VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD

Potential Consequences:

Cracked windshield developed within hours and it was sitting in the driveway. I have not had this vehicle for more than 30 days only to find out this is a MAJOR issue I have to jump through hoops to fix. I was sold Ownershield (and sent them photos for review) and was told when sold that product that I could get the KIA windsheild replaced with KIA parts (they knew this would happen). But today I was informed by Ownershield that if I were to use Safelite my claim may not be covered...what a SCAM! It is like a sideways J, right in the middle of the windshield so it is messing with my visibility and is unsafe. No warning of anykind given even after starting up the car. KIA needs accountability on fixing these issues especially with theybare tacking on additional fees for 'shortages'.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Upon starting my vehicle morning of 6/16/22 the LCD CLUSTER DISPLAY showed “system check” with the scan of the picture of the SUV then screen went to black. I attempted to restart the vehicle and it did the same thing. I took the vehicle directly to dealer and rep saw the blank display. In addition apple car play stopped working. On 6/20 rep informed me that everything was working and tech was unable to duplicate the problem. There’s obviously something faulty with the vehicle. The car has less than 5500 miles and dealer said since they were unable to duplicate the problem there’s nothing to repair but if it happens again to take it back in. This issue prevents me from being able to see odometer and if I have to wait for a tech to get around to looking at it I risk the chance of the problem temporarily fixing itself before the tech looks at it.

SEAT BELTS

Potential Consequences:

Driver’s (left front) Seatbelt Tongue is sometimes difficult to fully insert into the Seatbelt Buckle. Even worse, sometimes it appears to be inserted, but it is not fully engaged/locked. I’ve inspected buckle and there does not appear to be any debris. Fully pressing the release button on the buckle BEFORE inserting the tongue seems to alleviate the issue. Next time I bring car to dealer, I will have them inspect/diagnose/replace.

VISIBILITY/WIPER

Potential Consequences:

Windshield. Windshield was chipped by a flying rock or piece of debris on the right side just at the edge on February 14, 2022. Within one to two weeks a crack had formed and went two-thirds of the way across the windshield in the view of the driver. Windshield was repaired on March 31, 2022. On April 13, 2022, less than two weeks from the replacement, a flying rock hit the windshield and caused a chip at the very bottom of the middle of the windshield. Within two weeks the chip had formed a crack and went half way up the windshield, turned, and went almost all the way across the passenger side of the windshield - in the view of the passenger. it appears many Kia owners have had the same issue with small chips causing extreme cracks in the windshield which resulted in having to replace the windshields numerous times.

Potential Consequences:

Purchased 2022 Telluride Nightfall EX end of August and at the beginning of March and within about 6000 miles a small rock kicked up from a car caused a chip which spread to a large crack the next day. Dealership would not replace due to chip that wasn’t even visible as it was in lower passenger corner of black area. Glad I purchased all the extra coverages offered by the dealer and paid more than MSRP due to an unsolicited dealer fee!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL

Potential Consequences:

Instrument panel is not functioning, vehicle is currently at service center waiting for replacement part to determine if this will correct all issues which includes gear shift light indicator not working, voice command stating “turn around you are entering the wrong way” randomly while driving and the instrument panel. Initially the instrument panel screen would alternate between working fine to intermittently being partly or fully snowy before it would go completely dark. This pattern continued until mid May when it went completely dark and has stayed this way. Although there is no recall at this time on my specific vehicle I’m concerned that this ongoing issue could potentially caused me harm while driving.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

After taking my car back to the dealership and speaking to KIA USA about my instrument panel going blank randomly, now my blinker arrow lights have stopped working randomly. This is a safety issue even more than the instrument panel because my blinker can be on without me being aware, which could lead to another car pulling out in front of me if they assume I am turning. I was driving for a while today before I realized that my blinker panel lights had turned off and I had been driving with the blinker on. This occurrence has happened twice now within the last week.

Defect Description:

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

Sunroof, available for inspection but scheduled for repair. Sunroof exploded spontaneously, no vehicle in front and no foreign object found that could have caused explosion damage. I calmly move vehicle off road into parking lot. Explosion was so loud that someone else could have reacted differently and caused an accident. I've read and heard of other incidents where people report the same situation. Insurance has been active in resolving this incident. I've also contacted the Kia dealership and Kia USA. No warning was given before this happened. I do not have at this time have an insurance claim number, response from manufacturer or repair invoice.

Corrective Action:
