Rattles, clunk in the rear, rattle in the dash, rattle in door, sometimes warning buzzer says someone or something is behind the vehicle but there’s nothing there. Last week the engine warning light came on 30 miles into a 240 mile trip car had transmission issues and engine kept loosing power. This vehicle has 10,600 miles on it I bought it 9 months ago nd it’s been in the Hyundai dealer 9 times.

BEWARE!!!

2025 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy Night Edition 4dr SUV AWD (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
25 of 29 people found this review helpful

BE WARNED!! We just bought a 2025 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy Night edition, over $60k, brand new. After 4000 miles and just over 6 months we have a check engine light on. Turns out for the last ten + years many if not all car manufacturers have been using a protein-based wire coating that is like CANDY to rodents of all kinds. Checked under the hood and found a large rat munching away at the wires and totally destroyed 4 different harnesses. Repaired at Hyundai, over $5000 to replace damaged components. Saw another Palisade arrive in service for the exact same thing while we were there for. The service department just laughed and said, "Yah that is a problem", and just blew it off. During our purchase of this vehicle, no one even mentioned this glaring problem with their cars (yup, all Hyundai cars) and potential problems that may occur. It seems there is a class action lawsuit in progress about this very issue. Lived at the same place for over 40 years and NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM.

When test driving, I heard air noise from rear of car. I figured out it was due to seat cooling option was turned on and no one was in the seats. I turned the seats cooling option off and it was very quiet.

Simply Spectacular

2025 Hyundai Palisade SEL Premium 4dr SUV AWD (3.8L 6cyl 8A)
11 of 12 people found this review helpful

If you are currently in the market for a midsize 3-row SUV, two things have probably become apparent. First, the Hyundai Palisade and its handsome sibling, the Kia Telluride, seem to be well on top of almost every single ranking list in the automotive press. Secondly, it seems like you can scarcely drive two minutes these days without encountering another Palisade or Telluride on the road. Once you have had the opportunity to test drive and/or purchase one, the reasons for these two things quickly become apparent. Dollar for dollar, it is hard to imagine beating these vehicles. I recently purchased the Palisade SEL Premium, and it has been simply spectacular. This is my first Hyundai, and I have to admit I approached the purchase with a sense of caution. We are typically a Subaru or Toyota family. But the Subaru Ascent, despite having some great qualities, just reminds me too much of my 2007 Subaru Tribeca. As for the Toyota Highlander, I was appalled when I read the Consumer Reviews on Edmunds. (Toyota, what the heck is going on?) As for all the others, for various reasons, nothing particularly impressed me. For me, the true game changer is the Palisade with the SEL Premium trim. Please take a hard look at it before buying any other SUV. It is chock-full of features you would normally find in a luxury SUV (heating steering wheel, heated/ventilated seats in the front and second rows, captain’s chairs, front parking sensors, moonroof, memory seats, AWD, and I’m probably forgetting some things). The tech is simply out of this world. If you are interested in a de facto luxury SUV and want to get it out the door for less than $50K, then this is the vehicle for you. When you throw in the 5 year/10 year warranties and the 3 years of free maintenance, not to mention the free Hyundai Bluelink…well. I for one am impressed. As you scour the internet, you will notice that the Palisade/Telluride comparison has grown into a bit of a cottage industry, and the sales figures would imply Telluride has the edge. Many people find the Telluride to be slightly more attractive, and it has nicer colors. But based on my experience, the Telluride can’t offer the same features as the Palisade SEL Premium, unless you really go with an upscale, expensive trim. (A base Telluride SX is almost impossible to find). Additionally, the little storage hideaway under the shifting buttons seems like a trivial thing (Palisade has it, Telluride does not) but it really is a great thing to have. All in all, after approximately three weeks, I can scarcely find anything to complain about. (The vehicle doesn’t seem to have a weather radar interface on the nav, but not a big deal). My biggest concern, however, is obvious: Will this amazing vehicle hold up? With so many bells and whistles, how will this vehicle be performing six years from now? How about ten? Will the synthetic leather hold up as well as the real thing? Will the Palisade offer the same unbelievable reliability my family has experienced with our Toyota Siennas? Only time will tell. As for the present, if you are shopping for a three-row midsize SUV, and you are working within a budget, I don’t know how the Palisade SEL Premium can be beaten.
