Design left a lot to be desired
For Calligraphy trim, I wanted to feel more than just "meh" about it. I wasn't impressed and only 1 year later I traded in the Pallisade to go back to a Telluride SX. My first disappointment was the dash and cluster. No weather themed clusters like the Telluride, and other elements seemed less thoughtfully designed. It was less accommodating for shorter, smaller people. For example, the screen dash didn't have any curve, making the reach from the driver seat more awkward. The seat randomly squeezes your sides, I guess for posture relief, but it didn't close in enough for me to feel it. The leg rest at the front was very uncomfortable as well. It also lacked common sense design in some areas, too. Instead of a sunglasses holder in the roof, I got a reflective mirror to spy on passengers. (Where am I to keep sunglasses so I can at least be discreet when spying?) Storage wasn't prioritized, but maybe the retractable cupholders were supposed to make up for that. One thing that drove me up the wall was the dinging that occurs when someone unbuckles mid-drive wouldnt stop even if put into park or buckles reconnected. It would still be going off by the time I reached the other side of the school parking lot after dropping off my kids. The front seat cooler didn't work, and when I went to the dealership for a repair, I was told it works fine and if it didn't work it was my fault or that I wasn't big enough to feel it. (Come on, I'm not THAT small. And I know I'm just a girl but how can I mess up turning on a seat cooler with 1 button? I passed kindergarten successfully, after all.) There were a plethora of little things like that which individually are no big deal, but when added up, made it less than a sensational drive.
