There are 1 owner-reported fuel system complaints for the 2020 Kia Telluridein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
the car burns through oil at an absurd rate- no warning and then shakes when coming to a stop, then completely stalls and shuts off at stop lights and stop signs. I was stuck in an intersection with my two kids in the car. the car stinks of gasoline and does not seem right. Kia dealership claimed to have fixed the oil issue for over $350 and yet I still have to get frequent oil changes and top offs. NOT safe! I have read countless tings about this happening to Tellurides- especially 2020 and 2021s... my engine is probably ruined and Kia is doing nothing!
