Recall Alert: 2026 Hyundai Palisade

by TTAC Staff

Published: March 26th, 2026

Today's recall alert involves the 2026 Hyundai Palisade.

Hyundai is recalling 46,787 units of the 2026 Palisade and Palisade Hybrid in Limited and Calligraphy trims over a fault tied to the third-row seat belt.

According to the filing, wiring inside the driver-side third-row seat belt buckle can become damaged. When that happens, the system may incorrectly show the seat as buckled at all times on the instrument cluster, regardless of whether it actually is.

The issue doesn’t involve the belt physically failing, but it does create a false status reading that could lead to occupants not being properly restrained without the driver realizing it.

To fix it, dealers will install a wiring harness extension and replace the seat belt assembly if needed, at no cost. Hyundai plans to begin notifying owners by mail starting May 18, 2026.

Andarris Here in the Toronto area I haven't seen a 2006-2012 with intact rocker pannels for over two years now. I presume everywhere around the Great Lakes is the same ? They were super cheap dhring the first two years of the pandemic - could get one with less than 85K for around $6500 certified or a little higher mileage for $5000. Glad I skipped it, even in 2021 some of the 10's &11's were displaying corosion like you'd see on a 7 year older Impala, Camry or Accord. Also the mid-model switch to EPS made me balk at the few clean ones I found.

I only fly out of PDX or EUG to LAS or OAK and OGG then back .. have never been delayed in the last ?30-ish? trips to vegas/disneyland/maui/cruise ship vacations....

Michael S6 The 3 Amigos better hope that the oil spike is short lived as 4-5 dollar a gallon gas would put a damper on their cash cows especially "Ford's strategic shift" of killing off the escape/Lincoln cousin. Most other automakers have a full line of vehicles with much better full economy. GM is sucking air and its Cadillac devision is mostly EV and geriatric line up of ICE cars and SUV's that were supposed to be phased out this year. The expensive gas may push shoppers toward EV but GM's horrible EV reliability is a barrier.
Tane94 I read the GM press release about first quarter sales 2026 vs 2025 and Buick is getting its butt kicked:Buick Total* 41,654 61,822 -32.6 The future is bleak for Buick.
