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.

I've had the car for less than 6 months, and have been driving in typical situations that are not any different than how I have been driving other cars (regular driver) for over 20 years. I have 3 separate chips in the front windshield from pebbles or unknown causes. One has extended cracks. I've never had a chip in a windshield on another car before this, let alone 3 within the space of a few months.

I have owned this car for two months. Today, I noticed a crack in my windshield. I haven't had anything hit my windshield. I've contacted Kia and am awaiting a call back, but I see online where there are many more complaints about the glass being faulty and cracking for little or no reason.

The windshield has chipped and shattered three times in the less than 6 months I have owned it. All times, I was driving at or below the speed limit. A pebble sized rock shattered the windshield and the other two times, it wasn-??t even noticeably hit, it just cracked. A windshield that is this fragile is not safe in a brand new vehicle.

I don-??t think the windshield is strong enough and it makes me scared to drive in the highways. I-??ve had for less than 4 months and a small rock left a big crack after going 50mph. Already had another small chip since then. These are made terribly and have had other owners tell me the same.

problem #10

Telluride

Purchased vehicle on 2/18/22 and within two weeks, windshield easily cracked with a small rock/pebble kick up in the snow. Several small chips (at least 100) in the windshield causing low visibility in a car that we've only had for 2 months. Several groups of telluride owners report the same problem on 2020-2022 models but Kia is not acknowledging the issue in the 2021/2022 models. Trying to get Kia consumer affairs to show me a statement that proves that Kia has upgraded their 2020 windshield glass (which has been recalled / a part of a class action lawsuit).

Purchased 2022 Telluride SX on 02/14/2022. Today(2/19/2022) noticed a chip/crack on windshield in driver sight. I believe chip/crack happened for no reason. Crack is in drivers sight and it will be a safety concern.
