While driving at slow speed I took my foot off the gas and applied pressure to the brake pedal. The brakes did not work properly; the brakes engaged and disengaged multiple times and the car continued to lurch forward almost resulting in a collision. This is a critical failure of the braking system and is extremely unsafe. In this scenario, I could have hit the car in front of me. Had I been approaching an intersection, I could have been in a severe collision. I brought the car to the dealership and they could not replicate the issue. They inspected the vehicle and did not provide any information on what could have caused the issue. No component was identified as the cause of the problem. No warning lamps were on prior to or after the incident. During the incident, I was not looking at my dashboard; I was trying to not hit the vehicle in front of me. The car has under 20,000 miles and has been driven for just over a year.
When moving over bumpy ground at slow speeds - the brakes don-??t latch on properly. The entire vehicle shakes and continues to move forward in a bumpy fashion. Never happened to me in any other car and I drive the same routes everyday. Many people are complaining about it online for the Palisade - and it seems like Hyundai has confirmed the issue but isn-??t fixing it or issuing a recall. Please take action!
Was turning right going down hill the road was slightly bumpy. During the turn it felt like the ABS system kicked in and the car was not slowing down. Also felt like I did not have any control of the vehicle.
When pressing the brake pedal over uneven pavement (at low speeds of less than 10 mph) the brake pedal shuddered so harshly I thought I wouldn't be able to stop. The first time this occurred, I was driving over a manhole cover and braking as I was behind a school bus slowing to a stop at a stop sign - I thought I was going to collide with the bus. The second time occurred when turning into a parking lot which was uneven (where the parking lot met the sidewalk). This seems like a significant safety hazard that could cause crashes, injuries and fatalities. Please look into this.
The Hyundai Palisade 2023 faces a braking issue when going over an uneven or rough patch on the road. When the brake is depressed, the vehicle does not slow down. The brake vibrates and does not fully engage. Only when pressing the brake very strongly does it engage and bring the vehicle to a stop. Faced this issue a few times with no vehicles in front of time. Once as I was pulling out of a parking lot, I had the same issue and had cars ahead of me. I struggled to bring my car to a halt to avoid colliding with the vehicle in front of me. This is quite dangerous and should be addressed by Hyundai. Upon talking to multiple Palisade owners, they have all consistently faced the same issue. Some of my friends in India say they-??ve faced the same issue on smaller size Hyundai SUVs that they own there.
Was in traffic on a summer dry day when I went to stop again at a speed under 15 and brakes locked up the steering wheel starting to shake and brakes were pulsating up and down I had to really push down hard and all the way on the brakes and it finally stopped the car. I almost rear ended the car infront of me no lights came on the dash no warning noises
After hitting any size bump my car does not stop, the car starts shaking, and I have to slam on the brake in order to stop. This has happened multiple times, the most recent caused me to almost run a red light and cause and accident. I am reaching out to the dealer today. The car did not show any warning lights on the dashboard.
Under slow speeds and while applying brakes over bumps, the breaks become unresponsive. The car does not react to pushing the brakes pedal. It almost feels like ABS is kicking in but the car does not slow down.
I was driving over train tracks at about 5 mph when my car wouldn-??t brake. I was jamming down on the pedal and that eventually triggered a really aggressive ABS and emergency braking. I came millimeters away from hitting the car in front of me and the whole time it felt like I had zero control of the car and the car just had a mind of its own. Based on what I-??ve read online I believe this is a known issue that Hyundai is ignoring.
I was slowing down approaching an intersection with cars already at a full stop up ahead. I was braking to slow down in preparation to stop. As I got closer, I drove over railroad tracks and felt the brake pedal begin to vibrate like the automatic emergency braking system kicked in. With my foot still on the brake, the car continued forward without any additional decrease in speed. I pushed my foot down as hard as I could and the car stopped inches from the car in front of me. I-??m not sure if me pressing on the brake more even did anything or if some other collision avoidance system in the car stopped it before colliding with the car in front of me. There was beeping and the display switched to show cameras in front of the car, which happens when getting close to something while parking, etc. Luckily I was slowing and not at a high rate of speed. If I had hit the car ahead of me, there would have been damage but not major. What if I was going faster when this occurred" Or if I was braking for a person or bike" Or if it was collision avoidance that actually stopped the car here but I was the first car stopping in the intersection and couldn-??t stop.
I purchased my vehicle from South Point Hyundai in Austin, Texas on [XXX], 2022. Almost immediately after purchase, I began having trouble with the vehicle-??s braking system. In essence, the vehicle seems to inappropriately activate its ABS while braking over uneven surfaces (think-parking lots, speed bumps) in dry conditions. I have dashcam videos of at least three examples of this happening (from Aug -??22 through May -??24). I took the vehicle to the dealer for repairs that included the braking issue on or about [XXX], 2022, but the dealer claimed they were unable to diagnose and address the braking problem. There were no dash indicators or DTCs that were available. This problem continued to exhibit itself and was a matter of concern to our family, until the braking system-??s failure caused a collision with a parking garage access gate arm on [XXX] 2024. This incident has created distress, and substantially impairs my family-??s willingness to use the vehicle due to a now established safety hazard. We do not wish to put others in danger for a mechanical failure that we were told was non-existent when we tried to get it fixed in December of 2022. We have also been put in a tough situation because we do not have access to an additional vehicle for use while the problem is diagnosed at the dealer.

My brakes stop working anytime I drive over lose gravel and brake or over speed bumps. It will vibrate. And skid. I have taken it in 5 times and they said it-??s normal I owned 5 cars and none of them are like this.
While driving intermittently, the brake pedal becomes hard and does not allow for eased braking. The car continues to roll forward and appears unable to stop. After pumping and applying hard pressure, finally, the brake pedal depresses fully and forces a hard and immediate stop. The entire car seems to shake during the event. This has occurred approximately 5-8 different times at different speeds, all below 25 mph, such as in a parking lot and while exiting the freeway. There have been no lights or warning indications before, during, or after. The entire car shakes violently when the brake pedal is gently pressed. The car almost continued into an intersection of heavy traffic before stopping. The first and only appointment has just been made with the dealer for inspection tomorrow, April 16, 2024. No maintenance has been performed since the original purchase, and no other incidents have occurred with the vehicle.
When traveling at a modest rate of speed, if I apply the brakes going over any slightly uneven terrain the ABS triggers randomly and makes braking really difficult. It takes longer to stop and much harder pressure. I have reported this issue to the dealer but per usual they "cannot duplicate ", however it happens very often and my dash cam has caught it.
The contact owns a 2023 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that while depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle continued to surge forward. The contact stated that the failure had occurred on several occasions while at a stop light. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 16,000.
My 2023 Hyundai Palisade has experienced loss of braking/power braking at least three times (two of which almost resulted in a collision). It is not within recall 23V415000. After the first failure, the service center did the recommended repairs (replace faulty brake booster) of that recall. The brakes failed again shortly after. The service center also confirmed they felt the brakes go soft when they were repairing it a second time. This time they replaced the brake master cylinder assembly, pin assembly, etc. The brakes failed another time after this. We took it back to the dealership, where it has been since. We have lost all faith in the brakes of this car, and this presents a major safety concern to Palisade drivers and those on the road.
