Problem overview

Some Hyundai Palisade owners report experiencing A/C cooling issues due to a condenser leak caused by rock punctures from road debris. This leak can lead to a loss of refrigerant, significantly reducing the A/C system's cooling performance. To diagnose such leaks, technicians may use fluorescent dye to identify the source under UV light. However, damage from road debris, like a condenser puncture, may not be covered under warranty, resulting in potential out-of-pocket expenses for repairs, which can reach up to $940. While unfortunate, some owners find that being cautious while driving and avoiding debris can help prevent these issues from occurring.
