In north Attleboro, on a sunny dry day in the 70s. Coming to a stop sign at the bottom of a 20ish degree decline. As I approached the stop sign the brakes at around 10mph started to lock. It felt like ABS kicking in on ice. I skidded past the stop sign. There was nothing I could do to stop it. Luckily no one was in front of me, …

It felt like ABS kicking in on ice. I skidded past the stop sign. There was nothing I could do to stop it. Luckily no one was in front of me, I would have hit them.

While driving at low speeds, turning, and braking simultaneously causes the brakes to alternately pulse and the steering wheel to shake left and right violently. It only stops when the brake pedal is released and the car is driving straight. Difficult to replicate but has happened multiple times

A lot of the time I go to press on my brakes, my vehicle skids as if I'm sliding on ice but we are in dead of summer. It makes a crunchy noise almost and the pedal vibrates. It's a 2024 and has less than 10,000 miles and has been doing it since I got the vehicle with only 500 miles. It has skid to the point that if there is a ve…

A lot of the time I go to press on my brakes, my vehicle skids as if I'm sliding on ice but we are in dead of summer. It makes a crunchy noise almost and the pedal vibrates. It's a 2024 and has less than 10,000 miles and has been doing it since I got the vehicle with only 500 miles. It has skid to the point that if there is a vehicle in front of me it can cause an accident because the vehicle does not come to a complete stop. I, now try to stop way before I'm supposed to and keep a further distance because I'm afraid to crash, and I drive on the bypass daily. There are no warning lights, I mentioned it to the person who sold it and he said there were no recalls and now he no longer works for the dealership.

The brakes failed to operate properly when braking from at a slow speed and driving over a bumpy road. The entire car started shaking and the brakes took longer to respond than normal. Had someone been in front of me I would have crashed. There are currently two palisades at my dealer right now with the same complaint / issue. The car is currently with the dealer but they have stated that they do not know how to fix the issue. There were no warning indicators of any kind. The car shook violently and the brakes didn’t respond.

While approaching an intersection to make a right-hand turn at approximately 5 mph, I lightly applied the brakes. The entire car shook, and instead of slowing down, it continued to lurch forward. The road conditions were dry but slightly bumpy. The car exhibits the same behavior on uneven surfaces, such as in an alley with a slightly uneven road. The ABS system engages unnecessarily, increasing the stopping distance. On several occasions, this issue has nearly caused a collision with the vehicle in front due to the car’s inability to slow down properly and its tendency to lurch forward into intersections.

My husband was driving down the highway when he heard a loud boom! He then heard some wind. He pulled over to the side only to discover that the sunroof had exploded. Then while on his way to the dealership he could hear it crumbling more.

When braking on an uneven surface, the anti-lock braking system will sometimes kick in, causing the car to shake and not deliver the stopping power the driver expects.

When braking on an uneven surface, the anti-lock braking system will sometimes kick in, causing the car to shake and not deliver the stopping power the driver expects. I've nearly rear ended multiple people and have glided out into intersections before. Typically happens when leaving parking lots, coming to 4 way stops, or pulling into driveways. I've also had the emergency braking system kick in on a few occasions while this happened. You lose all ability to maneuver the vehicle when this happens. I've had the dealership look at this multiple times only to tell me that it's my driving habits causing the ABS to initiate. A simple search online shows that lots of 2024 Palisade owners are reporting similar issues. I do not believe Hyundai understands how to fix this issue yet.
