When moving over bumpy ground at slow speeds - the brakes donât latch on properly. The entire vehicle shakes and continues to move forward in a bumpy fashion. Never happened to me in any other car and I drive the same routes everyday. Many people are complaining about it online for the Palisade - and it seems like Hyundai has confirmed the issue but isnât fixing it or issuing a recall. Please take action! Service brakes
