Models affected	Palisade (LX3)

Defect	Due to a software issue, the second and third-row electric seat-folding mechanism may fail to detect an occupant or object and may not stop the folding function when activated. A folding seat that cannot detect an occupant increases the risk of causing serious injury or death to any occupant in or around the folding seat during activation of walk-in and power-folding seat features of the vehicle.
Remedy	Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted in writing by Hyundai Motor Company Australia asking them to either schedule an appointment with an Authorised Hyundai Dealer as soon as possible to have the software update applied, or if they are registered for BLUELINK to apply the software update over the air, free of charge.
