2020 HYUNDAI PALISADE — Complaint #2176648
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about SEAT BELTS filed February 13, 2026
NHTSA complaint #2176648 (ODI reference 11717866) concerns a 2020 HYUNDAI PALISADE and was filed on February 13, 2026. The owner reports the failure occurred on September 27, 2024. The report was geocoded to Georgia 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 2020 HYUNDAI PALISADE shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
Engine is sucking the life out of this vehicle meaning it is consuming more than normal oil. Oil consumption, I had the testing done. and Hyundai has done nothing about fixing the issues Well I am the second owner of this vehicle and it should be laws in place for the second owners of a vehicle. The first owner was keeping up on the maintenance of the vehicle so have I. I also have white smoke coming from the tailpipe. as well as stalling and stopping. I am still making payments on this vehicle and it is not far that I have to constantly get oil changes every month or sometimes twice a month seems like it. That is a lot of spending for something that should not be. It is so many people out there going through the same issues. It is a few Facebook group pages made behind this. It's truly sad that Hyundai will not fix this problem. What are we to do? Please Help.
