general problems of the 2024 Kia Motor Telluride - part 2

The instrument panel in front of the driver is black. I’m unable to see the speed limit, warnings, safety or collision warnings, etc. The vehicle is not making any noise or beeping to allude to the fact that there might be an issue but the kia app is stating that there is an issue. I have used the vehicle yesterday 3/23/24 with no issues and when I went to drive this morning (3/24/24) it’s not working.

Digital dash that displays speed, rom etc is blank.

The contact's father owns a 2024 kia Telluride. The contact stated that after parking the vehicle while away from home, the entire instrument panel had gone blank upon start of the engine without warning. Due to the failure, the contact could not view the gear position, speedometer, odometer, and several other safety related features. The dealer was notified of the failure and an appointment was scheduled. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 1,600.

The contact owns a 2024 kia Telluride. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 40 mph while in snow mode the vehicle suddenly lost all ability to accelerate. The vehicle was able to turn on but was unable to move for approximately 30 minutes. The contact stated after completely shutting the vehicle off they were able to regain full power and momentum. The contact pulled to the side of the road where they had the vehicle towed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer however the vehicle had not been diagnosed. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 1,748.

The panoramic instrument cluster would not display any information. Since the entire instrument cluster is electronic, no information on vehicle speed, rpms, gas, battery, etc. Could be shown. Vehicle would still start fine and drive fine, but vital driving information could not be displayed.

I took delivery of my new Telluride on 9/27/2023. On 11/22/2023 I started getting a warning message on my dashboard that my battery was discharging due to external electrical devices. There was nothing on in the vehicle, nor was there anything plugged into the vehicle. This message would come up after the vehicle had been sitting for a number of hours. This message came on on 4 or 5 different occasions. Then on 11/29/2023 my entire dashboard went blank. Nothing would show on it, not even the speedometer. The car was running, and everything else was working fine. I called the dealership where I bought the vehicle and I was able to get it in that day. I picked up the vehicle the next day. It was some sort of computer problem and they were able to fix it quickly. What makes me most irritated is it happened when my vehicle was less than 2 months old. And my son and daughter-in-law also bought a Telluride at the same time as I did, and they just had to bring it in to the dealership for the exact same issue. Two out of two vehicles with that same issue is scary, and very frustrating that we spend that much money on a vehicle and it has these types of computer problems before they are even a year old. Including the safety recall that has been issued for the vehicle, another computer problem.
