"Kia Recalls Telluride SUVs Over Rollaway Risk"

Kia has recalled 427,407 Telluride vehicles due to an increased rollaway risk while in park, caused by assembly errors in the intermediate shaft and right front driveshaft. Owners of affected vehicles can have the electronic parking brake software updated and damaged intermediate shafts replaced free of charge at Kia dealerships. Until the issue is fixed, drivers are advised to engage the emergency parking brake before exiting their cars while in park. Customers can contact the Kia Customer Care Center or their Kia dealer for more information, and can check the NHTSA database using their vehicle identification number (VIN) for new recalls.

Ford recalls over 230,000 Explorers for rollaway and axle bolt defects.

Ford is recalling over 230,000 Explorers from the 2020-2022 model years due to a rollaway risk if the parking brake is not applied. The recall is in response to a "disconnected driveshaft" issue that could cause the vehicle to roll away and potentially lead to a crash. Ford will repair the affected vehicles free of charge by replacing the rear axle bolt and subframe bushing, as well as inspecting the rear axle cover for damage. This recall comes after two complaints of faulty rear axle bolts were received by the Office of Defects Investigation.
