Driving on highway and did not even hear or see anything hit the windshield. If it did it was minor and should not have caused the damage of a crack that spread across the windshield. I have driven a 2018 ford explorer , 2016 gmc yukon, and 2019 gmc acadia when something had hit the windshield that can be seen and heard with barely any damage or damage that is simply filled/sealed.

TEMPERATURE WAS 65 DEGREES. THIS WINDSHIELD SEEMS EXTREMELY FRAGILE. NOW I'VE CALLED TO GET A REPLACEMENT - THEY ARE ONLY AVAILABLE THROUGH DEALERS AND COST $750. WILL THE NEW ONES BE MORE DURABLE?

I HAD A SMALL ROCK HIT MY WINDSHIELD FROM ROAD GRADING. IT WAS A NORMAL CHIP, NOT UNLIKE ANY THAT I HAVE HAD ON OTHER VEHICLES. I CALLED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT THE NEXT DAY TO HAVE IT FILLED TO PREVENT SPREADING. LEAVING WORK THE NEXT DAY, THE WINDSHIELD HAD ACTUALLY CRACKED FROM TOP TO BOTTOM AND TO THE LEFT, IN AN L SHAPE. SO, MY CHIP REPAIR BECAME A FULL WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENT. I HAVE NOW BEEN WAITING 3+ WEEKS FOR A REPLACEMENT AS THEY ARE NOT AVAILABLE. MY AUTO GLASS PLACE HAS HAD ONE ON ORDER FROM OVERSEAS SINCE THAT NEXT DAY. SO, 4-6 WEEKS TO REPLACE A WINDSHIELD THAT TRULY SHOULD NOT HAVE BROKEN AS THE CHIP WAS NO DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER CHIP WE GET IN VEHICLES. I ACTUALLY TRIED TO HAVE THE REPLACEMENT DONE BY MY KIA DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THERE WERE NONE AVAILABLE IN THE US AND GOOD LUCK FINDING ONE, THEY WERE UNABLE TO HELP. WHEN I CALLED TODAY TO INQUIRE ABOUT HAVING THE CAMERAS RE CALIBRATED POST THE REPLACEMENT, I WAS TOLD THAT IF A NON-KIA APPROVED WINDSHIELD IS PUT IN, I WOULD VOID MY WARRANTY. SO, BEYOND WAITING WEEKS ON END TO HAVE A BROKEN WINDSHIELD REPLACED, BEING TOLD 'GOOD LUCK' FINDING ONE AND TOO BAD, THEY CAN'T HELP ME, I AM NOW BEING TOLD I "MAY" HAVE MY WARRANTY VOIDED HAVING IT REPLACED ELSEWHERE, EVEN THOUGH THEY REFUSED TO ASSIST.

The windshield has appeared to crack for no reason. We did receive a letter from kia saying they would replace it but they need to actually recall these windshields if they are having such and issue with them. I've only had it for 4 months.

I've had my 2020 kia telluride less than two weeks, got into the car which was parked in the garage and the windshield was cracked. Never heard a rock hitting the windshield at any time (I'm the only driver), the crack started in top corner on passenger side and traveled across the top half of the windshield in about 3 hours. Had a 2014 sorento with 12 to 14 rock chips that never spread like this.

The kia telluride windshields are not up to standards. They crack and chip extremely easily and constantly over the smallest debris or for no reason at all and driving at 40 MPH. This needs to be corrected.

It seems as if the windshields on the kia telluride are sub par. There is an abundance of cracked windshields with this very new car, more than average. My own windshield obtained a starburst crack right in the line of vision for the driver.
