ABS activating for no reason while braking in perfect driving conditions and not allowing the vehicle to come to a stop as needed. The first incident caused me to slide through a stop sign narrowly avoiding other traffic, and the second incident almost caused me to rear end the vehicle in front on me. This is apparently a known issue with Hyundai and needs to be addressed ASAP!
Dealership made several repairs at no cost to me that minimized the issue but issue still present. Car is leased. There were NO weights on rear tires, weights had to be installed. Brakes feel as if being pushed upward when driving over rough road surface. Gas pedal vibrating when driving over rough surface. And feels as if bottom of vehicle or something under is dragging. Please help - I have 3 children one of whom is in wheelchair. Safety is a priority. Thank you.
I was leaving my neighborhood approaching a stop sign going 15-20 mph and started to apply the brakes. It was a little bumpy and maybe very light gravel. (Clear weather, dry road) The car suddenly and unusually applied the brakes repeatedly (I felt it through the pedal). It actually took the car longer to stop than normally it would have (I drive this route every day). It defintely was unusual, caught me off guard, and could have been worse as I ultimately stopped much closer than normal to a 45 mile an hour 2 lane road. My husband was with me in the car, and he mentioned he recalled a similar experience several months ago.
Hyundai Service for Malfunction 8-10-24 Took New 2024 Palisade to Hallmark Hyundai Service Dept. for issue with handling On 4 different occasions while driving out of a parking garage at Centennial Medical Center in Nashville TN, going approximately 5 MPH or so, the front wheels started moving back and forth very violently. Steering wheel shaking with violent wheel movement. I held the steering wheel Firmly and slammed the brakes. Shaking stopped. This happened on 3 different occasions. The forth occasion happened while pulling into a parking area at Centennial Park, Nashville TN. I hit a small pot hole and the same activity occurred while driving 10-15MPH. I held the steering wheel Firmly and Firmly applied the brakes to make it stop the shaking. Reported the incident to Hallmark Hyundai on 8-7-24. Nicole set me an appointment for 8-10-24 at 8am for immediate inspection and to make sure everything was still -??tight-??. After meeting with the technician, her immediate comment was that this is called a -??Death Wobble-??. They ran a full diagnostic and found no codes. They want me to bring the vehicle back and keep it and perform tests and more inspection for this may be the first report of such dangerous activity. They think it could be the driving assist system, abs, suspension issues, etc."?" The technician stated that the -??Death Wobble-?? happened to her once while traveling at a speed of 60MPH. I asked if this could happen at any traveling speed, the answer was YES!!!!
When braking lightly between 10-20MPH, the ABS will activate if I hit a small bump or pothole. Something as simple as pulling into my driveway will cause the ABS to activate. On one occasion, I was driving through a gas station parking lot, lightly pressed on the brakes to slow down over a rough patch of concrete and the ABS came on. The car behaved as though I was braking on ice. This is incredibly dangerous and Hyundai has been unable to diagnose the issue and unwilling to present any viable options.

When driving over slightly uneven terrain the brakes malfunction and don't work. I start feeling a vibrating and rattling and the car just doesn't stop when braking. There are many reports of this issue online. Yesterday I was involved in an accident because of this and that I god I didn't hit a person only a car and no one was seriously injured
I was approaching a stop sign at low speed. Road was a bit gravely and when I tried breaking the abs kicked in and wouldn-??t allow me to break. A car was going and last second finally car stopped. It was so scary! Many times this keeps happening as I-??m breaking if road has a slight bump or rocks the breaking system kicks in and takes over not allowing me to break. You hear the noise of the ABS taking over when it shouldn-??t. I took car to hyundai service and they said they couldn-??t -?? replicate-?? the problem. I don-??t know how they couldn-??t because iI happens all the time!
I was going fairly slow, about 25. Approached a stop sign and my vehicle began shaking uncontrollably and I could not stop. Ended up going through the stop sign and it stopped abruptly. This could have been a deadly scenario. This is not the first time it has happened but not to this extend. Also the rear collision warning does not always work! I backed into a dumpster at work and now have thousands of dollars to repair my back hatch. I feel UNSAFE in this vehicle and driving my three year old son around in it!
Three times in the last month, the vehicle has failed to stop within a normal distance when brakes are applied. All 3 of these occurred when slowing the vehicle with the brakes at slow speeds on rough surfaces. The front of the car bounces, the brake pedal vibrates rapidly and the brakes release. Even though brake pedal pressure is applied at a normal door pressure, the car doesn-??t slow down and will continue forward potentially entering an intersection or hitting the car in front of it. When brake pressure is increased pressing extremely hard on the pedal, the car stops very abruptly.
When going approximately 15mph on a brick road when approaching a stop sign I began breaking and the breaks malfunctioned. The breaks began almost pulsating like the ABS was kicking on. I was unable to stop my vehicle and had to turn onto the upcoming road. Luckily no other vehicles were present or this would have caused an accident.
ABS activates when pressing brakes and hit any type or bump. Extreme shaking and shuddering of the whole vehicle and steering wheel until vehicle stops. This has happened more than 5 times since purchase in April
The car will continue driving forward when pressing the break pedal when you try to stop on uneven pavement, potholes, broken roads etc, I nearly rear ended a car with my entire family in the car including my kids also a 2 year old, since the car refused to simply stopped and I was going between 10-15mph, ABS is very sensitive and it kicks in when it shouldn't making it extremely dangerous for a family hauler vehicle, this has to be investigated as there are 1000's of reports with the same issue and Hyundai refuses to fix this issue, issue a recall ASAP!!!
The vehicle fails to break when going over potholes, bumps in the road, uneven pavement nearly rear ending other vehicles, it's extremely dangerous for a family hauler vehicle!
I have a 2024 Hyundai Pallisade and have had the brakes not work properly three separate times. After one time I had my husband drive when I needed to drive the kids because it scared me so much. After two weeks I started driving it again full time and the brakes locked up again and I slid and couldn't stop. I had Hatchett Hyundai take the car for weeks and it never happened for them they said. I got it back for a couple days and while driving on a non bumpy and non rocky road after exiting the highway I almost got in a catastrophic wreck because the brakes locked up and I almost slammed into the car in front of me. I had to veer into another lane to the right as the whole car was shaking and would not brake. I immediately called Hatchett Hyundai and said I was not comfortable driving the car and would never get in it again because of what happened. They have said they've never heard of this and cannot do anything without getting it to happen again. I have found multiple things online about people having the exact same issue. It is horrible and scary that they are avoiding the issue and putting lives at risk.
The brakes stop working intermittently. The dealership started it's a known issue but there hasn't been a recall and the is buying they can do. There is no warning when this happens, they just stop working. My wife actually went through an intersection- luckily the were no cars in the intersection.
Braking system. While driving at low speed (15mph and under) the brakes malfunction, the car shakes, and it takes about twice as long to stop. It may be an issue with the ABS system, but I-??m unsure. Roads were clear and not uneven. Thankful there were no cars or pedestrians in front of me.
The anti-lock brake system engaged on a dry road while trying to stop at a light. The braking distance increased dramatically with very little control of the vehicle and almost caused an accident rear-ending the car ahead of me with kids in car.
I was approaching an intersection and it was a red light. There were rumble divets on the road to notify drivers to slow down. When attempting to break at 20mph, the brakes appeared to lock up and I couldn-??t slow down despite applying constant pressure to the brakes. I nearly hit the car in front of me and it was very dangerous. I-??ve never felt that before in a car and feel Hyundai needs to address the ABS system.
Car doesn't brake as expected over uneven surfaces (pot holes, speed bumps, divots) at low speeds (under 10 miles per hour). Instead of the car braking the ABS system kicks in causing a rumble and the car to continue to travel forward at its current speed. This in turn causes the driver to engage the brake completely to get the car to stop before rear ending a vehicle in front or proceeding past stop signs, red lights, and entering cross traffic.
I had this issue many times over the last couple of months. Every time the vehicle passes a pot hole or significant bump the brakes lock and I can't brake. No matter how hard I hit on it. This has caused many dangerous where I was unable to brake and almost hit another vehicle. It seems like the anti locking mechanisms or anti skid mechanism kick in and lock the brakes. I can hear a vibrating sound from beneath the car.
