2023 Kia Telluride Wipers & Visibility Problems

Your windshield washer fluid isn't spraying out properly, leaving your windshield unclear while driving. This creates a safety concern, especially in bad weather or when debris builds up on the glass. Even after service, the dealer said nothing is wrong, but you're still experiencing weak fluid output and reduced visibility.

While parked windshield started cracking from front left corner every few hours I go out to check it and the crack has spread halfway across windshield

My sunroof randomly exploded upward while driving down the highway. No rock or debris hit me. It sounded like a gunshot. I checked my surroundings and no other car pulled over or look like it was affected by any road debris. I have pictures of the sunroof being shattered upward.

The rear panoramic sunroof shattered without reason. It left about a golf ball-size hole in the middle and shattered the rest into small pieces that remained intact in the sunroof. The shade was open. The vehicle was parked and not disturbed when the incident occurred. If the vehicle were moving when this happened, the glass almost definitely would have shattered into the vehicle and landed on the passengers in the 2nd row. Kia dealership personnel inspected it and suggested a rock must have hit it but there is no evidence to suggest this happened.

Glass side window and windshield cracked I do not recall anything striking the window and noticed both after the car had been sitting for multiple hours. Manufacture claims impact, but it is the smallest of pin tip looking and hardly noticeable unless you run a tiny item across.

Front glass has cracked beyond repair twice in 18 months! The first replacement occurred on 04/2023 and the second incident occurred this week on 7/22/2024. The vehicle was bought new in 12/2022 and has had needed two replacements due to weak glass!

While driving in heavy rain with both windshield wipers operating properly, the right-hand windshield wiper suddenly stopped wiping, parked in normally stowed position. This incident could have been disastrous if this had been the driver’s side wiper since forward visibility would have been lost instantly, putting my safety and the safety of others at risk of major collision.

Windshield got cracked and need replacement within a year

Cracked windshield, no impact

Under normal driving conditions, windshield chipped and immediately cracked. Three times. Windshield replaced on 5/26/2023, 6/23/2023, and 2/20/2024.

New kia telluride 2023 7357 miles and i have a bought on less than a year. My windshield suddenly chip under normal driving condition and i have a dash cam in my telluride. When i park the car i saw a chip in the windshield. Then after a few hours i checked the car and the windshield started to crack then after a few hours again of checking the crack keep running and keep getting bigger and bigger, still my car is just parking and the weather is at 60s today. Now i check my car again and the crack keep on running and not stoping even its just parked. This is crazy as this is a new car and i have a car which is 9 years old, daily driving car and have no experience with having this issue with its windshield. Also my family have 5 cars that are older than mine and not experience this at all. I will keep observing this and see how the windhsield and the crack will react to a parked car and a new car that is less than 1 year old

Had to get the front windshield replaced with only about 2,000 miles on the car, had a crack across the entire windshield. Now with only about 6,000 miles. I have another chip on my windshild. I barely drive on the freeway and have nomal driving conditions. This shouldn't be an issue on a new car. Windshield is fragile and makes me worried glass is unsafe.

While driving on the highway, windshield was hit by a small pebble on the driver side. What was an initially a very small chip started to spread over half the windshield creating visibility issues and negating the ability to repair the chip in the windshield.

There is a dark show that comes Dow 3/4 of the windshield when driving on a dark street with no street lights. This happens when the low beam are turned on, when you switch to high beam your visibility improves.

Small rock thrown from vehicle in front of us while driving about 50mph. Windshield cracked right in middle of drivers side windshield

Windshield seemed to crack spontaneously with only 4000 miles. I don’t see an obvious impact area from where something hit the windshield.

Small Windshield crack was unable to be repaired , spread less the 2000 miles

While driving approximately 15 MPH, the windshield cracked. Nothing hit the windshield, it just split.

Windshield cracked without any impact or signs of impact to window. Crack continues to get longer without any movement.

Since owning the car December 27, 2022 the windshield has cracked with even the smallest pebble. In other vehicles it has only chipped the window, without resulting in a crack. The crack will keep going until it goes across the windshield. I have already had 2 windshield claims as of April 19, 2023 and am waiting to file my 3rd as my insurance company said if I have too many claims they will drop my glass coverage. Each windshield is around $2500 to replace. I am concerned with the integrity of the windshield should I not get it replaced again and how easy it is to crack. Although it has not happened to me, many owners are reporting that the sunroof glass implodes without anything hitting it. This causes concern over the overall integrity of all glass on the vehicle.

My windshield failed. I have 2401 miles on the car and out of nowhere it had a huge crack the next day when I went to take my kids to school. It puts us at risk of shattering at any moment. It gets bigger as the days past. Yes I have reported it. It has been happening to a lot of 23 Telluride owners. No warning light or anything came on.

UNKNOWN-crack in windshield began and spread with out cause. Crack began,noticed within first 1000 miles.

Driving down the road and I heard a crack/pop and noticed a dime sized chip in the windshield on the passenger side. No other vehicles nearby to attribute to a rock or something similar.

Windshield failed on the way home from the dealership after small impact. Passenger side window developed cracks at 486 odometer miles. The windshield chip spread beyond repair during the 6-week warranty claim process in which the claim was denied on 3/8/2023. The side window never took an impact. As shown in the photo's the crack is covered by the sideview mirror and just behind the window molding. Claim was denied as Kia claims it took an impact based on the photos.

While driving on highway my new Kia Telluride’s suddenly made a very loud and scary popping noise. I pulled off at next exit to find a large chip and crack in the top of windshield. I did not see a rock hit it so I’m not sure how it cracked. Completely unacceptable and a safety concern if the windshield cracks this easily.

Driving home from purchasing vehicle heard a pop like squeezing an empty water bottle. Did not know what it came from. Eventually noticed a fine line crack in lower corner of passenger side of windshield extending from edge of glass towards center and curving up. Length approximately 9-10 inches. Contacted dealer to be told they can't help us.
