Hyundai Offers a Fix for the Palisade’s Stinky Leather

The Hog Ring - Hyundai Offers a Fix for the Palisade Stinky Leather

Hyundai finally has a solution to the 2020 Palisade’s leather upholstery, which drivers say stinks like “rotten produce” and “old socks.”

Miles Johnson, the automaker’s spokesman, says they’ve identified the problem in Calligraphy and Limited trims as coming from the Nappa leather-wrapped headrests.

Johnson told Car and Driver that there is a process available at dealerships to neutralize the odor. Customers are advised to bring their cars in for immediate treatment.

Still, it’s not clear if the treatment will work. Cars.com, which was the first to report on the issue, tried the service but ultimately had to replace all of its headrests to keep the stink away.

As for why the leather smells, Hyundai said it’s the fault of a supplier’s manufacturing process. It has since switched suppliers.

    Why didn’t they snag these hides when they arrived at the factory?
    Those hides probably won’t last the test of time as a result of not having been fully washed after tanning.

    For all organinc smells use an Ozone generator, O3 converts back to O2 after 30 mins so is a green, no chemical solution to getting rid of smells in cars ..
