Kia Recalls Over 300,000 Telluride, K5 Vehicles Over Detaching Exterior Trim

News summary

Kia is recalling over 300,000 vehicles from the 2023-2025 model years due to exterior trim pieces that may detach and create hazards on the road. The recall affects 201,149 Kia Telluride SUVs with door belt molding trim that can delaminate and fall off, and 100,063 Kia K5 sedans with rear window C-pillar trim pieces that may loosen and detach. These defective parts pose a risk of distracting drivers and causing crashes. Kia will notify owners starting September 26 and offer free inspections and replacement of the faulty parts at dealerships, with reimbursement available for prior repairs. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has assigned recall numbers SC347 for the Telluride and SC346 for the K5. Owners can contact Kia customer service or the NHTSA safety hotline to check their vehicle's recall status and arrange repairs.
