Climate control on starts the car.

Is there a start button on the key fob or only the app?
Thanks!

You have to get an add on module to get remote start through your Key FOB.

How long before supply meets demand? I don’t want to custom order one only to find there’s ample supply by the time the car would arrive 6-8 weeks from now.

 

[Randal]

When it comes to options. You are not able to pick and choose. You have to go with a package. Lx, S Ex or Sx... You can select interior and exterior colors. If you want the SX. You are probably looking at 4-6 weeks.

 

[Tim-in-CA]

Yea, that was to be expected. Just wanted the opinion of the OP when they thought supply and demand would begin to equalize. Not sure how much negotiation can be had here in So Cal on an SX (even for an ordered one)

Calling the OP for you... @Jrudio

Hey everyone. My name is Jay Rudio. I'm a lead client adviser at Lokey Kia in Clearwater,FL. I myself have a Telluride and Stinger. If anyone has a questions or even would like to purchase one I'd be happy to help.

Can you please provide me with the Founder's Club Code? I bought my Telluride in April, but never got my Founders Club email.

I don't think a founders club code will help you anymore as you needed to take delivery of your vehicle by 4/30

I bought my Telluride on April 27th.

You can push back on this. I ordered before April 30 but didn’t take delivery until May. I reached out to corporate Kia and asked them to honor my Founders Club code even thought it didn’t get delivered until mid May. Kia honored it with no argument. Submitted my sales contract and my payment is en route.

I will try that as I ordered 4/22..all they can do is say no.

What is this Founders Club> I bought my Telluride on 4/25.

Spider, Founder Club is a promotion from Kia for those that signed up via email in early in Feb/March. They offer first month's payment or 2 years of Sirius radio if you order and take delivery prior to April 30th. Kia sent a confirmation code to those that applied. Very different that the founding members of this forum that Sal set up. Definitely peruse the other threads and you'll find this stuff everywhere.

Unfortunately, I didn't even know about a Telluride until late April, I don't watch a lot of tv or follow cars all that much. Actually went to a Kia dealership to look at a Sorento as it was time to get rid of the Pathfinder I had. Saw the Telluride there and bought one the following week. So I guess I missed out on that special.

I have seen in a thread or two that the code was the same for everyone that received one. I did not get my email. Might someone share what the code was? I emailed Kia Consumer Relations, and they are asking me for the code. Thanks!

 

[Spider07]

I will take a code too if we are just giving them out

If you saw one and liked it enough you bought one a week later, then you are doing better then the rest of us in our months long waits . Okay I am only over a week but still I know it will be months.

Hi Jay - what have you heard or know about the EX Bluetooth and navigation memory issue? In which the system doesn’t remember your phone (requires a new pairing each re-entry in the car) or save addresses or POI?
Thanks
