Buying a used 2020 Hyundai Palisade? Check these 5 recalls first

5 NHTSA recalls · 531 owner complaints on file · 1 park-outside

The 2020 Palisade has 5 recalls in this group. Tow hitch wiring fire risk carries a park-outside instruction; the remaining recalls address side airbags, third-row airbag deployment, windshield wiper motor failure, and seat belt buckles. NHTSA lists 531 owner complaints, which are unverified reports. Engine entries number 128, visibility/wiper 114, and suspension 60. The complaint record includes 13 crashes, 7 fires, and 16 injuries, without establishing that recalled defects caused those outcomes.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Verify tow hitch wiring recall repairs and current park-outside instructions.
3. Confirm both airbag recalls and the seat belt buckle recall are completed.
4. Check wiper operation and request engine and suspension repair records.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
