2022 Hyundai Palisade Engine Problems

Your 2022 Palisade caught fire while parked overnight without any warning lights appearing beforehand. The vehicle had been serviced at a dealer two weeks prior for a recall repair and oil change. The fire caused burns to your husband and damage to your home, and the vehicle was towed away without being diagnosed or repaired. A fix would require a thorough inspection by the manufacturer to identify what caused the fire and address the underlying engine or fuel system issue.

Your 2022 Palisade shudders and jerks while driving, with the check engine light flashing and an "Engine Overheating" message appearing on the dashboard. The engine was replaced by the dealer, and spark plugs were changed, but the jerking and overheating issues continue — the vehicle is now consuming coolant rapidly and feels like it might stall. The dealer was unable to service it further, and Hyundai is investigating the problem.

Your car may fail to accelerate normally when you press the gas pedal, and the engine may seize up completely on separate occasions. The check engine light will come on, and while you can restart the vehicle, the problem persists even after the dealer has made repairs twice. The issue appears to be getting worse over time. Diagnosing and fixing this will likely require comprehensive engine diagnostics and potentially replacement of engine components like fuel injectors, ignition coils, or the mass airflow sensor.

Your engine is stalling at every stop and requires restarting, accompanied by a pinging noise during acceleration. The dealership found your oil level dangerously low, causing misfiring, but your low oil warning light didn't activate. Despite having all maintenance records, your engine is burning approximately 0.75 to 0.9 quarts of oil every 1,000 miles—far more than normal—yet the dealership says this is within Hyundai's acceptable range. Fixing this issue will likely require diagnosing the cause of excessive oil consumption, which could involve inspecting piston rings, valve seals, or gaskets.

My radiator is leaking

The engine is burning oil at a rate that is unreasonable. When the oil level is low, there is no oil light indicator to show that the car is low on oil. My safety is being put at risk because the engine could seize up at any moment and may have slow or no acceleration. I caught the low oil problem just in time because i have a child who was aware of what the issue was with the car. I have had normal oil changes. This is a known issue in Hyundai's and these vehicles need to be repaired/replaced. The care will be inspected by a Hyundai dealership.

After my 2022 Palisade Calligraphy with 95K miles stalled several times in intersections and ran rough, dealership said I was 4 quarts of oil low. Dealership recommended an oil consumption test and vehicle burns 1 quart every 568 miles. Hyundai denied my claim under their 100K power train warranty since I was 2nd owner, and they did not make a good will offer. After researching, it appears oil consumption is a common problem with Hyundai vehicles, specifically the Palisade. Aftermarket warranty I purchased denied my claim since it didn't cover oil consumption. Submitting this incident so others are aware of oil consumption issues with Hyundai vehicles as vehicle is unsafe when it stalls.

The oil filter housing is plastic and breaks easily. Most places I tried to get an oil change refuse to work on this car because they don’t want to be liable for any damage to the engine do to a cracked oil filter housing. This is a know issue and the manufacturer has not issued a recall or offered a fix. This forces owners to bring there vehicles to a Hyundai dealership and pay a premium for an oil change.

The dealership is stating we have bad gas as the gravity of the gas was .74. And that we had bad fuel injectors. Mind you the dealership before this one advised us we had spark plug issues. So we called corporate and explained the situation and they advised we were covered under warranty. Now we tell them to go ahead and get rid of the bad gas and with the understanding we are covered under warranty for the fuel injectors. We advise the dealership we spoke to corporate and they advised the fuel injectors are covered under warranty. The weekend goes by we check on the car Monday and the dearlship advises we are not covered. So we call corporate back who is now advising it's up to the dealerships to honor the warranty and it looks like we are not covered. We are the original owners of the car and can't understand how our car has been down for 3 months and the person who makes the warranty want cover. This is the classic bait and switch and who protects the consumer?

The contact owns a 2022 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that when the vehicle it was purchased, the VIN was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V633000 (Trailer Hitches) and was repaired. The contact stated that after the recall repair was completed, the radiator suddenly failed, and the vehicle would overheat, and the heater failed to operate as needed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the radiator had failed and needed to be replaced. The radiator was replaced. After having the repair completed, the vehicle would shake while accelerating and driving at various speeds. The contact stated that failure mostly occurred while the transmission was shifting into 2nd gear. The contact stated that engine was overheating and the coolant reservoir needed to be refilled every day. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to Tasca Central Avenue Hyundai (111 S Central Ave, Hartsdale, NY 10530); and it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission was slipping and needed to be repaired. The vehicle was returned to the first dealer who diagnosed that the coolant hose had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact retrieved the vehicle from the dealer, and the transmission warning light was illuminated. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and opened a case. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

Cruise control resume function was activated at a low speed after making turn into driveway car automatically tried to resume to 55 mph. The speed at most during the time of activation was less than 10 mph.

While driving the car on highway the oil plug fell and eventually seized the engine. There has been multiple complaints for the same for other Hyundai vehicles as well. The car is in dealership right now with engine failure. While driving the car on I-81, suddenly smoke started coming out of hood. Stopped to check and then while starting the car again, saw oil check and engine check light come on after. The dealership mentioned oil plug fell off and oil spilled all over engine. The last service was over 7 months ago and was due for service soon. Couldn’t be negligence but a problem with Hyundai.

The contact checked the oil level and noticed there was no oil on the dipstick. The contact added oil, and the vehicle was restarted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 48,000. The VIN was not available.

Premature radiator failure that could lead to engine failure while driving. Common problem with Radiator at low milage. Cracks and looses coolant at lower drivers side.

The radiator has a leak no warning lights went on but the back up reservoir was empty the car started to gurgle multiple times after driving the car for a long road trip we heard the bubbling sound checked under the hood and see pink radiator fluid on the underside of the car and pink corrosion on the radiator itself.

In April 2022, we purchased a new 2022 Hyundai Palisade from a dealership due to persistent issues with our previous Hyundai Santa Fe, which had ongoing engine problems and recalls. After multiple unsuccessful repairs and software updates on the Santa Fe, we decided to trade it in for the Palisade. Since the purchase, the Palisade has undergone over ten warranty-related repairs. In early 2023, an oil consumption test revealed significant warranty concerns, leading the dealership to keep the vehicle for additional diagnostics. This process lasted nine months and included a full engine replacement. During this time, my husband filed a complaint with Hyundai Corporate, seeking a lemon law buyback or an equivalent trade-in. Hyundai Corporate denied our request, stating that we did not qualify under the lemon law and refusing to buy back or offer a fair trade-in for the vehicle. In June 2024, after nearly a year of repairs, we retrieved the vehicle, only to experience severe issues shortly afterward. The Palisade began jerking and shaking on the highway, and the check engine light came on. The dealership identified a faulty mass air flow sensor and ordered parts for its repair. They assured us it was safe to drive until the repair was completed. However, the next day, the vehicle displayed the same issues. A diagnostic at Auto Zone revealed problems with both the air flow sensor and the fuel injector, indicating unsafe driving conditions. We returned the vehicle to Hyundai College Station, where we received a loaner car while they conducted repairs. During this period, we were informed of a "computer digital data hack" that prevented the dealership from providing documentation of the services performed. When we picked up the Palisade, we were told that only the mass air flow sensor had been repaired, with no work done on the fuel injector or other issues. Currently our vehicle exhibited engine defaults and the engine light came on. It is at Principle Hyundai for repairs

The vehicle went into limp mode while traveling on the highway. Vehicle decelerated from 65mph to 30mph very quickly & without warning (no indicator lights came on). I was almost rear ended, since the car behind be had no idea I was decelerating due to no brake lights. It then slowly decelerated to 14mph as I was able to get off highway. Upon inspection, by me, the vehicle was found to have very little oil & I do get my oil changes on the required interval at the dealership. It had been about 2500miles since my last oil change. This vehicle is available for inspection if needed. No warning lights or messages came on & the app that notifies of problems stated the car had no issues. The vehicle has been to the dealership multiple times & I have been made to come back every 1K miles for oil consumption tests x 3. As of the 3rd test, it has been calculated that my car is burning 1qt or oil every 775miles. The dealership is requesting a new engine for my vehicle. Hopefully it will be approved. But, I personally feel this is a major safety hazard to just have your car stop at of nowhere with no warning light or alarm.

I was on the highway when all the bells and whistles went off saying low coolant. I have under 15,000 miles and my radiator went. It was repaired under warranty but still feel this should not have happened.

The contact owns a 2022 Hyundai Palisade. The contact stated that while driving in snowy and freezing weather the windshield wipers became inoperable due to an accumulation of snow and ice at the bottom of the windshield. The driver had to open the hood to remove the ice in order to allow the wipers to function. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. Additionally, while driving the odor of antifreeze was present inside the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who informed that tiny pin holes were present in the radiator and that the radiator needed to be replaced; however, the part was on back order due to high demand. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 10,000.

Radiator began to leak in January 2023 at approximately 15000 miles. Replaced under warranty.

My Palisade 2022 was only on 10k miles when the coolant tank is completely empty. I can see coolant on the engine bay floor as well as my garage floor. There is definitely a leak which drained the coolant. This is an urgent situation since my engine could stop working on the road anytime. Checking the Palisade forum, there are numerous incident like this so this is a systematic design failure on the cooling system.

Started to notice an oil spot under the vehicle at around 4500 miles. Since the car is brand new and hadn't even had its first oil change, we immediately scheduled a service appointment. We were finally able to get it into the dealership 2 weeks later and received a diagnosis shortly after drop off. Turns out the oil leak was coming from the head gasket on the right bank of the engine and requires replacement of both head gaskets. The engine oil level was low and the service technician recommended the car not be driven until it could be repaired as simply adding oil would continue to contribute to the leak. Parts have been ordered and requested via next day delivery however they currently do not have an ETA as to when the parts will arrive. The repair job is estimated at 10-12 hours so it will be out of service for 2 days just for repairs once parts do come in. Plus Hyundai would not reimburse car rental fees even though the dealer was out of service loaners however after a day, they were able to provide one. Of greater concern however is why would the head gaskets be leaking oil while the car is still basically being broken in from new. I've had cars of multiple brands with well over 100K miles that never leaked from the head gaskets. If these engines are assembly line built, I'm concerned that the torque specs were off when assembling the heads to the block causing the leak. If that's the case, this issue could begin to pop up on many other vehicles built at the same time. Hyundai is covering under warranty at no cost but now I'm concerned over our investment that we've only had now for 3 months and future reliability. The vehicle is currently out of service for an undetermined amount of time. If not caught, this could have resulted in a full engine failure as the low oil warning never came on.
