What are some complaints you have so far about your Telluride?

So far my biggest complaint is mainly lack of standard options like homelink, memory seating. Also no rear entertainment option and definitely don't like the weird locations of the USB ports.

Ive got a sx model, I wish it had a "smart mirror" like my Subaru ascent (camera showed rearview in the mirror) its like a live back up cam on all the time. I wish the weather/gas prices/HD radio BS worked with XM radio like other companies do.

Wifi hotspot and rear entertainment would be nice.

I wish there was a power folding/raising option for the rear seats. I'm not that tall so pulling the third row back up is a bit difficult. Another item I hate is the button on the door handle to lock/unlock the door. Seems quite outdated to have the button there instead of just touching it.

Have you had that style before? Each manufacturer has a style that seems to either work great or just so-so... For example, my GMC vehicles worked great, no complaints at all but my recent Subaru with the same functions were aggravating so I didn't use them. I like the button because of the physical feel of the button working rather then swiping to try and get the functions to work. That being said, I love that the hatch opens without touching it lol.

I have that feature on my C-Class and I love it.

The auto open hatch feature is one of the favorite.

I don't have that many complaints but I don't like where they position the rear climate controls. I would rather they mount is below the rear cup holders. Another thing that bothers me is the way the long release cord for the third row just hangs there.

If they put it under the cup holders, they would be filled with Coke before the first oil change. LOL

This. My wife had a Mini with Sharp cup holder teeth. It would tear through a styrofoam cup like nothing and go all over the infotainment controls.
The following year they changed the cup holders and I spent $120 to change it out on hers. I considered it cheap insurance.

Why smaller rims on higher trim? And no ambient lighting options at all? Also roof rack standard would be nice. We have an EX...

I agree the weird wheel size with certain trim needs to be removed.

The roof rack can only support up to 220 lbs... I was planning to put a full sized basket and a rooftop tent for overlanding..

My complaints / whines in some cases are Canadian model related. Keep in mind I have an SX trim.
No standard black alloy rims on the SX in Canada.
No standard cargo net included.
No standard cargo cover included. (Anyone want to sell theirs if they don't need it?)
Huge cavernous center console with no organizer.
No convenient cubby for change.
There's a side cubby on the bottom of the center console on the passenger's side but not on the driver's side.
The way the interior dents easily where your elbow rests on the door sill.
The fact the manual doens't fit in the glove compartment.

I'm sure there more but that said - I like it, I like it alot!
