Agreed. I have been to the dealership 3 times now. Each day, I have to work from home and then my wife has to take me back to the dealership at the end of the day. They also leave my car running a lot at the dealership, so I know I am getting ripped off on the gas as well.
There are some folks out there that feel what you are going through aint all that bad...they screwed up the TBS.s and now they are all canceled. One owner said stick a foam rope in the window ,that works better than the TBS....now that is funny...if you want it fixed take to a top notch body shop...that in the end will be the resolve..

Nobody's saying that. What some of us are saying is that Hyundai is actively working on the issue. They went from 0 car in the US at the end of June, when it went on sale, to a TSB for wind noise issue in early November. That's only 4 months to, 1) build up a decent enough population of cars to get feedback from customers (meaning they probably didn't hear about this right away, which makes their response time even faster), 2) figure out 4 possible fixes (emphasis on possible), 3) issue a TSB, 4) modify their supply chain to account for spare parts used for this TSB. All in 4 months.

Now it's pretty clear that they released the TSB quickly, in order to address the most likely causes, before completing their investigation. They did that to make customers happy, instead of waiting for a full investigation to be complete. It appears we're now at that point and that a more permanent fix will be released shortly.

You say they screwed up the TSB, but it did fix the issue on many cars. It did accomplish what it was supposed to do, which is implement fixes that were known. They probably knew they had more work to do, and they've done that.

I understand that people want their fix now and any delay is unacceptable. But this is the real world, and the time it took them to get the first TSB out and all that it entails is actually pretty short. It's very clear that they are working on it.
 
Only Been 2 week i bought SEL fully Package and I have the same issues with Wind noise on Driver side and Passenger side. I am trying to figure out what can be done.
I purchased mine in July. Have had the same issue. When I brought it in they replaced all of the drivers door seals. It did nothing to reduce the noice. I am bring it in tomorrow to see what they tell me thiss time. Have you got any solutions? Thanks,

Dan

Trade it for a 2021 when they come out in eight months....or buy a Toyota..

Or he could pursue a lemon law case, so he isn't out thousands of dollars.

Or just be patient for the fix
 
Did not say dealer said owner...as in used..
Your assertion was this this problem would cost people money when they try sell it. That doesn't seem to be causing the dealers any problems. It's not like this is an issue that shows up with use, it seems to either be there or not.

Allow me to break this down..let's assume an owner with the wind noise issue attempts to sell the vehicle.The potential buyer takes it for a drive..the wind noise is noticed,the sellers response is..trying to find a fix. I would guess some buyers would be turned off. Just a wild hunch.....lol.....or better yet stick some foam in the window..

And yet here we are, discussing fixes for all the buyers who paid over MSRP.

Fixes take time. Hyundai has clearly demonstrated that they're working on it. We are getting far better factory support on this issue than you would get from most brands.

I get that it is frustrating getting a new car and having it not be flawless, but repairs for things like this take some time and there's tons of evidence it is being worked.


The only reasonable recourse if you don't want to wait is to either deal with it or to pursue a lemon law claim.

Providing they actually test drive the vehicle, which the majority of buyers do, for certain a preowned buyer would move on to another vehicle. I certainly would, and in a hurry too.
 
Someone on a Facebook palisade group, said that her wind/whistle noise was fixed. Here is the posted solution.

Someone posted a fix for the whistle/wind noise on a Facebook palisade group. The person said the problem is fix on their vehicle. See attached.

I personally opened a complaint with headquarters and hope that an official TSB comes out with the permanent fix.

I have an appointment at the
Dealership March 5th, if no TSB has been posted by then I will have the service department contact Hyundai HQ directly.

And there it is. Make the gap between interior door mold and window 15/32nd. Let's see how many other people start getting this new fix.

I posted this on the other forum and will share here.

So I never had whistling from my passenger door. I took my Palisade in to dealer because my rear passenger door would not close all the way without a lot of force. They determine the rear door needed a little realigning. The rear door closes like a charm now. However, since then, I have whistling from the front passenger door area whenever I drive above 40mph.

This is crazy... Haven't car doors been opening and closing for a few years now ??? Honestly, every year, car ride quality should be going up. Technology improvements should make my car ride almost silent.

The road noise, wind noise, and the cheap glass they used makes the Palisade drive like a soft top convertible.
