2023 KIA TELLURIDE Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2023 Kia Telluride has 7 recalls, the most serious being a driveshaft engagement problem that can allow the vehicle to roll away while parked, and a front power seat motor that can overheat and catch fire. On the safety equipment side, second-row side airbags may fail to deploy in a crash due to wiring damage. The wiring harness in the seat cushion assembly can be pinched or cut by the seat frame during folding or adjustment, disabling the airbag. A separate recall covers a manufacturing error where the harness itself may already be damaged, with the same result. In both cases, the airbag warning light may come on as a sign of the problem. Two structural recalls involve exterior trim that can loosen and detach from the doors, sending debris onto the road. Finally, on vehicles equipped with a 4.2-inch digital instrument cluster, the display can go completely blank at startup, hiding tire pressure warnings and other critical alerts from the driver.
