In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Should you first ETA on your signature be 2020 (did you mean Jan. 2021)?

Fixed it! Thanks. That would of been a reverse wait. Would require a DeLorean going 88mph!

DeLorean has NOTHING on the Kia Telluride!🤣😂🤣😂
 
Having 2nd thoughts on my interior color. My order got picked up by Kia last wk. Is it too late for me to change the interior color?

From which to which color are you thinking of switching? Just curious.
 
2021 SX Limited Nightsky ebony black with black leather interior (no nappa) ordered on November 12th from Orangeville Kia in Ontario Canada. Allocated with a VIN# on December 10. Car arrived in Canada on December 30th. Was delivered to the dealer on January 5th. PDI and hitch install starts today. Hopefully pick the car up this week.
Pick-up happened this AM, January 11, 2021. Was the most seamless order and delivery process I have ever been a part of. Team at Orangeville Kia did a great job - special thanks to Ryan and Julie! There was a little nick/scratch on driver's side window trim and a replacement has been ordered. Drive home was awesome. The Telluride replaces a Honda Odyssey for our family.

That looks sharp! I'm curious, when did you order and when was your VIN issued?

Was thinking about switching interior from nappa gray to nappa dune brown. Mainly cause we have a 3yr and 9month old. We had them when we placed the order so I don't know why the sudden chg of heart.(this is mainly coming from wifey. I'm good with gray but do prefer black headliner). But its too late, can't chg the order now. I can either place another order and wait another 5months or see if they have a similar car coming in that someone pulled out of.......Just going to stick with what I ordered. If wife doesn't like it when she sees it, then we can look at our options.

Thank you!

These may be dumb questions but
1. Do you ask the dealer how many orders are in front of you?

2. How do you find out if it's been accepted into KFOS?

3. Does the dealer contact you once your order is given a VIN?

1. You can and they will provide you an answer.
2. Dealer will inform you
3. I'm assuming they will, havent reached this part yet. But I chk failcat daily. You can chk your dealerships allocated vin.

When did you place your order? Typical time frame is 3-5months. Mine is slated for that 5month time frame.

Just ordered this past weekend. Dealer said about 6 months. They were allocated (or at least VIN made) 22 Tellys in the last 45 days. Just needed to know where to get answers once I get to the 3rd-4th month of waiting

So, I called my dealer every month to see if my order was excepted. My order was picked up by Kia last month and due for delivery in March. There is nothing wrong with checking on your order since it’s a big investment.
I’m not sure if the dealership calls to let you know the VIN is available, so I’m checking failcat.

Your dealer should be calling you every month. Mine emailed every week. It's called customer service. You are the customer, you are the one spending $40-$50K . They should be trying to keep you happy.......and informed.
