I have an ongoing problem with this vehicle that KIA will not address. My alternator was replaced under warranty last April 30 and when I got it back, the CV boot was leaking grease all over the underside of the car. It took 6 weeks to get them to replace the cv boot (June 14). After that it continued to spray grease all over the underside of my car and there is an increasing amount of vibration going down the road. KIA said they didn't notice a problem when I took it back in August. I took my vehicle to an independent shop who said that at a minimum the front passenger cv axle needed replacement but that there is also a lot of play with the lower center motor mount. KIA did ended up replacing both cv axles when I took it back because at that point I had a significant wobble in the front end when I drive at speeds of 40-60mph. When I got my car back from cv axle replacement the problem was improved but there was still a vibration that has been increasingly worse. I returned my vehicle to KIA in January and they said they don't feel anything in the drive train but that now my tires have worn unevenly and need replacement. My tires were rotated every 6,000 miles and the vibration/wobble contributed to their uneven wear. I have replaced the tires and an alignment has been done, but it the symptoms are worse. Searching through social media and various sources show that the front passenger cv axles are a common issue for the Tellurides and a lot of people are experiencing similar problems. My suspension checks out. All of the obvious things have been ruled out and the required maintenance has been performed. I have had 3 occasions where there was a noise that sounded like something coming apart going down the road. I have concerns that this vehicle is unsafe to drive. I feel that KIA is not going to address this problem unless there is a recall requiring them to do it.

The vigils when turning left or right makes a grumbling sound from the rear or transmission. Took the car to Kia in Huntsville. Al and they keep saying they don-??t hear anything. You can clearly hear it. I have video recording. Seem like they don-??t want to cover what is broken. It could possibly be the transmission case/ coupler because it-??s an AWD. Next I will be filing a law suite.

While idling there is no heat. This is very dangerous in states where it drops below freezing. If I should be able to rely on getting heat but I can not. They called it a -??design flaw-??

Problem started 4-5 months ago and was very intermittent; about 2-3 occurences per month. Problem has become more frequent and become much more severe. When foot is on brake and just coming to stop, engine races to around 6000 rpm. Originally would return to normal rpm in a second or two. Most recent occurences were on Oct. 10 2023, problem manifested 9 times. At stop, engine raced to 6000 rpm and remained there. Some times returned to normal rpm after few seconds, other times shifting to neutral and back to drive caused rpm to normal; 3 times I had to turn off engine. Once when restarting, engine immediately raced back to 6000 rpm and I had to stop engine again. Problem is intermittent so dealer says cannot tackle problem until they can experience problem themselves despite my very detailed description. Vehicle is unsafe to drive. Fortunately so far problem occured with foot on brake pedal so instantly increased brake pressure prevented vehicle from lurching forward into an accident.

Vehicle was parked on level ground in the garage with the transmission in park. Parking brake was not set. I returned home in a different vehicle and checked the clearance on the garage door prior to closing it. It was at this point that I noticed that the garage door (which was previously closed) would not be able to close without hitting the Telluride. The Telluride was not driven, moved, touched or occupied during this brief period. Somewhere between opening the garage door and parking my other vehicle, the Telluride rolled back 1-2 feet. I tried pushing it and confirmed it wouldn't move, but it would have been impossible for the garage door to have opened or closed with the Telluride in the current position. As the garage was closed just before I opened it, and there were not any scratches on the Telluride or garage door, there is no explanation other than the Telluride rolled back. Since that incident, we have been setting the parking brake (manually). I understand the EV6 has a recall for a similar issue. Seems like the Telluride may have a similar problem.

I brought my 2022 Kia Telluride with only 12 miles on it in February 12, 2022. Less than 4 months old and only 4177 miles and my transmission has gone out. The dealership I bought has had it for 20 days now. I am told my vehicle is not safe to drive so it has to at the dealership. I have contacted Kia Customer Service they are advising me that the transmission is on back order and not ETA for it.

I have owned my kia teuride for about 7 months and in those months I have had to bring the car to the dealer 3 separate times for a vibration problem. For each time car was in service for a few weeks. First was told I needed tires balanced and they balanced. 2nd time was told I needed a new driveshaft and they replaced. 3rd time wad told I needed a new awd coupler and it was replaced. I am a disabled father of 3 kids and cannot go back and forth to the dealer all the time when they tell me I can't have a rental car or loaner and then strand me at the dealer 14 miles away from my house. There has to be a better way to help people cause it seems that kia consumer affairs is not even helping

My new AWD 2022 Kia Telluride vibration/ humming at 65 mph and above from day 1. It-??s been in service 5 times and they are not able to fix the problem. The dealership we bought it from didn-??t even admit there is a problem so we had to take it to another dealership which actually admitted there is a problem. They just changed the drive shaft and rear differential and the problem is still there. It-??s been in service longer than it-??s been with me. Very frustrating.
