Besides all of the recalls there have been, they now have a faulty navigation system that I need to pay to get the update to fix it. Their system sends you on the wrong routes, and the route may change as you’re going adding hours to your trip. If their system is flawed, why am I paying for it to be fixed?

I purchased a 2024 Kia Telluride less than 3 weeks ago, the AC failed due to road debris damage. There is no protection for the condenser! The will not fix it with the cars bumper to bumper warranty. Also they are unable to provide a loaner car. This is an $1800-$2600 repair. Total scam. Do Not Buy this car or be prepared to get burned. This is a hazard to my young children.

While this car attracted me based on all the tech offered (i had the fully loaded X-line) I regret the purchase and got rid of it about 18 months after purchasing new (drove it only 18,000 miles). In that time I had to turn into body shop because the driver door was rubbing against the front quarter panel and wasn't properly aligned on the production line. Then 2 recalls - one for seat adjustment motor spontaneously combusting (and a warning to not park the car in your garage until fixed) and the other for the cars slipping out of park and rolling away (warning to engage emergency brake until fixed). Then all the exterior trim fell off all around the windows on each side (front and second row) and trim around the back gate. THEN interior trim started falling off - plastic box behind rear view mirror on windshield fell off and the triangular interior piece of trim on the drivers window fell off. Car did not easily pick up on key fob when in proximity to car. Gas mileage sucked at 15-16 mpg. Road noise was awful - people on the phone with me could hear all the bumps through the car phone - loud and awful. Positives? More tech offered than Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander when purchased in late 2023 - heads up display, 2nd row heated and ventilated seats, driver seat leg extender, valet mode, etc. Roomy 3rd row. Leather interior was nice. Never experienced these problems with a Toyota or a Honda especially in the first 18 months - will never buy a KIA again. Dumped it and bought a 2025 Honda Pilot and couldn't be happier!

Gasoline Sensor Failed -Wow!

I bought my Kia Telluride in late March based on reviews after driving a Palisade for 4 years. It now has 1196 miles on the odometer (5/16/2024). A couple of weeks ago I had filled the gas tank when, in the morning two days later, I started the engine and received a warning that the fuel level was dangerously low and I should look for a gas station immediately. Since I had only driven home from the gas station and had not driven it afterwards, I thought that somehow the gasoline had been stolen overnight. Not seeing any damage to the gas cap cover, I figured that somehow the tank had been penetrated and the gasoline stolen. I then drove to the nearest gas station and filled the tank with 4.7 gallons of gasoline and the gas gauge showed full. What the ----? I immediately drove to my dealer service department, reported the issue and a gasoline sensor was ordered. I then made an appt. to have it installed. The service was great, the dealer paid for a Lyft to my home and back to the dealer and my Telluride was washed. What is bothersome is that the sensor failed with less than 1000 miles on the car. This should not have happened to this top-of-the-line Telluride. After reading a number of reviews on this website, I am thinking that I should have done a lot more research before buying.

A good choice, not a perfect vehicle

I have had a 2024 for 5 months and really like it. Solid, comfortable, roomy. There have been a couple of minor recalls that were easily addressed, about the same as my last car, a Honda. I wish the gas mileage was better, but it is OK for a 6 cylinder engine that can tow 500 pounds or more: 22-23 in the city, 27-28 highway. I see the complaints and I am sure that some people have them but reliability (according to a variety of sources) is pretty good, better than Ford or GM, not quite Toyota level.
