In short, the transmission has been replaced, the fuel injectors and other components. After that gets fixed they are saying we need a whole new engine and hyundai with only a pay a portion of it. We did the oil consumption test and it failed. The car was down for almost two months and they want us to pay 6k as our part. This is absolutely ridiculous and this seems to have been a known issue.

Hello, I have a 2020 Hyundai Palisade that was bought last year in 2024. It-??s had no issues with the engine up until approximately the last 2 weeks with oil consumption and noises from the engine rattling. I contacted the dealership to get it checked out and on the way there it caught fire. The engine died and almost all of the oil leaked out. The engine block now has a hole in it, so it is unable to be driven. My husband was driving and had just had surgery. Thankfully I was driving in a separate vehicle with my kids in case something like this happened. It has been sitting at the dealership since the 28th of May. The dealership inspected it and said there is no known cause at this time. The dealership also said they unfortunately can-??t do anything. I called my insurance and they said the only thing they can cover is the damages caused by the fire. The estimate amount to fix it is 13K. But I believe the engine malfunctioned and was already having problems without my knowledge of it. There were no warning lights or alerts stating there were any problems with the vehicle. I also do know there is a class action lawsuit happening because of the 2020 Hyundai Palisades.

UNKNOWN. Rough idling. Throwing itself into park & turning the engine off but dash stays on like engine is running. Engine, oil, battery, theft light does come on when this happens but go away after starting car. Has been to mechanic multiple times but showing no codes & unable to figure out the cause of it. The car can not just idle either. Has been going on for over 6 months.

Experienced complete engine failure. Car was at a Certified Hyundai dealership 2 weeks prior for new plugs and new coil pack. Multiple point inspection with no noted issues. Driving on a 3 hour trip when suddenly the engine started knocking without an engine light or oil light coming on. Pulled over and no oil on the dip stick. The same dealership did an oil change at 86,000 miles now the car has 92,000. No oil change suggested at last visit. Sounds very similar to other recall descriptions. Please review

I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding my 2020 Hyundai Palisade, which has experienced a sudden and complete engine failure. This issue poses serious safety concerns and appears consistent with widespread reports of engine-related defects in Hyundai vehicles. I purchased this vehicle in 2023 from CarMax as a used vehicle, and at the time of purchase, I signed all necessary documents, including the federally required Lemon Law Disclosure form. This document is intended to protect consumers and ensure transparency about any known issues or potential defects associated with the vehicle. At no time was I informed that my vehicle may be subject to engine-related concerns that could result in total engine failure. Recently, my Hyundai Palisade-??s engine failed, requiring a full replacement. I have discovered that Hyundai has issued multiple recalls in recent years related to defective engines in various models due to manufacturing flaws that can lead to knocking, stalling, or engine seizure-?"all of which create serious safety hazards. Although my vehicle is not currently listed under a recall, it is highly suspicious that I am facing the exact same problem affecting thousands of other Hyundai owners. This situation is unacceptable and undermines consumer trust. I urge the NHTSA to investigate whether the 2020 Hyundai Palisade should be included in existing or new recall campaigns related to engine defects. No consumer should bear the burden of an expensive engine replacement when manufacturer defects are clearly a pattern within the brand. Please advise me of any steps I can take to formally escalate this matter and ensure Hyundai is held accountable for this serious failure.

The vehicle has an engine flaw, which caused the vehicle engine to stop running while I was driving down a busy highway to take my children to their activities. The traffic behind me nearly slammed into the back of my Hyundai Palisade because the engine cut off without warning. There was no indication of engine trouble, no dashboard lights, no warnings at all. All the preventive maintenance was performed at the dealership, including an oil change only one month prior to this incident. Turns out the engine cut off because of lack of oil. Now I am finding out from the dealership and the manufacturer that the engine does have a known Oil Consumption issue causing the combustion chamber to need cleaning before and beyond a preventive maintenance schedule. But there still needs to be a warning light or something to inform the driver about the potential engine cut off. It is unsafe to drive, and unfair for the owner to pay for this manufacturer flaw.

Acceleration is causing misfires or the engine to feel like it -??skips-?? Also grumbles or bubbles when I shut down.

- Beaverton, OR, USA

Oil consumption causing hesitation and near-stalling. Hard shifting as well. These issues led to dangerous situations where I was afraid to drive the vehicle and feared for my family's safety. Also had a failed A/C compressor which i had to replace out of pocket. These things shouldn't be happening on a 4 year old vehicle.

Description of Incident: The engine in my 2020 Hyundai Palisade Limited failed and ultimately seized despite having been regularly maintained and receiving an oil change less than 3,000 miles prior to the failure. The component that failed was the engine, and according to the dealership, it is seized and no longer operable. The vehicle is currently at the dealership and available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: The failure posed a significant safety risk. The engine began shaking while the vehicle was in motion, creating a sudden loss of power and drivability. I pulled over immediately and discovered that the engine oil dipstick was dry. I added oil right away, but the engine shut down shortly after. The abrupt loss of engine function while driving could have led to a serious accident had I been in traffic or at highway speed. Reproduction / Confirmation: Yes, the issue was confirmed by Hyundai at Courtesy, a certified Hyundai dealership. They diagnosed the engine as seized and also confirmed that oil was present at the time of inspection, ruling out owner neglect. Inspections Conducted: The vehicle and failed component (engine) have been inspected by the dealership, who submitted a case to Hyundai. However, the case was denied for goodwill coverage despite the circumstances. The manufacturer has been notified but has not physically inspected the engine themselves beyond the dealership-??s report. Warning Lamps or Symptoms: No Check Engine Light, oil pressure warning, or any dashboard message illuminated prior to or during the failure. The only symptom was engine shaking, which began just before the engine shut down. The oil loss occurred silently and without warning, making the issue especially dangerous and difficult to detect in time.

Engine is burning Oil at a rate that requires me to put 2 quarts of full synthetic oil every 2-3 weeks in my car. Hyundai is ignoring this problem and dealership says my engine is burning in a normal range. This is a known issue with these engines at hyundai over the past few years and if it is burning that much oil without any leaks there is no way that is safe.

I purchased a used 2020 Hyundai Palisade in June 2024. The vehicle has a defective engine caused by excessive oil consumption. I took the vehicle to the dealer service department and they confirmed the issue. A claim was made to Hynduai to replace the engine and it was denied. Not replacing the engine will further degrade the engine until it fails completely. Hyundai has been uncooperative is wanting to resolve the issue, even though is a commonly reported issue.

There is an oil leak coming from the oil filter housing, where it mates up to the block, causing the vehicle to lose oil

- Monroe, NC, USA

The vehicle, a 2020 Hyundai Palisade SEL, was located in a closed garage, unoccupied. Within 10 minutes of parking the car in the garage, it caught on fire, possibly originating on the front, driver's side. Due to this incident occurring inside a garage, there was damage to our home and a high risk of safety (including loss of life) to the home and its occupants. At this time, we are waiting for the insurance company to investigate the origin of the fire as there were no warning lights or any indication of risk. This fire happened very suddenly and unexpectedly and it is our sincere hope that a thorough investigation will prevent this from happening to other families.

My 2020 Palisade engine burns oil at an alarming rate. I have to add about 4 quarts of oil every couple of thousand miles. This is a known issue with Hyundai engines. The problem started about a year ago. At that time my car had 98,000 miles on it. I reported the problem to Hyundai. They said they were too busy to see me at that time and the earliest they could look at my car was over a month out. By the time they got me in and looked at my car they said I was over the 100k mile warranty and there was nothing they could do. This is a known issue with thousands of Hyundai motors. Hyundai has failed to recall their faulty engines and do right by their customers.

The engine started running rough and when I checked the oil it was 4 quarts low. Despite the oil being more than half empty, the oil light on the dash never came on. This is dangerous and will end up hurting future owners or those who don-??t get enough mileage on the vehicle within their warranty timeframe.
