“Engine rapidly burning oil. Had oil changed as Manufacturer's recommendation, but after exceeding the 100,000 mile warranty and having been 7,000 miles since the last oil change the engine threw a rod and the car stopped while i was driving it. Was told by the Kia Dealer (Fitzgerald Kia in Annapolis) that I needed a $10,000 engine replaced. I am currently working with a lawyer to address this concern.”
NHTSA complaint #11748854, filed 2026-07“Our Kia Telluride caught fire after sitting for about 3 hours. My husband had driven it that day with no issue. After it sat in our driveway for 3 hours, we noticed that it was on fire. The fire started in the back/underneath part of the vehicle. It was a complete loss.”
NHTSA complaint #11713650, filed 2026-01“Driving on the freeway and my sunroof window exploded. It was mid thirty degrees, so the sunroof window was not in use. There was no traffic on the freeway or overpasses, No cars directly in front. We were startled and looked around and heard the noise of broken glass above us. I am planning on taking it into the dealer on Monday. No warning lights or sounds were seen or heard.”
NHTSA complaint #11503037, filed 2023-01“The driver sunroof glass exploded while driving. The shade was closed. It looks as if it exploded inward to outward and may have been a defect in glass. Due to safety, with possible glass shards falling into cabin area, the vehicle has been sitting while I've been dealing with the Kia dealership. I see online reviews where it's happened to multiple Kia owners. This should definitely be a recall.”
NHTSA complaint #11565774, filed 2024-01“Rear windshield spontaneously shattered. Turned on vehicle and shifted from park and as I pulled forward I heard a pop a noticed my whole back windshield just completely shattered. Didn't hit anything or nothing was thrown. Initially looked thought someone may have hit with something or thrown a rock when parked to explain the damage, but security footage does not indicate any such activity and confirmed with police.”
