VISIBILITY/WIPER

Potential Consequences:

The windshield on my 2024 Kia Telluride developed a small crack while driving on an highway. There was no construction vehicles in front of us or any construction happening on the road and were driving with significant distance from the vehicle in front. The windshield cracked by itself and upon inspecting the crack it’s clear that the crack was more within the glass instead of an external element. This could be potentially related to the known issue with kia’s defective windshields for model years till 2023. I believe 2024 model year also exhibits the same issue. I request Kia to look into 2024 model years and initiate a recall to replace the defective windshields.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

All 4 windows have an Auto up/down feature on the driver door switches. Intermittently the auto up/down feature does not work on 1 of the 4 windows randomly. If I roll all 4 windows down for example and then decide to roll all 4 up, sometimes 3 out of the 4 windows will roll up auto with 1 touch, and the random 1 window that decides to not roll up automatically will work by holding the button up manually and then resetting it by continuing to hold up while the window is all the up for 3-5 seconds. This fixes it temporarily until the next time. I can not recreate the problem, if I use the key fob and hold the unlock bottom to open all 4 windows, sometimes 3 out of the 4 windows will open and the last one has to be manually reset. The dealership looked at it and reset the window they mentioned, the problem still exists. Could go without an issue for a few days or multiple times a day and it's any of the 4 windows at any time.

Hours later, took a short trip, still no visible signs of damage. 2 hours later, returned to car to find a crack had appeared that went from bottom right corner of windshield to about 1/3 of the way across.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

While driving the digital instrument panel has gone completely black and nothing is showing. In turn making it dangerous as I have no idea how fast I am going, how much gas in the car, etc. The radio side is fine but its just where your old school odometers etc use to be ,back when the world wasn't all digital. I have called and they acted like its the first time they have heard about it , but it seems to be an issue when researching online. From 2022 all the way up to now. I am taking the car in today but wanted to report this as this issue is still an issue with the Kia Telluride.

SEATS

Potential Consequences:

The front passenger power seat folded in on my son while I was driving yesterday without warning. The back rest moved forward causing my son to have to bend over to move with it. At first, the seat would not move but he was able to after a few minutes. I immediately pulled over to ensure there was nothing in the way to cause this to happen, but I did not see anything there. I'm not sure if this is related to the recent recall, but it is a safety risk not only to my passenger but also to me as the driver. I have not had it inspected, and I am available to have it inspected upon request. I called the dealership that I purchased my vehicle from, and they stated that they have no knowledge of this incident happening with any other vehicle.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

I purchased my 2024 Kia LX AWD Telluride on 2/29/24, it had approximately 2,100 miles when my cluster screen went black. This occurred on 5/25/24 without warning. I went to turn my truck on and was unable to read the speedometer, RPM, gas gauge, mileage, and engine temperature. The blindspots warning, or other safety warnings were not working properly. When using the navigation system it wouldn't work properly. It seemed as though it was confused on the direction I was going. I called the dealership where I purchased the vehicle and they were able to get me in for a service repair in 1.5 weeks. Dropped my vehicle off and came back for it a couple hours later. They mentioned the electrical was fine, and could have been that it was loose, and a bump in the road could have caused it. Although, the screen didn't go out while I was driving. They also fixed other items that it has recalls for, such as, radiator cover, and ABS. I was not charged for any of these repairs/services. The dealership was very friendly and responsive.
