2022 Kia Telluride

The LCD screen in the instrument cluster/combimeter went blank. The LCD display contains information such as digital speedometer, gear selection, odometer, distance-to-empty, and all ADAS information. Problem cannot be reproduced. The phenomena has only presented itseld twice (11/2023 and 3/2024). Certified Kia dealer stated there weren't any signs of failure. Service proceeded to perform a hard restart on the system. There is a similar recall for this phenomena (21V577000).

The contact owns a 2022 Kia Telluride. The contact stated while driving with the Lane Keep Assist activated in the Cruise Control mode, the vehicle inadvertently attempted to access the nearest exit independently. The contact also stated that while driving in manual mode at 55 MPH, the Lane Keep Assist jerked the steering wheel out of the driver's grip causing the vehicle to drift to the extreme left. The contact regained control by jerking the steering wheel in the opposite direction with excessive force. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who failed to accurately diagnose the vehicle. The contact was advised to disengage the cruise control feature while driving. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 10,500.

The forward collision-avoidance assist, FCA is the main component that failed on me numerous times before inevitably ending in a car accident. The car is currently with my insurance company StateFarm, to assess the damage and to see if it was a total loss or not. They have had it since the accident that occurred back on August 20, 2022. The car had multiple electrical issues that unfortunately were temperamental as to when they would happen so because of that I started to take video on my phone when ever they did happen to show the dealership of the malfunction when it happened so they could see with their own eyes that there was a problem. I attempted to have the dealership fix it but the GM nicely said, "if it doesn't happen with us then it then it didn't really happen and we don't care if you have video or not! That's our policy so sorry about your luck!!!" it was the FCA and the lane keeping assistance that were the 2 main parts that malfunctioned that risked my safety and the safety of others. The FCA is what malfunctioned during the accident. It would randomly slam on the brakes as if I was about to hit something and the lights would flash and the beeping would sound each time it did this even though there was nothing around me. The other times it had done this to me prior it would only happen 1 time and then it would go back to normal but the date of the accident it continued to malfunction over and over again. There were sensors broken on the car from the moment i drove it off the lot back in April of 2022 and have had replaced. The FCA had been malfunctioning Since early June and I first reported it to Kia back on June 22nd 2022. Kia just sent me a letter confirming the FCA does malfunction but its to late now! I have so much more to report but not enough space to tell you everything! They could of helped me when I showed them proof but they didn't care. Their negligence risked my life and my children's lives!!!
