SEAT BELTS: REAR/OTHER:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY
- The defect
- Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2020-2025 Palisade vehicles. The seat belt buckles in the driver, passenger, and second-row window seats may fail to latch.
- What it can cause
- Seat belt buckles that fail to latch may not properly restrain occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Passengers are advised to insert the belt firmly into the buckle with a quick and direct motion, pulling on the belt to confirm the seat belt is fully secured, until the recall remedy is performed. Dealers will replace the seat belt buckle assemblies, free of charge. Interim notification letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed beginning October 23, 2025. Final remedy owner letters will be mailed in phases, beginning in June 2026 and expected to continue through December 2026. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 283. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on September 13, 2025.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 568,580 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 98% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2025, so the oldest vehicles on it were 5 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Hyundai vehicles have been recalled over the seat belts 17 times before this, most recently in September 2023 as 23V650000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 6 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 2,266 complaints with NHTSA, 1,361 of them before this campaign was filed. 402 of those name the seat belts, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in August 2019, 6 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 11 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V034000 (air bags), 25V291000 (power train), 24V106000 (engine and engine cooling), 23V599000 (air bags).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Hyundai Motor America with NHTSA on September 12, 2025 as campaign 25V607000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
