Recall 292

Important Information for 2020-2025 Hyundai Palisade Owners

Hyundai has issued Recall 292 involving Palisade vehicles that may not fully comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 226 regarding ejection mitigation performance.

The recall addresses a potential issue where in specific crash scenarios, including rollover accidents, there may be an increased risk of injury to passengers seated in the third row.

Affected vehicles were produced between April 10, 2019 and June 16, 2025. Approximately 568,576 vehicles in the United States are included in the recall population.

🔧 What’s the Issue?

The issue does not involve a traditional air bag failure. Instead, Hyundai determined that certain design characteristics around the third-row quarter window area may not provide sufficient overall system performance to satisfy all requirements of FMVSS 226, the federal standard governing ejection mitigation protection.

During federal compliance testing, the measured displacement of a test headform in the third-row seating area exceeded the allowable performance limit established by FMVSS 226. Additional testing and engineering analysis confirmed that some vehicles may not fully meet the standard.

What Is the Repair?

To address the issue, Hyundai dealers will:

  • Install a protective safety film on both rear third-row quarter windows.
  • Remove specific foam padding from the headliner on affected vehicles equipped with dual sunroofs.
  • Verify the repair and document completion according to Hyundai recall procedures.

Hyundai states that the protective film works together with the curtain air bag system to improve impact absorption and provide sufficient occupant protection during a collision.
