Your car has experienced two incidents where it loses power when you press the gas pedal, instead displaying warning codes on the dashboard. Both times, the vehicle only resumed normal operation after you shifted to park, turned off the engine, restarted it, and shifted back to drive. The dealership updated your software after the first incident, but the problem occurred again about a week later, putting you in a dangerous situation in traffic.

Your 2024 Palisade has shut off multiple times while driving in traffic, with all dashboard warning lights coming on and the engine losing power while you're moving. The gear selector became unresponsive during these incidents, and even after the dealership replaced your battery, the stalling happened again during their testing. The dealership hasn't been able to permanently identify or fix the root cause, even after extensive testing.

Your 2024 Palisade has two open safety recalls that need attention. One recall involves the seat belt buckle potentially not latching properly in a crash, which could increase injury risk. Additionally, your vehicle has a powertrain fault triggering the check engine light, and it's been at the dealership for over 30 days awaiting repair. The fixes will likely involve seat belt buckle replacement and powertrain diagnostics to address the engine fault.

Hyundai Palisade fails to shift gears from 1st to 2nd or 2nd to 3rd coming from a stop. Engine RPMS continuously shoots up until I put it in park causing a very unsafe environment since I had would be forced to stop in moving traffic. Brought car to Hyundai dealership and upon inspection they found internal transmission failure where they removed and replaced with a refurbished transmission. This also causes some concern and have noticed already replication of this issue.

I am unsure what exact component malfunctioned but in 5 separate times within the past 2 months, the vehicle has failed to stop at a normal time when pressing the brakes and a loud rumbling occurs. It feels as if I am sliding on ice.Two of the times it occurred on uneven road surfaces, however 3 times I could not identify an issue with the road. They all occured when coming to a stoplight/stop sign or when I had to stop due to a vehicle slowing down or stopping in front of me. In each occurrence I was going under 20 mph. The safety of others could have definitely been impacted as it took a few seconds to actually stop the vehicle more than it should have. Someone could have been walking and crossing the street in front of me. Or if I was too close to the car in front of me it could have hit it. No warning messages appeared on the dashboard prior, but during the occurrence in the last time, I noticed the word "shift" appear. This word could have shown up during the first few times and I could have missed it. On Tuesday September 9th I took it to the dealership and they checked everything out and the vehicle did not produce the same symptoms when they tested it out over the hour I was there. They said they reported the issue but they did not know the reason it was occuring.

A 4-month-old child was in the vehicle during the failure. The vehicle collided with a vehicle and was scratched and then collided with the mirror on another vehicle where it came to a stop. The contact sustained knee and leg inquires. The contact was pending a doctor's appointment. A police report was filed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Each time the vehicle is driven the transmission will slip out of gear when trying to shift and send the engine rpm into a rev. During this vehicle stops accelerating and feels as if it is completely in neutral. Finally the transmission will slam into gear jostling the occupants. This happens when the engine attempts to shift around 15,20,25 and 40 mph. Once the transmission slipped out of gear on a shift, lost acceleration, and then slammed to a halt as if shifting into park. The vehicle was moving at 15 mph when this occurred and the vehicle came to a complete stop. I have taken the vehicle into the dealers service department to be told they cannot duplicate the issue. Each time when I get the vehicle back it immediate starts slipping out of gear on shifts again. I have recorded the issue numerous times but have been unable to get the dealer to accept there is an issue.

The transmission failed at under 800 miles on this new vehicle. Each gear shift in the transmission was substantially extended and the vehicle would jerk when sitting into gear. You could hear/feel the engine revving while only accelerating slightly. When entering the highway, the vehicle's extended shift caused a very slow and delayed acceleration, requiring other drivers to change lanes or rapidly slow down to avoid a collision. The Hyundai dealer confirmed the transmission issue, and submitted a warranty claim to Hyundai which was approved. The vehicle is currently pending repair. There were no warning lamps or messages. I have several videos showing the problem, but can not attach them.
