Recalls for the 2024 Hyundai Palisade: 5
The side curtain air bags for third-row occupants may deploy improperly in a crash. Improper side curtain air bag deployment increases the risk of injury during a crash.
The seat belt buckles in the driver, passenger, and second-row window seats may fail to latch. Seat belt buckles that fail to latch may not properly restrain occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The engine valve springs may break while driving, which can result in a loss of drive power and possibly create a hole in the engine block. A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash. A hole in the engine block increases the risk of a fire.
The Occupant Detection System (ODS) may fail to detect an occupant and deactivate the passenger-side front air bags. Deactivated front passenger air bags will not deploy as intended, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.
The electronic controller for the Idle Stop & Go oil pump assembly may contain damaged electrical components that can cause the pump controller to overheat. An electric oil pump assembly that overheats increases the risk of a vehicle fire.
