There is a knocking or clunking noise from the rear of the vehicle when driving on bumpy roads at low speeds.

Aug 31, 2023SuspensionTransmission & drivetrain

When turning slowly or going over bumps at a lower speed, a thud or pop can be heard from the rear, which could be the shocks or struts in the rear. On a luxury vehicle, with this low of miles, these shouldn't need replacement so quickly. No warning lights or messages.

I PURCHASED A PALISADE 2021 LIMITED AWD TRIM FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP ON 12/01/2020 NIGHT. I TEST DROVE A DIFFERENT PALISADE, BUT PURCHASED THIS SPECIFIC PALISADE AS WE WERE LOOKING FOR A BEIGE INTERIOR. WE DROVE THE NEW PALISADE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON THE HIGHWAY ON 12/06/2020. IT VIBRATES AND RUMBLES ON THE HIGHWAY. IT MOSTLY COMES FROM THE REAR SUSPICION. 1) IT CONSTANTLY SHAKES AND RUMBLES WITH CONSTANT VIBRATION 2) THE SUSPICION ALMOST FEELS LIKE SEATING ON LOOSE SPRING AND CAUSES THE LOWER PORTIONS OF THE CAR TO SHAKE UP & DOWN CONSTANTLY WITH HIGH FREQUENCY. IT MAKES EVERYONE IN THE CAR SEVERELY MOTION SICK WITH LESS THAN 50 MILES OF ROAD TRIP. IT SOUNDS LIKE PALISADE 2021 LIMITED INHERITED THE VIBRATION PROBLEM FROM PALISADE 2020 [AS DESCRIBED IN TSB # 19-SS-003H].

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2021 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid Hev verdict →
