    Issues

    Will advise you to get your speed sensor checked the next time you take her in for service. Chances are it will happen again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So glad Telluride doesnt have an entertainment system !!!

    So the key word is convenience. Your question can be raised for so many other technologies readily available in today’s vehicles. What smartphone doesn’t have maps for navigation these days ??? But we find integrated navigation via Apple or Android invaluable or the integrated navigation system...

    That sucks. On very long trips it can mean the difference between a cranky child (or children) that whines “are we there yet” every 5 minutes to one that gives you all the peace you need for your sanity. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Assembly

    Kind of subjective. The problem is with the quality of the vehicle not the person complaining about the poor quality. I don’t know why you would bring this up. Are you insinuating the OP also has OCD issues? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FWD or AWD, which one did you purchase?

    You probably think 4x4 is better. Not necessarily anymore. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Remote Start on Keyfob?

    It’s also available on the Honda Pilot. Their key fob can remotely start the truck, turns on the heated seat and heat for the cabin. You can also use the same key fob to roll down all the windows and moon roof during summer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Who disables Auto Start-Stop when they drive?

    I should also add that while it boils down to personal preference, you’ll still have to turn it off every time you start the vehicle. Some detest it so much they want it permanently disabled but it appears like CVT, some new technologies are here to stay. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Who disables Auto Start-Stop when they drive?

    Absolutely. It’s the same with how folks protest CVT technology. I had to make that clarification because it is not a “don’t believe everything you read on the Internet” thing - it is actually science. You can’t compare starters in the pre-auto start stop era or ‘90s with the starters in today’s...

    Who disables Auto Start-Stop when they drive?

    Actually, the starters today are designed to take extra stress. Starter motors from the 1990s were designed to handle around 50,000 start cycles compared with today’s starter motors that are capable of handling up to 500,000 cycles in its lifespan. All sorts of things are different, from the...

    Kia Telluride Issues

    Don’t think [emoji848] these problems are “minor” though. What is most unsettling is the fact corporate seems to be handling these issues as if there’s a language barrier. Just take a look at Joe’s epistle. That’s not a pleased owner and don’t think he would agree his issues are minor. I think...

    Can you access the third row with the child seats installed in the second row?

    ...but at least, a child her age was able to slide in. That 3rd row is where we usually keep children of her age anyway. I doubt you can achieve that on the Highlander or Pilot.

    Kia Telluride U.S. Sales Figures in 2019

    Encouraging numbers. The Subaru Ascent sold almost 8,000 units in the same month and inching towards 20,000 since it was released. Will keep an eye on the numbers.
