Maintenance Is Not Covered

I purchased this vehicle less than 2 months ago with an added on maintenance plan. Now with a powertrain misfire I’m being told the maintenance is not covered on the 2026 palisade. I would have never purchased the car or the additional maintenance plan if I knew this.

Scratches dents shimmy

When I bought this car, it had a dent on the back a large gash on the roof rack and paint chips on the door. And it was brand new. I’m having difficulty resolving the issue with the dealership and now reviewing it with Hyundai corporate.

Many issues

We have had the 2026 palisade for 2.5 months. The windshield cracked after the most benign pebble strike on day 3. Last week the auto hold stopped working. Today the check engine light has been blinking during acceleration.

Missing important features

I miss the automatic lock features when turning off and leaving vehicle. I have to locate remote and remember to lock it. The notification is helpful to remind me to remotely lock it. Also there should be a hand grip to assist people getting into the vehicle. It needs to be located closer to front of door. Maybe a running board would help older individuals like myself. I have had difficulty with display and or cue system. At this point I have only made short trips with the vehicle. Too early to rate some areas.

Under powered or not geared correctly for this size vehicle.

The Palisade has sub standard acceleration for this size vehicle. The door locks are inconsistent. I can’t count the times I have been left standing in at the driver door trying/waiting to get the door to unlock without pulling out the key fob to open the door. Quite frustrating! Hyundai took too many features off that were on previous limited versions to over featurize the Caligraphy model. Buyer beware. Fit and finish are fine. Ride is solid and quiet.

Software bugs, slow acceleration and gas mileage

Love my 2026 Calligraphy Palisade, white with tan leather interiors and big rims are just three things I love about it. But lets talk about the software bugs, not many but are annoying. The screen at times goes blank on random activity, I could be looking at the map (waze) and going to another app will blank the map and you’ll have to turn the vehicle off and on again to get it to show the content of the map. Or some times the back seats wont respond to moving up or down, or if it rains the computer will tell you that the sensors are not working. This last one, once it stop raining then it will get back to normal. Acceleration- well it’s slow, like very slow. Make sure when getting into a highway you have time and space to let the Prius oh sorry the Palisade to get up to the safe speed to enter the highway. Gas mileage- weekly fill ups, forget about every 10-15 days, this is weekly every 6 days. -PARTS: ok so I needed to pull a small trailer and the connector for the trailer brake lights is a different connector and it is not available in the US. Tried another connector and it didn’t work. A rock cracked my windshield three days ago, made my claim through the insurance, safelight came to help but the windshield was not available and they don't have the software to recalibrate the cameras and sensors. So I have to wait with a cracked windshield because the logistics for parts are not yet available!

Great car but needs some changes

It’s a beautiful vehicle but there are definitely changes that need to happen. The rear view mirror camera is WAY too close and at night it looks fuzzy. The audio/carplay/ navigation is glitchy and doesn’t reset unless you turn your car off for a few minutes then back on. The head rest in driver and passenger seat are super close and cannot be adjusted. Within a month of having my car, the driver’s side window would not go up and had to be fixed. Also makes a weird clunk noise when braking.

2026 vs 2023

I like the new design of the 2026 Palisade but there were some stupid changes from the 2023 to the 2026. I do not like that the console is smaller, with less storage and does not connect to the dash. I do not like that they moved around buttons and went from a push button format that was easily accessible to the lever gear shift - having all the buttons on the console was much easier. I do like that the 2026 model has fold in side mirrors. I also do not like that they went with a less powerful engine in the 2026. I purposely seek out a vehicle with a V6 but the power of the engine in the 2026 model lacks - when I press the gas pedal, I want to go.

Cipullo Review

Overall very satisfied with the vehicle - styling, performance, and value. The disappointing items are: 1 - the front roof sun shade is manual, not automatic; 2 - the control buttons to left of steering column are difficult yo see and well lighted, 3 - in general all control buttons are not well lighted, specially when activated; 4 - too few map display options and some are hard to see because of dark background; 5 - I found the instructions and information for the infotainment system's functionality to not be detailed enough to fully describe functions / capabilities.
