Found our car

We love our Palisade. We are a Hyundai family having had a Tuscon, three Elantras and now the Palisade. We keep coming back for the quality, features and comfort that have been readily available and just simple to use in every one of our Hyundai's.

I like the Palisade but Kay misses features on the 2017 Highlander

Miss sunglass storage in the headliner. Miss the storage space in the center console to hide purse and such. The space in front of the console is just wasted cause you cant hide anything there that cant be seen from outside. same for the rear are to hide tools, purse, etc. I dont want to leave things visible when we go in a store or gas station, but there are not hidden spaces. Highlander got better mileage.

Frustating Entertainment Console

I just want my radio to turn on when I start the vehicle the exact same way it was when I turned it off. Every single time I start my car I have to do a minimum of 5 things before my radio turns on to the station it was on when I turned the vehicle off. Home screen on entertainment console needs to be more user friendly and customizeable. Believe it or not I am looking to trade vehicle in because of this. Aggravating is understatement.

Overall a great vehicle

Traded in a 2022 Palisade for the 2026. Pros, the interior is phenomenal, comfortable, roomy with lots of extras. Cons, the engine size. Still confused as to why they made the vehicle bigger but reduced the size of the engine. Was not a deal breaker because I didn’t buy the vehicle to race, but for comfort and luxury which it exceeds.

Excellent car - needs some fine tuning

I love everything about the car, except the weaker engine which makes for drag during shifting in transition. I also hate the cheap feeling key fob, it should have real metal and feel more substantial. The design is also tacky on the key fob.

Comfortable but problems with door locks

My vehicle is very comfortable, drives well and looks good with plenty of nice features. There is a major issue with me in terms of locking doors. If you do not have your fob or phone with you you cannot lock your doors. Example bring groceries in, when you finish you can’t lock your doors. If you are sitting in the passenger seat and your husband is inside the store and he has the keys in his pocket and a stranger is heading to you, you cannot lock the doors. I consider that a safety issue and would appreciate a fix to it. Dealership has not found anyway to lock it either. I had the same car in a 2022 and it does not do this. It works correctly.

Overall very nice vehicle to this point.

My wife and I appreciate most of what this vehicle has to offer. Small annoyances such as really loud turn turn signals and seat belt alarms. However, on a much bigger annoyance is not being able to control the second and third row seats from the infomat system. This was a really nice option when we were considering purchasing this brand of vehicle. To eliminate any option from a vehicle that a customer pays for without any kind of remedy or compensation should not be something that Hyundai should be satisfied with. As stated it's a lovely vehicle but when you expect the consumer to absorb the cost or the inconvenience of a deleted option on any vehicle should be unacceptable especially when this is one of the features that sets this vehicle apart from others in it's class. We've contemplated purchasing a new Santa Fe, but we are a little leary not knowing how Hyundai will handle other recalls.

Second Palisade

Amazing Ride, comfort and quietness. Love all the safety features. Bought one in 2020 and it was hard to let go. Great car! This 2026is even better.

In the shop

Love the look of it. Have had more issues since purchasing in July that I'd like. A recall/software update in recent months made the car engine seem like it was going to explode. I had to have the vehicle towed. Then had issues with pickup that caused inconvenience, and me having to make multiple trips to the dealership. Now I am back today at the dealership. The ride is just not pleasant. I've had Palisades as rental vehicles, and their ride is typically fine. But this '26 has a slight bounce at highway speeds (mostly 60-80 mph) and there's a weird feeling in the brake/steering when even driving in my neighborhood (25-30 mph). The driving experience, so far, has made me miss my 2023 Palisade—and that seems surprising, since you'd think this would be an upgrade. Again, love the look and comfort aspects of it; lot of nice features. But the drive has just been very underwhelming and has already made me consider other brands. That's very disappointing, since I've only had the vehicle since July. Also: In both the 2023 and 2026 Palisades, I have been very underwhelmed by the transmission. It does not fire consistently; very jerky. If you get into the accelerator, especially when you're starting acceleration up a hill, it either 1) responds very little or 2) responds all at once. It's so bad. This seems like it should be layup stuff by 2026. I expected it to be corrected in the newer version, and yet it's somehow worse. The vehicle has tons of power, but seemingly does not receive it evenly. I used to tell people that the '23 Palisade was the best vehicle that I'd ever owned, even people on the street who would ask me about it. There is NO chance that I'd tell anyone that about my '26. It feels like a mistake at this point. And that stinks.

Not pleased with the way some of the features work

Dont like the way the heater does not have a separate setting so you have to set the temperature to75-78 to get warm air. Dont like the size and shape of the mirrors now that I dive it. Seats do not raise high enough. Not enough storage in the glove box and console. Hate the vehicle pause feature cant be disabled.
