• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. 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...

I am seeing a LOT of initial issues with new Kia Tellurides and am becoming concerned that maybe I should continue to drive my trouble-free 2010 Highlander another 100K mil
 
With the 2023 models?

Such as?

Go to any Highlander, Pilot, Ascent, Explorer forum and let us know if they report zero issues. Majority of people come to forums to seek help, not necessarily sing praises all the time.

I have no hard facts but I am willing to venture the Kia Telluride is one of the most scrutinized cars of recent years. I just got a Jeep Wrangler and I don't even want to join there forum.
 
go to a forum and you’ll find rants and people that joined the forum just to solve a problem. Not a problem with that but it is not representative. I got this car for its reliability and build quality.
 
If this is the reason you downvote Telluride, please stick with your Highlander for God’s sake.
 
Is there a specific item or group of issues that has you worried?

You certainly can't go by forum posting as one of the main reasons people join up initially is to resolve a possible issue and not to just say "Gee whiz, everything is working terrific." The latter is what reddit is for. :)

Peruse any high end forum (Porsche, BMW, MB, Audi, etc.) and you'll find lots of issues that are begin dealt with by new buyers.
