). Have heard rattling on right side of car when braking, unknown cause, mentioned it but dealership completely ignored it due to cannot replicate(happens once in a while), was not documented on invoice, planning to bring into dealership and demanding a full panel diagnostic. Major safety concern because I have children and what if brakes fail at a busy intersection.

There have been several instances--at least a dozen--where I will apply the brakes over a bump, pothole, or steep driveway and the car will skid. It's exactly how it feels when ABS activates when a car brakes on an icy road. The brake will disengage then re-engage, delaying the overall stop time. The skid feeling when the brake releases is unnerving and, again, delays the stopping time. Luckily I have not been close enough to the car in front of me and no collisions have occurred. It has happened often enough that I can often anticipate when it will occur (like over a bump), and I allow myself more time to brake. However, one can't predict when you need an emergency stop and it's scary to think my car could possibly not stop in time. I will issue a complaint to the dealer, as well. This issue has not been inspected by anyone yet but I plan to have our dealer look at it. No warning lights on the dash have come on during any of the times the skidding has occurred.

Overly sensitive and dangerous abs system when in gravel or uneven surfaces the abs will trigger and basically u lose all stopping power and your steering wheel vibrates I've almost hit something head on and ran through an intersection because of this

ABS kicked in at a stop sign going 15 mph. Car jerked forward into an intersection and did not stop quickly. This problem has occurred since this incident.

I have a 2025 Hyundai Palisade with ABS issue that has occurred at least 3 times since first occurrence at 1700 miles while on an incline turning right rode on rumble strip at about 15 to 20mph. The abs activated no abs light on dash, ride became extremely bumping and car will not stop at the light before the stop light. The was not able to steer left or right. This situation occurred two more times at decline and incline while turning at light. The car felt extremely unsafe when this event occurred.

I was driving on a road that was very rough with many bumps and the car (well in front of me) began to slow down to avoid a big pot hole, I applied my brakes to slow down before I got close to that car. Because the road was rough, as many others have filed the same complaint now, my Palisade engaged the ABS and the car coasted much farther than it shoudl have with the amount of brake pressure I was applying to stop before I collided with the vehicle slowing in front of me. The ABS prevented me from stopping before I almost hit the car who at that point had stopped in front of me, the forward collision warning came on and the emergency braking applied violently which almost caused a wreck behind me as well becuase the person behind me was not prepared to me to come to a complete abrupt halt. The palisade stopped itself after the ABS wouldn't let me stop soon enough to avoid a collision in front of me - almost causing a wreck behind me. With a simple google search, this ABS engaging on rough roads is a major common problem that Hyundai needs to address before we're all paying for wrecks that we didn't cause due to driver neglience but rather the functionality of the vehicle is causing the safety problem. I immediately called my dealership and have an appt for them to look at it early next week. I'm frightened this will cause me or my wife and kids to be in a wreck that could have been prevented.

When I drive over small pothole with low speed up to 15mph my abs activated

I have had issues with the brakes on my brand new 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The first incident was in a parking lot. I was driving up to the exit of the parking lot, driving very slow. When I pushed on the brakes, the brake pedal shook, the car lurched forward and did not stop as it should. From what I have read online, this seems like an ABS system failure. Similar things have also happened on bumpy street coming up to a stop sign driving at slow speeds. Luckily, I have been able to stop before going into an intersection. This is very scary when it happens and especially when my family is in the car. I am driving slow but if I am unable to stop and go into an intersection, I will cause an accident. I took the car to the dealership this morning. They inspected it and were unable to recreate it. They said they cannot do anything until the issue can be replicated. We bought this car because of its safety rating but driving around with brakes that are not reliable is definitely a safety issue.

As seen on many complaints online, the ABS system is failing when coming to a stop on dry roads. If you hit the slightest bump it will lung forward and you are unable to stop the car for 15-20 feet. This has happened numerous times almost causing an accident with my family. My fiancé was driving the kids to school and she hit the brakes at a stop light and she was unable to stop until she was in the intersection. Luckily, the cars coming were able to avoid her. She is petrified to drive this car. Hyundai has a case open and since they can't replicate it at the dealership, they send me my car back. It has been at the dealership twice for this issue and it has happened again. There are no options for me at this point other than to drive an unsafe car.

I was driving not even 5 miles per hour because I was coming to a turn I was making there was bumps in the road I ran over and lost control of the car no steering at all I couldn't stop it felt like I had a blow out and then I stomped on the brake hard and it stopped before it hit the curb with no codes or anything to tell Me what happened

When traveling slowly and braking, if you hit a bump the car steering begins to shake wildly that makes you feel you will lose control. You have to bump the brakes to make it stop. Seems like the anti lock brakes kick in when it shouldn’t and because it is the front tires make the car violently shake. Happens intermittently and difficult to reproduce at will. Has happened numerous times. Brought to dealership and because it can’t be reproduced at will they will not investigate the issue. Seems to be only a matter of time this will cause an accident.

On three separate occasions while driving in moderate stop-and-go traffic, I experienced an intermittent issue with my braking system. I was unable to fully depress the brake pedal. In some instances, the pedal felt like it was grinding as I pressed it down. The grinding sound was similar to what you might hear when there’s surface rust on the brakes in the morning, but it was coming from the brake pedal. I had been driving for a while and it hadn’t rained in days. I also felt feedback in the pedal during these instances, even though the issue did not appear to be related to the brake pads or rotors. This reduced my ability to brake effectively, and although I have not been involved in a crash, the safety of myself and those around me on the road was potentially in jeapordy. The issue is sporadic and does not trigger any dashboard warning lights.

I'm writing to report a safety issue with my 2025 Palisade Calligraphy Knight Edition. The other day, I was driving in town on a rough road, going under 25 miles per hour, when I came to a stop sign. I pressed on the brakes, but the car wouldn't stop completely. It kept moving forward, shuddering, and the ABS wouldn't stop. It felt like the brakes were not engaging properly, and the ABS was malfunctioning. It did finally stop on its own, but it was really scary. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? I believe the braking system, and potentially the ABS, malfunctioned. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? My safety and the safety of others were put at risk because the vehicle did not stop as expected, and I had limited control over the vehicle's movement. This could have resulted in a collision. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No, the problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. This is the first time it has happened. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No, the vehicle and its components have not been inspected by anyone regarding this issue. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. I'm worried that this could happen again, and I want to make sure that other drivers are aware of this potential problem. I've only had my Palisade for less than 100 miles, so I'm hoping this is an isolated incident.
