ABS system engages on graveled inclines and potholes, overly sensitive. Cannot stop in time and had times where almost hit car in front. Took to dealership and they state no issues. ABS should not be this sensitive where it engages in normal everyday driving.
My 2023 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy AWD engages the anti-lock braking system when I go over small bumps sometimes. It has happened at least twice in the last 24 hours and almost caused an accident because it resulted in a longer than expected braking time and distance. I have scheduled an appointment, but am unable to be seen for another two weeks so the dealer has not inspected it yet. There are no warnings, only shaking from the ABS and clearly reduced braking power.
I was going 5 mph, hit a small bump in road and the abs brakes kicked in and the car wouldn-??t. I almost hit the car in front of me. Emergency system kicked in and luckily stopped the vehicle.
I was just turning right from a stoplight into a store parking lot when I lost power steering & my brakes were -??difficult-?? to push down. I barely got it out of the way of traffic and I turned the car off, got out, opened and closed my door, and got back in and it started back up and drove to the parking spot like nothing had happened. Sensors reset to 0. It happened again 2 stops away while in a drive through. I did the same thing and it started back up ok. It would do this every 2-3 days for 2 weeks. Finally it did it one day, 5-6 times. The day I called the dealership & said that I was afraid my 2023 Palisade was going to literally get me killed on the highway was when the manager was able to get me a loaner vehicle to drive. It-??s been in the dealership for over a week. I saw the recall about the loss of power brake assist online and thought this may pertain to my Palisade.
Brakes failed. Brake pedal went to floor unable to stop. First the dealership said it was the ABS sensor failed. after they replaced the abs sensor they then determined the master brake cylinder piston ruptured causing the fault in the ABS. The repair has been made and brakes a working fine now.. However this failure could of resulted in q catastrophic accident The contact stated that repairs were made on the vehicle.

The engine shut off suddenly while driving 3x times in 17 days of ownership, brand new car. It happened leaving the highway (decreasing speed around 40-55mph) and the brake doesn't work properly when it happens (makes it hard to break and then suddenly brake at once). I was happy no one was in front of me for 3x and I could stop safely without hurting anyone. No warning or indicator light showed before problem happen, and even after. The car is currently at dealer for inspection, have a video of the dash when it happens (lights flashing and emergency beeping), dealer didn't took this serious, opened a safety complain at Hyundai case #20305592 Attached photo of dashboard with the message and lights after last stop This is a SERIOUS problem that could lead to a fatality soon or later, hope is only with me that this is happening.
