This complaint is a follow-up update to my previously filed complaint, NHTSA complaint no. 11726321, filed on March 23, 2026, regarding two open safety recalls on my 2025 Hyundai Palisade sel premium, VIN [xxx] . I am filing this updated complaint to report that a second failed repair attempt has now occurred on the seat belt recall (NHTSA recall no. 25v607 / Hyundai recall no. 283). Updated status of seat belt recall (25v607): first repair attempt: January 19, 2026 at liberty Hyundai, mahwah NJ (invoice no. [xxx). Technician confirmed open recall. No correction made. Parts specially ordered (rc283-s8500-qqh seat belt buckle kit). Parts were not available. Second repair attempt: April 2026 at my servicing Hyundai dealer. Technician again confirmed open recall. Seat belt buckle parts remain on order and are still not available. No correction made. Two documented failed repair attempts now on record. Updated status of airbag recall (26v034): as of the date of this complaint, Hyundai has still not developed a remedy for the third row airbag fmvss 226 violation. No repair has been attempted or completed because no fix exists. This recall remains completely unresolved. Summary: I purchased this vehicle on [xxx] from maxon Hyundai, union NJ. This is my primary and only family vehicle. I have children who regularly use the third row. After two separate dealer visits spanning more than three months, neither safety recall has been repaired. Hyundai has been unable to provide parts for the seat belt recall and has no remedy developed for the airbag recall. I am formally requesting that NHTSA: 1. Note this updated repair history in connection with complaint no. 11726321 2. Escalate pressure on Hyundai motor America to expedite parts availability for recall 25v607 3. Continue monitoring Hyundai's progress on developing a remedy for recall 26v034 (fmvss 226 violation) 4. Consider whether Hyundai's ongoing failure to remedy these safety defects warrants information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foi.
Unknown I am making complaint of the 3rd row airbags not passing federal inspection. I have not been in accident, but at this point I am very scared to drive my vehicle. I am trying to work with Hyundai motor company corporate to find another solution, since there is no remedy available and they do not know when it will be available. I was told to not put anyone in the back seat, but I purchased the vehicle for 3 rows because I need 3 rows for my family. I feel that myself, and others, were mislead when purchasing or leasing any 2020-2025 Hyundai Palisade. If we would of have known, we would of never purchased the vehicle.
My 2025 Hyundai Palisade has active safety recalls with no remedy available: recall 283 (seatbelt – 1st and 2nd row) recall 292 (third-row ejection mitigation) I have three young children (ages [xxx] , [xxx] , and a [xxx] ) in car seats and cannot avoid using the affected seating positions, including the third row. I contacted Hyundai motor America and my dealership and was advised: there is no remedy available, there are no safety protocols or usage guidelines, there is no next step or interim solution. I am concerned because my children are regularly using seating positions impacted by these recalls, and I have not been provided guidance on safe operation in the meantime. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I am the owner of a 2025 Hyundai Palisade sel premium, purchased in April 2025, currently at approximately 19,000 miles. I am writing to formally report two open safety recalls on this vehicle for which no remedy is currently available: 1. Third-row side curtain airbag recall: affecting approximately 568,576 Hyundai Palisade vehicles (model years 2020–2025). The third-row side curtain airbags may not deploy correctly during a rollover, failing to prevent passenger ejection. This defect is a documented violation of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) no. 226. As of the date of this complaint, Hyundai has not developed a fix. Owner notification letters are expected in late March 2026. In the interim, owners have been advised to avoid using the third row. 2. Seat belt recall: a separate seat belt recall is also open on this vehicle. I ordered the parts for this repair months ago and am still waiting. No repair has been completed to date. As a result, I am driving a brand-new vehicle with two unresolved safety defects and no timeline for repair on either. Because I have children who regularly occupy the third row, I am being forced to either expose them to a known safety risk or stop using the vehicle as intended. I am formally requesting that NHTSA: - investigate the urgency of Hyundai's timeline for developing a remedy - review whether Hyundai's interim guidance to owners is adequate given the severity of the fmvss 226 violation - consider whether a 'do not use third row' advisory should be formally and officially issued to all affected owners I purchased this vehicle in good faith as a family SUV. The inability to safely use the third row renders it unfit for its intended purpose. I urge NHTSA to apply pressure on Hyundai to expedite a remedy.

I am less than 8 months into a brand new vehicle that has had and has major safety recalls with no remedy in sight. I bought this car for safety and driving it while seatbelts and ejection mitigation have all failed NHTSA standards is horrifying for me and my family.
The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The contact received notifications of NHTSA campaign numbers: 26v034000 (air bags) and 25v607000 (seat belts); however, parts for the recall repairs were not yet available. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for a service appointment, and the contact was informed that the parts were on back order for NHTSA campaign number: 25v607000 (seat belts); and that parts were not yet available for NHTSA campaign number: 26v034000 (air bags). The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The contact had not experienced a failure.
My vehicle is affected NY the ejection mitigation recall. I have small children who sit in my third row of which Hyundai corporate advised is not safe. Hyundai has no foreseeable mitigation for this and is leaving me with an unusable third row resulting in a huge issue with transporting my family. I am also pregnant. After 4 weeks of back and forth with Hyundai they have refused to buy back my vehicle or come up with a solution. How many more children need to die at the hands of Hyundai? I want resolution for my family on a vehicle corporate as well as my local dealer ship advised to not put small children in the third row. Corporate has refused a buy back and has offered no solution. I cannot trade this vehicle either because their is a stop sale.

Vehicle is a 2025 Hyundai Palisade subject to Hyundai recall 292, concerning improper deployment of the third-row side curtain air bags in a crash, in noncompliance with fmvss 226 (ejection mitigation). Per Hyundai's recall notice, the remedy is still under development and no repair is currently available. The manufacturer has advised owners to continue driving while awaiting the remedy. The safety concern is significant because an infant is regularly transported in the third row of this vehicle. In a side-impact crash, improper side curtain air bag deployment increases the risk of injury or occupant ejection — a risk that falls directly on the person seated in the affected row. With no remedy available, owners have no means to mitigate this risk other than ceasing to use the third row entirely, which is not a reasonable long-term solution for a three-row SUV purchased specifically to accommodate additional family members. Regarding the specific guideline questions: the defect is a manufacturer-identified noncompliance and has not been (and cannot be) reproduced or inspected by a dealer, because no diagnostic or repair procedure exists. There are no warning lamps or pre-failure symptoms, as the defect would only manifest in the event of a crash. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance, as no crash has occurred. I am filing this complaint to formally document the safety risk while a remedy remains unavailable, and to request that NHTSA prioritize expedited development and deployment of the fix.

My 2025 Hyundai Palisade is subject to recall 292 (3rd-row airbag defect) and recall 283 (seatbelt buckle failure). The manufacturer has notified me that there is 'no remedy' available for the life-threatening airbag defect, and parts for the seatbelt repair are delayed at the dealership.

My 2025 Hyundai Palisade has multiple open safety recalls that have not been repaired and make the vehicle unsafe to operate. The dealership confirmed safety recalls effect my vehicle and my car is currently at the dealership since April 3rd. The first recall 283, involves the seat belts in the 1st and 2nd rows. Parts were ordered on January 20, 2026, but the repair has still not been completed after several months. The second issue is recall 292 involving the ejection mitigation system and defective 3rd row airbags. This defect can allow rear passengers to be ejected from the vehicle during a crash. I have been informed that there is currently no remedy available for this recall. Hyundai has failed to provide a repair within a reasonable time, and one of the defects has no available fix. I do not feel safe transporting my family in this vehicle due to these unresolved serious safety issues. Hyundai provided me a 2024 sante fe loaner vehicle in which is currently under safety recall for seatbelts and has no other loaners available for me. Hyundai USA, case manager [xxx] , case #xxx has denied buy back without explanation. My vehicle is currently not drivable, unsafe, and no remedy available. I want a buy back to be able to purchase a new, safe vehicle for my family. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

My vehicle has had a recall for seat belt issues for a while. My dealer has been unable to make corrections as Hyundai has not/does not have the equipment to repair the issue. Its been months. Now theres another issue with airbags, and rumors of another issue with headrests. They have sold me a lemon and they are not providing a remedy.
My vehicle has an open recall (26v034000) with no remedy available. Combined with another unresolved recall (25v607000), my vehicle has multiple outstanding safety issues with no resolution timeline.
