"Kia Recalls Over 427,000 SUVs for Rollaway Risk"

Kia is recalling over 427,000 Telluride SUVs due to a defect that may cause the vehicles to roll away while parked. The recall covers 2020-2023 model year and select 2024 model year Tellurides manufactured between Jan. 9, 2019 and Oct. 19, 2023. The issue stems from improper assembly, leading to potential unintended vehicle movement while in park. Kia will update the affected cars' electronic parking brake software and replace damaged intermediate shafts for free, with reimbursement for owners who already incurred repair expenses. Owners are advised to manually engage the emergency brake before exiting the vehicle, and can check if their vehicle is included in the recall through NHTSA or Kia's recall lookup platform.
