The Latest Palisade News:

So far this year, Hyundai has sold just over 36,000 Palisade SUVs through June. While beauty is subjective, Hyundai picked a bold, brash design that’s winning converts. However, the smell is hampering the ownership experience for some. We hope Hyundai can quickly identify the problem and issue a fix, which could include replacing upholstery, headrests, or more. We’re sure affected owners are eager for an answer.
