Love the Telluride!! I'm ordering Hyundai's version, the Palisade, in June. They are definitely stepping up their game.

Finally got replacement Stinger since the repaint didn’t go so well

Gonna miss the yellow one, car was absolutely flawless otherwise

unfortunately, it looks like there a small isolated case of paint issues (still better than japanese paint overall) and i'm glad they resolved it and stand behind their vehicles (that's saying something). tbh.. i really like the red (matches the interior), dare i say even more than the yellow. i'm happy for you Derek!

You are absolutely right, there are very few automakers that take care of their customers and stand behind their products. Ford, Honda, and Jeep are just a few that will absolutely do nothing to help their customers or make things right. My neighbor had a 2018 Jeep Wrangler with less than 2000 miles and its frame rusted out. He had to get an attorney before Jeep did anything to help. They gave nothing but excuses and blamed him for washing it without drying the frame, who dries their frame out every wash!?

Congratulations on the new vehicle, I look forward to seeing what you do with it and how you make that color pop! It is an absolutely beautiful machine!

They had recall on the Yellow painted cars. If you got the car repainted they would pay you $5000 if the repaint was to your satisfaction. My car got painted twice but it was now 3 shades of yellow. I then put in for a replacement car. I attached the original letter so you could see the whole breakdown. I don’t think too many car manufacturers would go to these lengths. It took awhile to get the new car but I racked up miles thru salt and snow in a car I was turning in.

Kia will take the yellow car to Cali and probably auction it off.

I didn’t have any paint issues with my car but I saw the $$

I'm shocked that they actually went thru with giving you a new car.
That says a lot for Kia's integrity.
Congratulations on the new car.
