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.

Lev Kia is killin' it!

Ordered Jan 29th. Just received VIN last week. Scheduled delivery for August 9th.
 
Anyone on the thread that ordered a telluride in the January-March 2021 timeframe recieve an update from Lev Kia that a vin has been assign or the telluride delivered? We ordered in March, and wanted to see how others were doing.
I ordered Wolf Grey SX on Feb 2nd. ETA was 23 weeks(last week). Ken called me last week and offered GG SX that is coming in at the end of August. I guess it was a cancellation.

He still could not provide ETA for my order or even where I was in line to get submitted into KFOS. He blamed the chip shortage...

Needless to say, I'm taking the GG coming at the end of August.

I ordered an S in February from Lev. Was told 16-18 weeks initially, but just got my VIN last week. Did not get VIN news from dealer themselves, I looked it up on failcat. Estimated delivery 8/13.

Cool - Thank you for providing your details. I check failcat from time to time (daily because I am impatient). Enjoy the new ride!

Thanks for sharing the details. I called to see if i could get an ETA about a month ago or where I was in the queue. Seems like everything is very much up in the air when it comes to order position/updates. I would have made the same choice you did. Enjoy!
 
I called Ken Russian today - He said the policy changed and now there's a $2000 market adjustment.
 
I'm reviving this thread because I just placed an order with Ken today for a 2024 SX-Prestige X-Line in Everlasting Silver with Terracotta. This one I'm buying and trading in my lease.

Unfortunately, the dealer has changed policy and now charges $2k over MSRP.

I've also seen a couple mentions of some off experiences recently with Lev Kia. Can anyone provide any insight?
