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...

Morning. Does a dealer's status change based on orders? Meaning if they were a "low volume" before the Telluride came out and now have tons of orders do they change to "high volume" in the eyes of Kia corporate and get more Telluride's allocated to them?

@Jason Fox has your dealer's allocation of Tellurides increased?

I do not know that to be true however we checked with KIA and based on % of allocation we have exceeded our number and we feel good about that with all things considered. Everyone wants more but the brutal fact is that you simply can't get more until the Mothership ramps up.

Thanks @Jason Fox. Impatience is a bitch! :)
 
Jason the sheet shows just one Telluride for you guys in Muncie in February so far...? Is that correct? Or am I not loading the sheet properly? That doesn’t seem right.

Just had 4 dropped off yesterday. I wouldn't guarantee everything you read on the internet.
 
Those four would be January builds/VIN’s correct?

What are you telling customers for wait times currently on new orders?

Wait times vary on model/demand. Example-Couple months ago we had a FWD SX without hitch picked up by KIA in 2 weeks. Honest answer is be prepared to wait a long time for anything SX or SXP
