2020 Kia Telluride - Electrical
Certain 2020-2024 Kia Tellurides have a power seat switch that can get stuck, causing the seat motor to overheat and potentially create a fire risk, even when the vehicle is parked and off. This affects approximately 102,815 vehicles in Canada, and previous repairs completed under an earlier service campaign may not have worked correctly. Kia will mail owners with instructions to visit a dealership for an electronic fuse installation to fix the issue.
