Yes, 2020-2022 Palisade models with the 3.8L V6 are covered by NHTSA recall 22V602 for a low-pressure fuel pump impeller that can deform and cut fuel pressure. Symptoms include rough idle, sputtering, power loss, hard starting, and engine stall with the check engine light. Owners should confirm the recall remedy was done; otherwise an independent repair is about $1,150.
The 2020-2022 Palisade with the 8-speed A8LF1 can exhibit low-speed downshift clunk, shudder from a stop, and hesitation, addressed by Hyundai TSB 21-AT-002H. A dealer fluid flush and adaptation reset is around $325. Ignoring the condition can lead to premature clutch wear and internal transmission damage.
A parasitic draw from infotainment or telematics modules not sleeping is documented in TSB 22-01-019H, with batteries dying after 12-24 months. Symptoms include overnight dead battery, low battery warnings, and lost memory settings. An AGM battery replacement is about $300, while dealer diagnostics and possible module replacement cost more.
Yes, TSB 21-01-023H acknowledges moisture entry through poor seals in LED projector headlamps. You may see droplets or streaks inside the lens after rain or washing, which can lead to yellowing and reduced night visibility. An independent OEM housing replacement runs about $800 per side with labor.
2020-2024 Palisades with the smart liftgate can have a failing actuator motor that stops the gate mid-cycle or prevents response to the fob, button, or handle. This leaves the cargo area inaccessible and can damage the gate if it unlatches but does not rise. Replacement of the OEM actuator assembly is about $675 installed.
