Any update on ours? Had to start talking with a manager at my dealership (my salesman has had very subpar communication) and he had no idea any of the cars there were impacted 😑😩 Really wishing I had found this forum before purchasing and bought from y’all! (I’m in dfw as well)

No update that I can see as of today.... Still showing 12/31 stamp
______________________________
 
So in your professional opinion does that mean it's most likely one of the damaged ones?
Oh yes it 100% is unfortunately. All the affected cars from the storm now have 12/31 stamps until fixed then they will update with actual ETA's.
 
New here and have a deposit on a new Telluride. When do or did anyone receive their VIN #?

Thanks for any info!
 
Latest twist. Time to share intel with each other.

The dealership called today with a “Hail Events Credit” offer from Kia US: $2,000 off and 2 years of free maintenance. We must sign disclosure forms when taking delivery.

Has anyone else received a similar offer?

Thanks
So what exactly does the disclosure entail if you don't mind sharing. I'm waiting on a storm damaged one and I'm trying to decide whether to move or not

Here is what our dealer sent us for the disclosure. I'm still pretty concerned about the extent of damage and if incentives is worth it.

Thank you so much for sharing. I am definitely not getting the vehicle now because they are not liable when the paint starts coming off in a couple years.

“Extensive molding damage”. That part especially worries me. Not sure I’m going to accept our vehicle if this is what they give us too😩

Hi Steve,

Do you mind checking this one out for me?

Hey Steven, if you could give this one a look I would be seriously grateful. Dealership saying date got pushed back a wk and want to make sure im not getting one pulled over on me.

ETA showing 05-15 as of today... It can show much sooner as you are up the road from the factory. The day it ships out will be the day it arrives at the store. So, I would think it would be sooner than this date.

Please see thread. Hail is not as bad as people make it out to be. Hope this helps give people here some peace of mind.
 
Thanks for sharing! That’s good to see! The disclosure document seems to say that as the buyer we can get all information we need before signing. Surely KIA has a detailed damage report for each car that went to their insurance. I’d want to see something like that for my car before pulling the trigger but your pictures definitely put me more at ease. The language in the legal document will always be strong / exaggerated to avoid any ground for legal challenge. (Or so I hope :))
