2024 KIA TELLURIDE Complaints

Found crack in windshield while parked in garage, approximately 8 inches long on passenger side about 6" up from bottom of glass starting at the A pillar. Crack doubled in size by following day. There was no impact, it just cracked in a single line horizontal to the middle of the glass.

The contact owns a 2024 Kia Telluride. The contact stated that all four windows' exterior B-pillar trims had detached. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was determined that the B-pillars needed to be replaced; however, the parts were on backorder. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and confirmed being aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000.

The dashboard will turn black while driving. It will reset after disconnecting the battery, but it will do the same thing a few days later. Also, with cruise control, the car will suddenly slow down on the highway when no vehicles are in front of the car.

When driving with my speed control set at 35 to 45 mph, I will sporadically and without warning get a forward collision warning, and the car brakes. When this occurs, there is absolutely nothing around that should cause this warning.The warning occurs for no reason at all. I took the car to my Kia dealership and also provided them with videos taken at two different times. They kept my car for seven weeks and just returned it to me having done nothing to fix the problem. The reason stated was that the Kia engineers felt that they needed to have the dealer reproduce the problem. Because it is sporadic one, the dealer was not able to reproduce the problem. However, the dealer did acknowledge that I had a problem, but said there was nothing more they could do. The danger is that if someone is following you closely behind and all of a sudden you get this forward collision warning that breaks the car, the car behind has to break suddenly in order to avoid a rear end collision. I have researched online and find that there are other owners of this same car that have had the same problem. I found only one instance where Kia accepted the videos as evidence of the problem, and apparently gave the dealer instructions that when accomplished, seem to have fixed the problem. I have tried to include several videos of these incidents but can’t figure out how to send them to you.

The contact owns a 2024 Kia Telluride. The contact stated that while driving with the vehicle in Snow Mode and depressing the accelerator pedal while making a left turn, the vehicle stopped. The contact stated that after taking the vehicle out of Snow Mode, the vehicle worked as designed. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to the local dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 3,898.

The contact owns a 2024 Kia Telluride. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 40 MPH, he observed a metal trim on the driver's window detached partially. The contact inspected the vehicle and observed a big jagged metal sticking out from the bottom of the driver's window. The vehicle was taken to a dealer twice where the dealer taped the trim, but the failure re-occurred within hours each time. On one occasion while parked, a friend's child ran near the vehicle, was caught by the protruding metal trim, and seriously scratched. Medical attention was not needed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 13,000.

I parked in a covered parking garage for about two hours. When I came out there was a crack about a foot long on my passenger side windshield. The crack quickly spread over the next couple of hours while driving almost double the size. There was not a rock that hit my car and it looks like tiny hold in my windshield very strange looking and then spread quickly. I believe my windshield is defective.

The Brakes on this car had a failure. As the car was approaching a stop, the pedal went to the floor without any notable slowing of the vehicle. Fortunately, there was not a car immediately in front my Telluride or approaching from the side, so there was no impact. The car was then towed to the Robert Brogden Olathe, Kia and inspected. They reported that the ABS light was on and that their was air in the brake line. Using a manual bleeding procedure, the air was removed, but they have not found how their air got into the line during the last mile. Obviously, Root Cause for the air getting into the sealed system must be identified for this car to be considered safe to drive.
