I live in an area that gets snow (Flagstaff, AZ), this morning 3 times the brakes locked up on me going at low speed and almost hit 2 cars because once they lock, the brakes don't let up until the car comes to a complete stop. This is a known issue with this model but Hyundai has done nothing to address it (per google). I am scared to drive the car in any weather conditions and that is what I bought it for!!

Brake or ABS failure when driving at a moderate speed between 10 to 20 mph over an uneven ground, slightly bumpy road, which makes the car shake and lurch forward while brake pedal becomes unavailable to press/hit . This has happened around 6 times within the last 10 months since the purchase, twice over a railroad crossing, and four times when passing over a sliding parking lot gate's track, dealer conducted a diagnosis but unable to replicate the issue, where they had driven the car not more than 5 miles within the limits of their parking lot. I opened a case with Hyundai Manufacturer America regarding the issue but they told me the same thing as the dealership did that they can't help me further because they couldn't replicate the issue.
I have a 2024 Palisade Limited AWD with 3000 miles. When breaking at slower speeds on rough or uneven surfaces the brakes severely vibrate and the vehicle will not stop properly causing possible severe injuries or crash. This happened on multiple occasions but most recently today.
Driving slowly in a parking lot, went over a speed bump and the car suddenly started to shake/rumble and the brakes did not work. Almost hit the car infront of me. Very forcibly, applied brakes again which did stop the car. Just did a Google search and others have reported same issue and one suggested to file this complaint …

Driving slowly in a parking lot, went over a speed bump and the car suddenly started to shake/rumble and the brakes did not work. Almost hit the car infront of me. Very forcibly, applied brakes again which did stop the car. Just did a Google search and others have reported same issue and one suggested to file this complaint with you as apparently Hyundai is doing nothing about it. Car has just over 3000 miles on it and we have had no other issues. We have not brought it to service as it has just happened today. No warning lights came on. This is copied from a post 5 months ago: Hyundai corporate has told me that, upon testing other Palisades, they have discovered that this happens in ALL 2024 Palisades". I do not think this is a safe "idiosycrysity" that all Palidades should have.
Since around the 1000-mile mark, I have been having an issue sporadically we are when I am breaking and going over either a pothole, an entrance to a driveway, railroad tracks, or in general slowing down toward a stop sign going under approximately 15 miles an hour the entire car loses control and starts shaking. The ABS system …

Since around the 1000-mile mark, I have been having an issue sporadically we are when I am breaking and going over either a pothole, an entrance to a driveway, railroad tracks, or in general slowing down toward a stop sign going under approximately 15 miles an hour the entire car loses control and starts shaking. The ABS system or something similar is kicking in at the wrong times and it is perilous and can cause an accident as you have no control over the braking anymore for a few seconds. The entire car shakes in the front end, including feeling it through the brake pedal as well as the steering wheel. I have brought the vehicle many times to my local Hyundai dealership and have been told there is no issue and everything is operating according to how it should when I took the head of their maintenance shop out for a ride and replicated the issue I was told that it is operating normally and despite many people having the same issue online he was told by their back and " Tech line team" to say this is operating normally. Hyundai needs to be held accountable for these dangerous cars as it is only a matter of time before someone loses their life when they cannot control their vehicles braking power during such an incident.

Issue: ABS Brakes Safety Issue: Almost crashed into gas station Manufacturer Contacted - Not Yet. No Warning lights or errors on dash. Incident: Unexpected ABS Activation and Reduced Braking Effectiveness Date: October 28, 2024 Time: 5:30 PM CST Location: Pelham, AL Weather: Sunny and Dry Description: On several occasions, I have experienced unexpected pulsating of the ABS brakes while driving over rough, paved roads at speeds below 15 mph. In previous instances, this occurred while approaching a red light or stop sign, and I was able to stop safely. However, today, while pulling into a parking space at a Chevron Gas Station in Pelham, AL, I encountered a similar issue. The pavement was dry, uneven, and rough. Despite traveling at only 10 mph, I was unable to stop effectively within the parking space. The vehicle did not slow down as expected, and I felt as though the rear brakes were solely responsible for bringing the vehicle to a stop at the last moment. Increasing pressure on the brake pedal had minimal effect on slowing or stopping the vehicle. I have been driving for over 37 years and am very familiar with the sensation of ABS brakes activating in emergency situations. In this instance, the road was dry, and the braking was very gradual, so there was no apparent reason for the ABS to engage. This issue has only been observed on dry, rough, paved roads. Notably, the ABS pulsation continued even after transitioning from the rough pavement to a smooth surface.

WHEN BRAKING ON BUMPY ROAD THE BRAKES DO NOT STOP THE CAR AND CAR BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND IT STOPS ABRUPTLY AFTER MOVING SEVERAL FEET. CAR IS AT RISK OF HITTING A PEDESTRIAN CROSSING IN FRONT OF CAR. DEALER REPLACED ONE STRUT THE BELIEVED WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. PROBLEM PERSISTED AND DEALER SAID THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE SO THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE 2ND STRUT. SEEMS LIKE THE SOLUTION IS REPLACING THE STRUT BUT DEALER WILL NOT REPLACE AT NO COST. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. NOT SURE IF THE STRUT IS THE SOLUTION OR IF ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM IS FAULTY.

for no reason, when driving at less than 20 MPH and starting to brake, the brake system will fail to stop the vehicle. Feels like the ABS model has gone nuts modulating, but even with the brake pedal fully pressed, you can only hope the vehicle will stop prior to hitting something or being hit. It does not matter the road cond…

for no reason, when driving at less than 20 MPH and starting to brake, the brake system will fail to stop the vehicle. Feels like the ABS model has gone nuts modulating, but even with the brake pedal fully pressed, you can only hope the vehicle will stop prior to hitting something or being hit. It does not matter the road conditions, as my issues have always been on smooth roads. There is no indication as when this problem will happen, and no fault indicators are present. After each incident, the vehicle brake system will function normally until the next incident occurs. This has happened on multiple occassions.
