Features given, then taken away. Why no choice?

I bought this SUV for variety of reasons, but one thing was the ease of one touch, foldable seats. I understand that there was an accident which caused a life, but to fix it you killed the feature completely. It should be up to the user who bought the device to determine whether they want to activate it and accept the risk or not. In my case, I have no small children and the ease of being able to manipulate this not only from the dashboard, but from the back with one button was part of the reason I got this large vehicle when considering my children and the lifestyle we lead. Interesting that the one touch capability was removed from the dash for the third row, but still remains for the second row. You need to allow the one touch back and make it be an option to select in the head unit. I don’t like having a feature that I paid for, chopped and taken away via a software update, without any way to opt out. Additionally, you have one touch hatch opening, but no one touch hatch closing, which is a huge pain for any adult trying to go about their day. Again, this should be an option that you can toggle in the head unit. I’ve had many instances of being held up in my child drop off-line at school because I had to stop and hold the button to close the lid- unacceptable. Both of these are resolvable with firmware updates that allow the user to choose.

The best car I ever had. I wish it were a little cheaper.

I enjoy driving my palisade hev every single day. Handling is very smooth so I don’t feel like I am driving a large sized car.

Palisade 4 months in

Love the vehicle and very glad that I chose the Hybrid. However, electronics continue to be a real concern. I still contend that the tailgate opened by itself overnight, which caused garage door to engage with it upon opening, causing damage to the rear panel. As I tried to stop its movement with my hands, the tailgate continued to close down on both hands, trapping them in the closure. The Service people at Weisner tried to see if it would replicate, but to no avail. This along with the back seats not stopping when blocked (and the subsequent recall), seem to support my contention. There are some serious electronic problems that I'm paying to get fixed while they should be covered under warranty

I really like the Hyundai line of vehicles.

I still can’t figure out how to set the auto lumbar massage in this car. It’s really nice when driving a long distance.

First three months in the 2026 Palisade Hybrid

Comfortable ride, enough buttons to control the basics, cameras help with the surroundings and lane travel as well as parking. I love the interior and the appointments of controls and cushions. I enjoy driving it. The engine has enough zip even though I am used to a v8. Overall, I am completely satisfied.

Big Surprise for a (Formerly) Loyal Honda Girl

I have always been a loyal Honda or Toyota person - four decades. But the professional car reviews all said to give the Palisade a try, and I’m so glad I did. I test drove the Honda Pilot and Hyundai Palisade back-to-back, and the difference was stark - it was the Palisade hands down.

Impressive!

We traded our Cadillac XT6 for the Palisade. In almost every way, we upgraded. Besides the benefit of better gas mileage and range, the Palisade is superior in overall quality and cabin space. We can legitimately seat 7 full-sized adults.

Vehicle Amazing, support for recalls so-so

With the severe safety risks concerning the rear seats and child safety, I have been surprised that a fix has been delayed so long. Other than this one issue as well as a few other first year recalls (which are always expected), this vehicle has surpassed all expectations and we love it. Power, economy, quality, comforts and features are all well beyond its price point.

Great vehicle so far, minus a few hiccups

We've noticed some problems with the Palisade when we took it on a short drive up into the mountain areas. It sounded like it was stuck in a low gear, and then there was a smell like something had overheated, but we didn't notice any warning lights come on the dashboard. Then we also noticed a few times when the vehicle is first driven in the morning where it seems to have a problem shifting out of first gear. We took it in to the dealership, but the service department could not duplicate the problem, and the electronic system showed no previous warnings or signs of trouble. We plan on driving it up some inclines again soon to see if we have the same issues. We've also had some problems with the electric seat controls, but I'm not sure if it is user error or not since we've only had the vehicle a short time.

Palisade - Hybrid

It's nice, i think it's a little overpriced as most cars are for the size and features.

Some PROBLEMS

1. The automatic door unlock often does not work quickly. Occasionally never. I have to pull out fob to open driver door. 2. Apple Car Play stopped connecting two weeks ago. 3. phone battery charger in center console overheats my iPhone. I cannot use it. 4. The head rest is uncomfortable because my head wants to be further back and I can not adjust it further back - so I bought a seat back cushion 3/4" thick. What a pain. 5. There is NO INDEX for the car manual. How stupid can you get. I can not find anything easily.

Great car until the recall update

I have enjoyed this vehicle since the day I got it. However, the recent recall "fix" has been a major disappointment. It removed two of my favorite conveniences—the very features that made me choose the Palisade over every other SUV. Losing the ability to control the third-row fold from the dash and the loss of the one-touch button is frustrating. To have this be the final solution is unacceptable to me. Without those features, the car is just "okay" instead of great.
