2025 HYUNDAI PALISADE — Complaint #2176643
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about SEAT BELTS filed February 13, 2026
NHTSA complaint #2176643 (ODI reference 11717864) concerns a 2025 HYUNDAI PALISADE and was filed on February 13, 2026. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 15, 2025. The report was geocoded to New York based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as seat belts, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same HYUNDAI PALISADE cohort independently describe similar seat belts failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2025 HYUNDAI PALISADE shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
I am writing to formally report Hyundaiâs failure to remedy Safety Recall 25V607 involving defective first and second-row seatbelts in our 2025 Hyundai Palisade. The recall was issued in September 2025 and stated no remedy was yet available but the vehicle remained safe if belts were checked after fastening. In December 2025, the front passenger seatbelt in our vehicle began unlatching while driving at highway speeds, even after confirming proper engagement as instructed by Hyundai. We have repeatedly contacted Hyundai of 110 (Farmingdale, NY) regarding remedy availability. A remedy became available in early December, and we were put on the dealership's list to order parts from Hyundai directly on December 30, but the parts still continue to be on backorder. We have minor children who must now rely on seatbelt-based car seat installation due to weight limits on LATCH. This is our only vehicle and it is virtually unusable at this point because I cannot in good conscience put my child
