Just noticed this deal at local Costco.

1- Wanted to get an input from people who have purchased Palli Cali recently in wanted to find out how do you guys evaluate this deal?

2- What other manufacturer to customer incentives can be combined with this deal in summer 2026?

3 - Those who have used Costco auto program in past, were you / and how able to make the dealers even make the deal sweeter than what it is right now?

Lift gate will automatically close but never latch. It just “bounces” until it beeps and has to be manually lifted open. It takes a good amount of force to be put on it to help support it in closing to get it to latch. I have inspected all the weather stripping and made sure there is nothing blocking. I have done the auto reset pushing both buttons at the same time to reset the lift gate. Nothing seems to work.
Just seeing if anyone else has had this happen and knows a fix. I really don’t feel like dealing with the dealership already.

It started to go out before the last software update, and since the last update it just died. Is this something that can be done without going to the dealer, or do I need to get this serviced under warranty?

Got a decent deal and loving it

Wife and I - we both have Profiles set up - get in the car. Turn car on, buckle up, settle in, put the phone on the charger plate … CRAP, my wife’s profile comes up (she drove it last) with the “Confirm” prompt.

No, I don’t want to confirm! I want to switch to MY profile for so many reasons. NOPE! Can’t do anything but Confirm her’s, or turn the car off, open & close the door, restart the car and PAY ATTENTION to the Profiles, pick mine, then wait a few more seconds to Confirm.

It would be so nice to be able to switch profiles easier. Sure, cant do while driving, else seats, mirrors, heads up etc etc all go catawampus.

/rant off
Yeah 1st world problems but c’mon. Or is there an easier way.

Does the app have the same functionality as the key such as opening/closing windows, parking, etc?

I don’t seem to be able to find it or set it up.

Wheres my remote start/stop options???

Title. The manual and other paperwork / books that come with the Palisade (‘26 Pali Cali) doesn’t fit in the glove compartment. Where are you keeping them?

So I'm looking at either the SEL Premium Hybrid, since its a great cost / options ratio, or the Cali Hybrid.

I'd like to hear from the Cali owners what things they love about their Cali, mainly just the things that are exclusive to that trim.

I just got a new 2026 Palisade Calligraphy Hybrid. When doing the checkout with the sales rep neither of us could find the button that shuts off the Idle Stop and Go (looks like a letter A inside a circle, just like the US Third Army should patch from WW2...but I digress).

<img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/71/United_States_Army_Central_CSIB.svg" alt="United States Army Central - Wikipedia"/>Anyway, it's supposed to be in the button cluster neaer the driver's left knee. But not in mine.

The only thing we could figure is that the Hybrid doesn't allow you to shut off the ISG.

So am I nuts or did the factory really screw up? The user manual didn't help.

Looking for some family vehicle advice.

Current family:

- Me

- My wife

- 2-year-old son

- 8-year-old stepson (with us about 50% of the time)

We're also actively trying for a second child, so I'm trying to plan ahead rather than wait until we're in a rush.

Current vehicles:

- Honda Accord (paid off)

- 2024 Hyundai Palisade

I'm considering the following as a replacement for my Accord:

- 2025/2026 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid

- 2026 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid

- 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid

- 2026 Kia Carnival Hybrid

I'm struggling with how to objectively compare them beyond:

- Appearance

- Powertrain

- Purchase price

Things that matter to us:

- Reliability

- Fuel economy

- Long-term ownership (likely 8-10+ years)

- Comfort on road trips

- Cargo space for family travel

- Ease of living with multiple kids/car seats

- Technology and safety features

- Overall value

For those who have owned or cross-shopped any of these vehicles, what would you choose and why?

If you were in my situation (family of 4 now, likely family of 5 in the near future), which vehicle would you buy and what factors would push you in that direction?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Coming back from Tennessee to Louisiana I averaged 70mph with some drafting of big rigs up to 75 on cruise. we stopped once for gas with the last 100 miles to go. used smart cruise with aggressive acceleration almost the entire time. I was actually very impressed with how well a 4800lb vehicle did with gas mileage. at some points when I was stuck at 65mph I was averaging 34mpg. 30.3 of 90 percent highway driving above 65 is a win in my book. This was loaded with bags and gear in the third row area and my two kids.

edited. It’s a hybrid AWD Should have added that.

I can’t seem to find any specific documentation that states you are able to purchase the extended warranty options on a lease vehicle. Can you? And can you after purchase? My friend has a 2024 Santa Fe with 13k miles on it. She’s had 2 flats already. Is she able to purchase a tire protection plan now?

I made a recent post about driving cross country with my 2026 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy AWD hybrid.

A few folks privately messaged me asking if I could take a picture with the Thule Motion 3 XL rooftop box opened up, and so here‘s my stack: five 4-wheel carry-on suitcases, a 3-step stepladder, and some knick-knacks like a DeWalt air inflator and packable outdoor blanket.

Hybrid SEL… first new car since 2010

Has anyone purchased any for their Palisade 2026? If you did, which one did you get and how does it do with noise?

The OEM ones are 300-500$ and the Amazon’s are 120. While you might get what you pay for, most of the time the OEM is just not worth it

Downloaded the free FIFA theme today.

2026 Palisade Hybrid Calligraphy, what’s this key emblem for in the cup holder? Looks to be the same shape as the key fob.

Have a '23 Calli and like the look of silver roof bars than the black ones.

Any suggestions on where to buy?

Anyone from Hyundai or buyers know what car of there's is leasing out the best in the NY-NJ areas for a low monthly payment?

I have a 26 calligraphy

Have 26PaliCalu with the V6 and I went to the dealer to get an oil change at 4k and found out about the recall on the wiring for the 3rd row seats. Waited only 1.5 hrs for the oil change and wiring recall but had no idea about this recall until this morning. What was this recall?

I sent an email to Konrad at Burlington, but while i wait.... I feel like having some peace of mind for 10 yrs is worth it, but maybe not for $2500. To be fair, I negotiated down from $4000, but after further research, it seems like $2500 is still too much?
