Driving down the 35 mph part of hwy 130 yesterday, a lone car passed going the other direction. I heard a small "smack" of a small rock hitting my windshied. I looked at it 3 minutes later, and it was about the size of a dime. I resumed driving and arrived at my destination. Came out 1 hour later, and the crack had spread by 4-5 inches. Temperature was 65 degrees. This windshield seems extremely fragile. Now I've called to get a replacement - they are only available through dealers and cost $750. Will the new ones be more durable?

Windshield was damaged beyond repair at only 250 miles. Replacement windshield took 6 weeks. Glass seems to be thin or more prone to damage. Vehicle was traveling at approximately 45 mph on a two-lane road and was hit by some sort of debris from a vehicle going in the opposite direction. Did not see the debris before it struck the window.

I had a small rock hit my windshield from road grading. It was a normal chip, not unlike any that I have had on other vehicles. I called to make an appointment the next day to have it filled to prevent spreading. Leaving work the next day, the windshield had actually cracked from top to bottom and to the left, in an L shape. So, my chip repair became a full windshield replacement. I have now been waiting 3+ weeks for a replacement as they are not available. My auto glass place has had one on order from overseas since that next day. So, 4-6 weeks to replace a windshield that truly should not have broken as the chip was no different than any other chip we get in vehicles. I actually tried to have the replacement done by my Kia dealership. The service department said there were none available in the us and good luck finding one, they were unable to help. When I called today to inquire about having the cameras re calibrated post the replacement, I was told that if a non-Kia approved windshield is put in, I would void my warranty. So, beyond waiting weeks on end to have a broken windshield replaced, being told 'good luck' finding one and too bad, they can't help me, I am now being told I "may" have my warranty voided having it replaced elsewhere, even though they refused to assist.

Small rock hit the windshield from a passing car on the highway caused a chip in the windshield, when safelite tried to repair it, it crack. Service tech said that it is highly unusual for this to happen on a small chip like this one.

Purchased this vehicle and have under 2000 miles, the vehicles windshield has received three chips and seems to be weak (thin) glass. I'm afraid if struck while driving with an object other than a small pebble it'll fail and place my families life in danger. The wiper sprayer on the drivers side window when driving fails to spray over the drivers view. It pools at the lower part of the wiper blade and lower left corner of the window at road and hwy speeds. This causes excess amounts of fluid to be sprayed in order to clean the window. The chips on the window are small and two are in the drivers view. I've had the spray tip replaced at the dealer but it continues the same pattern.

On July 4 I notice a chip on right of windshield without noticing anything hitting the windshield as I was driving. Three days later it became a crack without touching and in a week the crack reach driver side. Windshield still on backorder. I reported to Kia customer service and somebody on NHTSA call me and told me that crack can happen that if I put a new windshield and same thing happens in less than 3 month then they will look into it. This windshields are not cheap and I have never had a windshield braking so fast before in less than 3 month of purchase.

Three days after we purchased a 2020 Telluride I found a cracked in the bottom center of the windshield. I couldn't find any chip that might have started the crack, it just appeared the next morning. The car was parked under the carport so nothing could have fallen on the windshield. Contacted the dealer and they were no help at all, insurance had to pay. Safelite auto glass had to wait eight weeks for Kia to ship a new windshield. I asked the installer to look at the crack area and see if he could find a cause that would start this crack. He explained to me that any rock or foreign object strike will leave an indentation with some spider marks, he found none" his prognosis was, it was struck on the bottom edge when assembled and closing the door hard would flex the windshield and that started the crack. It has been one month and I already have another small chip. I have replaced one windshield in forty something years, doesn't very look good for Telluride owners, something is wrong"

While driving my 2020 Telluride I heard an odd sound on the passenger side of the vehicle and noticed a small crack developing on the passenger side of windshield. It started from about midway heading horizontally and then made a curve upward as I drove. The crack is at least 18 inches long. There is no visible damage or markings of anything hitting the windshield nor did I notice anything strike the windshield. The crack originates underneath the molding and appears to be a defect. When the crack started I was traveling on a city street at around 30 miles an hour with no traffic around.

Windshield struck (minor with minimal depth penetration) by material running on interstate. Within 15 minutes, crack began and was over 16". vehicle parked for 8 days. Windshield has crack over 3' long now. Windshield star should've been quick easy fix instead the windshield is either faulty or installed in bind.

While driving down the highway going maybe 45 mph, something flew up and hit the windshield causing a large chip and spiderweb to form immediately. Whatever hit the windshield was so small I never saw it. This has happened plenty of other times in other vehicles without causing any damage.

- Perryville, AR, USA

Driving on a city street, I noticed a tiny crack coming down from the top of my windshield. By the time I got home (10 minutes), it was spread across the entirety of my windshield. I'be been waiting since June for a replacement windshield.

This is my second report. My windshield on my 2020 Kia Telluride is cracked again. This time it's on the passenger side of the windshield. It's a long crack that starts at the a pillar and travels across the windshield. When I got in my car to go somewhere I saw the crack. I am the only driver. I never saw or heard anything hit the windshield this time. It cost 1500 dollars to repair it last time, which was four months ago.its going to get expensive if this keeps up. I have no idea how this occurred.

The windshield had a deep chip and it spiderwebbed out. The windshield was replaced. On 09072019 I got into my Kia and on the passenger side a large crack is visible from the a pillar about 10 inches long. I never heard or saw anything hot the windshield. I am the only driver. It will have to be replaced again.

It seems as if the windshields on the Kia Telluride are sub par. There is an abundance of cracked windshields with this very new car, more than average. My own windshield obtained a starburst crack right in the line of vision for the driver. Being in Alaska, I expect this to quickly spread. We heard a small tap prior to the windshield cracking while we were driving. Maybe something to look into.

After owning the vehicle for just two months, while driving on the highway a small particle struck the windshield and made a chip the size of a nickel. A few miles down the highway the same incident happened making a crack that is spidering the size of a half dollar. Spoke with the Kia dealer to report the issue. They do not have any windshield recalls at this time.

- Parrish, FL, USA

Cracked windshield. A pebble hit to windshield just below the front facing camera at 75 mph speed. No immediate crack, only chip. Car parked outside at Texas heat (+100F) and crack spread almost through windshield within 48 H.

- Sugar Land, TX, USA

Vehicle is 3 weeks old and next week we'll be having the 3rd windshield installed. The original and first replacement were damaged by rocks being thrown up by semi trucks while driving on the interstate. Previously owned a Kia sorento and had a replacement windshield installed and had 3 rock chips on the replacement when it was traded for the Telluride. Seems as if the Kia windshields are somehow inferior.
