Details

What's wrong: Kia america, Inc. (Kia) is recalling certain 2023-2025 Telluride vehicles. The door belt molding trim can delaminate and detach from the vehicle.

Why it matters: A detached trim piece can become a road hazard for other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the belt molding trim assemblies as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 19, 2025.
