VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
While driving in snowy conditions my windshield wipers failed to work. They were working and then about 15 minutes in to my drive they stopped working. I had to pull off the side of the interstate with semi trucks flying by to pick the compacted snow out. It did not work and I slowly and very carefully had to continue until I was able to make it home and they were able to thaw.

Hyundai Motor America
Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
While driving in "snow mode" and starting from stop and going into turn, vehicle accelerated for few feet and then it stalled, basically the engine was ON but lost torque to wheels. Vehicle would start moving as soon as I change the drive mode to any other than snow mode. This happened few times and all times vehicle was in snow mode. Once even when the payment was dry but driving in snow mode. It has never happened in other drive modes. Luckily there was no incoming or side traffic or I could have ran into by other vehicles. A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. I googled and many others with 2023 have similar experience. Hyundai need to fix it.

Defect Description:
VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR
Potential Consequences:
In direct sunlight exposure, the second row windows are cloudy/hazy, which hinders visibility while driving. The effect is noticed for both the driver and passenger side second row windows, but is much more prevalent for the side that is in direct sunlight. There is a significant clarity difference when compared to the third row windows (also tinted, but without the acoustic glass). Looking at various websites and forums, this appears to be a common defect for 2023 Palisades.
