Telluride

  • 684 miles
We bought a 2024 Kia Telluride and had it literally 2 weeks long with about 684 miles. My husband and I were driving on a major highway and suddenly we hear a noise and engine line pops up on screen. Car proceeds to literally shut off, the wheel locked up, and we barely made it to shoulder of highway. This was huge safety issue, we had cars honking and speeding by us at 70+. We called the Kia roadside assistance who didn-??t get a tow truck there till 3 hours later. We don-??t have anything paper wise yet from the service department. They called and said engine was seized and needing replacement. We are very concerned about getting new engine that could potentially do this again.
