VISIBILITY/WIPER
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.

CHIP AND CRACK IN WINDSHIELD. UNSURE WHEN IT OCCURRED, BUT I NEVER HEARD SOMETHING HIT WINDSHIELD. MOST LIKELY IT HAPPENED WHILE CAR WAS PARKED IN PARKING LOT.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND DID NOT EVEN HEAR OR SEE ANYTHING HIT THE WINDSHIELD. IF IT DID IT WAS MINOR AND SHOULD NOT HAVE CAUSED THE DAMAGE OF A CRACK THAT SPREAD ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE DRIVEN A 2018 FORD EXPLORER , 2016 GMC YUKON, AND 2019 GMC ACADIA WHEN SOMETHING HAD HIT THE WINDSHIELD THAT CAN BE SEEN AND HEARD WITH BARELY ANY DAMAGE OR DAMAGE THAT IS SIMPLY FILLED/SEALED. PLEASE REVIEW TO SEE IF OTHER COMPLAINTS SIMILAR TO THIS ARE IN THE DATABASE FOR THIS NEW ENTRY 2020 KIA TELLURIDE. I LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT THIS VEHICLE BUT THIS. THEY ALSO STATED IT WOULD BE 2-8 WEEKS BEFORE A WINDSHIELD WILL BE AVAILABLE TO INSTALL FROM KIA.

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY TODAY, A SMALL ROCK CAME UP AND HIT MY WINDSHIELD. IT WAS VERY SMALL AND SHOULD NOT HAVE DAMAGED MY WINDSHIELD. I ENDED UP WITH A LARGE CRACK IN MY WINDSHIELD.

SMALL PEBBLE HIT CAR WINDSHEILD ON TOP LEFT CORNER. PLANNING ON PULLING OVER TO ACCESS SITUATION. THEN NOTICE A CRACK THAT WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL IT REACHED THE REVIEW MIRROR. I CALLED KIA CORPORATE TO REPORT AND THEY ARE AWARE THAT THE 2020 TELLURIDE ARE HAVING WINDSHIELD CRACKING PROBLEMS BUT WILL NOT REPAIR IF CAUSED BY PEBBLE. ONLY IF STRESS CRACK. I HAVE HEARD OF TO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE 2020 TELLURIDE WINDSHIELD AND THINK THEY NEED TO INVESTIGATE ISSUE FURTHER FOR SAFETY REASONS.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE GLASS QUALITY/DESIGN. IN THE FIRST TWO WEEKS (5/13/19) MY RIGHT PASSENGER WINDOW CRACKED. I DID HEAR A VERY SLIGHT SOUND (LIKE A WATER BOTTLE EXPANDING) BUT DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING. WITHIN AN HOUR, THE CRACK OCCURRED. THERE WAS A VERY SMALL 'DING' BUT CONTINUED TO BREAK. I REPAIRED IT WITH MY INSURANCE. ON 7/16 I PARKED AT WORK AS USUAL. WHEN I RETURNED TO MY CAR, MY FRONT WINDSHIELD HAD A 6-7 INCH CRACK. I COULD NOT SEE AN IMPACT SITE. THE CRACK IS UP AROUND 10 HIGH AND NOW SPLITTING TO THE LEFT ACROSS. WE WERE ABLE TO SEE WHAT AMOUNTS TO A 'SCRATCH' TO THE TOUCH. IT IS NO LARGER THAN THE TIP OF A SHARP PENCIL. I UNDERSTAND DEBRIS HITTING GLASS MAY RENDER A CRACK, BUT TO THIS DEGREE SEEMS TO BE A BIGGER ISSUE I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE QUALITY AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE HAD THESE TWO ISSUES WITH VERY LITTLE IMPACT TO THE GLASS. IN PREVIOUS CARS I HAVE HAD HUGE ROCKS HIT AND ENDED UP WITH SCRATCHED/DINGED GLASS. WITHOUT SHATTERS, CRACKS. I RESEARCHED MANY WEBSITES AND DEALERS AND I AM SEEING THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE.

ONLY HAD OUR CAR10 DAYS. 1ST ROAD TRIP AND A RICK POPPED UP AND HIT THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS AND NOT HAD THIS HAPPEN. WITHIN 10 MINS OF THE SUN. IT SPREAD ACROSS ENTIRE WINDSHIELD. TO HAVE PAID THIS MUCH FOR A BRAND NEW CAR AND HEARD THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE... IT HAS GOT TO BE RESOLVED. COMPLETELY SO SICKENING.

WE BOUGHT OUR 2020 KIA TELLURIDE 7-3-2019 & ON 7-11-2019 OUR WINDSHIELD BROKE FROM A SMALL ROCK WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH TODAY FROM A PASSING CAR. I HAVE HEARD OF 100S OF OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THESE INFERIOR WINDSHIELD WINDOWS WITH POOR UNSAFE PRODUCTION.

STRUCTURE:BODY
BRAND NEW 2020 KIA TELLURIDE PURCHASED ON 3/18/19. ON 4/6/19 THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN AT 1273 MILES. TOOK IT TO KIA DEALERSHIP GARAGE ON 4/8/19 AND THEY COULD NOT FIX IT. I FILED A FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH CORPORATE KIA ON 4/9/19. NO ONE IS CALLING ME BACK. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE A CAR WITH A DOOR THAT WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE.

SEATS
WHILE TEST DRIVING THE VEHICLE WE ACCELERATED THE VEHICLE AND HEARD A YELL FROM MY CHILDREN IN THE BACK ROW "THE SEAT IS CRUSHING THE BABY!". OUR 5 MONTH BABY WAS STRAPPED IN THE MIDDLE SEAT CENTER ROW AND THE BACK PART OF THE SEATS FOLDED FORWARD DISLODGING THE REAR FACING CAR SEAT AND TIPPING IT UPWARD A BIT. I HAD TO EMERGENCY STOP THE VEHICLE IN MID TRAFFIC, UNBUCKLE AND CRAWL IN THE BACK SEAT TO PUSH THE SEAT BACK OFF OF MY BABY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR SURE. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE CHILDREN IN THE BACK ROW PUSHED THE SEAT RETRACT BUTTON WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING OR THE SEAT WAS NOT LOCKED BACK IN POSITION AFTER THIRD ROW ONBOARDING DUE TO MECHANICAL FAILURE OR HUMAN ERROR. PLEASE INVESTIGATE BEFORE CHILDREN ARE INJURED OR KILLED.
