Poor gas milage

This is my 3rd Palisade starting with a 2021 Limited, then a 2025 Calligraphy, and finally the 2026 Calligraphy Hybrid AWD. I selected the hybrid for 2 reasons, one being the increased gas mileage and the 2nd was the increased horsepower. While reasonably pleased with the performance, I'm terribly dissatisfied with the vehicle mileage. The 29 city/30 highway sticker estimate is way off as I'm getting approximately 27 locally, but only about 24 on the highway(Gas mileage was calculated using mileage and actual fuel consumed). Hyundai of Jefferson City service says there's nothing they can do since the vehicle is not indicating any problem issues. I can assure you it's not the way I drive the vehicle. Both of my previous Palisades got better MPG than the EPA estimates.

Thank you for your feedback. Mileage distances are determined by standardized tests under controlled circumstances. Real world range is also affected by driving style, weather and the use of the climate control. Every effort is made to provide customers with accurate information. ^cc

Problems with my Palisade Hybrid

Had two major electrical issues within the first month of ownership. The front louvers didn't open and close properly and the instrument panel went blank. The vehicle has been in the shop since 1 Dec 2025. Currently requesting Hyundai Motor America buy back the vehicle under the state Lemon Law.

DON'T BUY! Computer fried just by sitting in my driveway for a week.

Died by sitting in my driveway for two weeks in below freezing temperatures. Not only did the battery die, but it somehow also fried the hybrid system. Would not recommend to anyone.

I just need another one.

If I wasn't having issues, I would love this car but it is in the shop more than it is home. I know that they are not all like this but I believe I have a lemon. It is in the shop even now for a repetitive battery issue, this time. Also spent 19 days in shop due to corrosion which needed new parts as soon as I got the car. Hope Hyundai does right by me and gives me another car.

Not as advertised, this car needs attention

Carbin and ride are great. Mpg of 24 is not as advertised for 4 cyl hybrid. Battery was replaced at 729 miles. Air flap system failure at 1,500 miles, engine light on and still on at 4,500 miles, and low engine oil warnings at 1,700 miles. Not what I waited (a long time) for.

Na

I am extremely dissatisfied with my Hyundai Palisade due to ongoing reliability and safety concerns. Since purchasing the vehicle, I have had to take it back to the dealership approximately 6–7 times, primarily a recurring issue with the 12V battery continuously discharging. This problem has not only been inconvenient but also raises serious safety concerns, as the vehicle has failed to start on multiple occasions. Despite repeated visits, the issue remains unresolved, which is both frustrating and unacceptable for a vehicle in this price range. I expected a higher level of quality and dependability, but my experience has been the opposite. At this point, I have lost confidence in the vehicle and would not recommend it based on my experience.

Lots of hiccups

Love the vehicle, but so two months into ownership, one recall because the car has killed someone. We have a check engine light on because a flat isn't flapping, and we've been unable to use our digital key because it killed the battery and we had to have it replaced.

Battery issues

I bought the vehicle on 1/19/26. The battery has died 3 times. The battery was replaced twice in the month March. The dealership refused to do a parasite test. Told the issue is that I don’t drive the vehicle enough. I’m very disappointed.

Hyundai Palisade Hybrid has serious mechanical issues

I have not owned this vehicle for more than 45 days and have under 2,000 miles. The Hyundai Palisade Hybrid suffered a catastrophic system failure while in motion. The car stalled and became completely inoperable in the middle of a busy intersection. The situation was so dangerous that the Fire department had to physically push the vehicle out of active traffic to safety. During this event, the dashboard displayed multiple critical warnings, including "Check Hybrid system," "Check driver assistance system," and a diagnostic error for the 'transmission control unit" It is completely unacceptable for a brand-new vehicle to experience a total powertrain collapse that puts the driver and public in immediate physical danger. This is not a minor "break-in" issue, it's a fundamental failure of a new vehicle. Since this happened, I've researched and there are multiple stories of Hyundai Palisade Hybrid owners experiencing similar issues. I do not feel comfortable continuing to drive this vehicle after having to have such a major repair so soon after purchasing it.
