Defect Description:
BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
Potential Consequences:
On multiple occasions, the automatic braking has engaged while reversing even though there has been no risk of collision. It has happened with no cars, pedestrians, or other obstacles in sight. The brakes engage suddenly and with no warning causing the car to come to a violent stop. In one case it happened while reversing off a main road into our driveway. The sudden and unnecessary stop meant that the front of car was jutting into the main road with oncoming traffic. In other cases, it has just caused immediate unnecessary concern that we have hit something. It is possible to disable this functionality but the setting cannot be saved - so it needs to be disabled every time you turn on the car. We have engaged with the dealer and with KIA directly and neither have offered any solution to the problem. The suggestion seems to be that this is normal behavior for the car. From my perspective this is a defective system and is dangerous. At a minimum, it should be possible to disable it completely.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
There is a design defect in my 2024 Kia Telluride. There is no protection for the condenser/radiator. My air conditioner did not work. Brought it to dealer, dealer said a foreign object penetrated the condenser. I asked how it happened, dealer said there is no protection for the radiator or condenser so this problem may happen again and again. Kia does not offer a screen to be installed in front of condenser/radiator. My bill to repair was $2,400. Plus car rental of $100.. I have Asthma and it was almost impossible for me to drive the 200 miles to get the car to service. I contacted Kia claim # 16235056 and was told they will not help.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I went into the dealership to have the air condition system looked at because on 2/27/2024, the weather was warm enough to have the ac on while driving home. The ac was not working as far as cooling, it was just blowing hot air. No indication of any issue with the coolant system at all. I call and make an appointment to the dealership to have this looked at on 3/02/2024 and they said that the condenser was damaged. They said that they thought it might be from debris from the road, I said at that point I believe it to be a defect on design. They gave a song and dance in regards to my logic but then did say that KIA is aware of the issue but it doesn't happen to much. I have also checked to see if this was and is a design problem, seeing that this particular issue has been going on for several years it should be corrected. This item and the rest of the front of the vehicle go through a lot of stuff over it's time on the road or off-road. Which brings up the other issue that this is an off-road SUV made to not be on regular road conditions whatever they are. This SUV has never been off-road and I have not done anything to the vehicle to cause this issue. It is a design defect and needs to be corrected.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
VEHICLE has 650 miles now. It was leased from Kia. I noticed the brakes fading when at a long stop light or stop sign. Vehicle would start to roll/creep forward and brake pedal would drop slightly. The longer the stop light the more this would happen. When this happened as I was parking I left the vehicle and called the Kia help number and had the vehicle transported to Kia dealership. This was 10JAN2024. The dealership notified me that the could find no problem. I picked the vehicle up and drove home. The same problem occurred and I had the vehicle transported to the dealership. They replaced the brake master cylinder and ABS module. They notified me it was repaired. When I check the brakes the pedal still slowly went down. I refused to take the vehicle and left it at the dealership. The vehicle had been at the dealership for over 30 days before they notified me it was repaired.

SEAT BELTS
Potential Consequences:
Incident 1: Seatbelt was fastened as I returned from picking a child up from school. As we turned into our driveway my seatbelt unlatched unexpectedly. In addition, none of the warnings sounded that typically notify you when someone has taken off their seatbelt prematurely. Incident 2: I was pulling onto a main road from a side road when my seatbelt unlatched. None of the safety warning sounds came on. In both situations there was nothing near my seatbelt that could have accidentally depressed the button (and if there had been there should have been a seatbelt warning). Both incidents occurred close to or as I was making a right turn at slow speed.

Potential Consequences:
Vehicle has 6k miles. Upon starting for the evening commute, dashboard is blank screen - will not give speedometer, odometer readings or fuel levels. Other lights on gearshifter not working. GPS not reading correctly. Blind spot detection not functioning. Can get the screen to display the brightness indicator, but that refuses to leave the display, even when car turned off - assumedly a drain on the battery. This left us unable to identify our speed or how much fuel we had. The dealership indicated that this problem was seen in 2022 Tellurides and was typically fixed by a reset + system update. The dealership did fix the problem, but not sure of what the root cause is.
