Description of Problem: Component/System: Windshield Failure/Malfunction: The windshield on my 2022 KIA Telluride developed a 6-inch crack that rapidly expanded to approximately 27 inches over the course of one night while the vehicle was parked in my garage. The crack appeared without any visible external impact or cause. Safety Risk: The sudden and significant expansion of the crack compromises the structural integrity of the windshield, posing potential safety risks for the driver and passengers, including impaired visibility and reduced impact protection. Confirmation/Reproduction: While the issue has not yet been confirmed or reproduced by a dealer or independent service center, I have found numerous online complaints from other KIA Telluride owners experiencing similar issues with their windshields cracking without apparent reason or after minor impacts such as small stones. Inspection: The vehicle and component have not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or any other parties at this time. Warning Symptoms: There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms prior to the crack’s appearance.

A small rock hit my windshield on my way to work but did not initially appear to cause damage. Upon arriving at work I made no notice of any visible cracks or damage. Went in to the office, worked 8 hours, proceeding to get in my Telluride, removed my sunshade and noticed about an 18" to 24" long crack in my winshield running right down the middle. It was mindblowing how bad the crack was after a day that was not extremely hot or cold.

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.

I have a 2022 Kia Telluride with 3 "urgent" recalls. Unfortunately, I am in the military and stationed overseas. The local Kia dealer cannot view the recalls in their system. We contacted a Kia dealer in our US home state, and they told us they cannot provide the parts or work to be conducted without the vehicle being in the US. As it stands, we cannot ship the vehicle back to the US when we move as there are recalls on the vehicle. We have an expensive paperweight and no clear path to fix the issues.

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.
