2024 KIA TELLURIDE Complaints

Dealership (kings Kia in mason, Ohio) failed to respond to nhtsa recall. (SC316). Despite recommendation to “park outside due to risk of vehicle catching on fire” refused to fix recall in timely manner (refused to fix in next 3+ months). Unacceptable.

I was driving my 2024 KIA Telluride when the sunroof just exploded outward. It was very load and luckily I had the sunroof cover closed so no glass came inside the car. Talked with Wilde KIA in Waukesha and they said this was not covered under the warrantee and there where no recalls or safety bulletins regarding this issue. I looked online and there were numerous people that had experienced the same problem.

Dashboard not illuminating when car is turned on. I am able to drive the car without knowing what speed the car is going or how much fuel is remaining. I drove the car two hours turned it off prior to this issue. No warning lights were shown in the previous drive.

The contact owns a 2024 Kia Telluride. The contact received notifications of NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 24V214000 (Power Train) and 24V407000 (Seats); however, the parts to do the recall repairs were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repairs.

The dealer was contacted where the vehicle had remained for approximately 2 1/2 months. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was unknown.

Parts distribution disconnect.

The electronic instrument panel stopped working suddenly. I am unable to see important gauges including speed, gas in the tank, etc...

Upon starting car, display control cluster was black. No visibility of speedometer, turn signals, or any other vehicle control are visible. Restarting vehicle did not correct issue.

I took delivery of my new Telluride on 9/27/2023. On 11/22/2023 I started getting a warning message on my dashboard that my battery was discharging due to external electrical devices. There was nothing on in the vehicle, nor was there anything plugged into the vehicle. This message would come up after the vehicle had been sitting for a number of hours.This message came on on 4 or 5 different occasions. Then on 11/29/2023 my entire dashboard went blank. Nothing would show on it, not even the speedometer. The car was running, and everything else was working fine. I called the dealership where I bought the vehicle and I was able to get it in that day. I picked up the vehicle the next day. It was some sort of computer problem and they were able to fix it quickly. What makes me most irritated is it happened when my vehicle was less than 2 months old. And my son and daughter-in-law also bought a Telluride at the same time as I did, and they just had to bring it in to the dealership for the exact same issue. Two out of two vehicles with that same issue is scary, and very frustrating that we spend that much money on a vehicle and it has these types of computer problems before they are even a year old. Including the safety recall that has been issued for the vehicle, another computer problem.

THE CAR HAS A SURROUND VIEW MONITOR THAT TURNS OFF AT 7 MILES INSTREAD OF THE 9 MILES ADVERTISED. THE MONITOR IS DESIGNED TO HELP WITH PARKING AND SHOW A 3D VIEW. HELPS WITH PARKING ASSISTANCE.

I bought a Kia Telluride on [XXX]. I drove it to Michigan on [XXX]. During the trip, a highway pebble kicked up from the tire of a truck in front of me and hit the windshield. The chip from the rock cracked the windshield from the passenger side to the driver side of the vehicle in a matter of minutes. I researched this Kia Telluride windshield incident via the internet, and there is evidence that it is due to manufacturer negligence. The windshield is defective, and a class action lawsuit has been filed. In 2020, Kia even sent letters to owners offering to correct the problem. The windshield failed and it is available for inspection. The crack in the windshield is a visual impairment for the driver. The problem hasn't been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or mechanic. The vehicle component hasn't been inspected by the manufacturer or others. There were no warning lights or messages.
