Map Update v16.0 Arriving May 5th

[bruesjoh04]

is the website update.kia.com?

It is, but as we have mentioned, the update is temporarily unavailable. Supposedly a server issue according to someone who took the time to call about their Hyundai.

Yes. However, it will redirect to the following:

I have Waze in the left 2/3 of the screen, and the Telly's SXM panel in the right 1/3. Love that view!

What I don't like is that when I start the car up, the right panel doesn't ever default to the SXM panel, even though it was what I had up the last time in the car. It goes to weather, then I have to flick it up to get to the SXM panel. I tried reordering what goes in the right panel, but haven't figured this out. Just want the radio (SXM) panel to open first. It seems weather and maps (the KIA maps) panels cannot be removed from that view. I don't need weather or Kia maps at all, ever. I would REALLY like a way to solve that.

This is my exact gripe as well. Despite me putting Radio at the top of the split screen list and last using radio in split screen with Android Auto, the interface insists on defaulting to Kia maps with Android Auto. Such a small thing, but it really bothers me.

Similar to how the radio stays on after you turn off the car, and then shuts completely off when you open the door to exit.

Wait, does your Telluride do this? When I turn off mine, the radio shuts off right away before even opening a door. This is one of my very few gripes about the car. My 2019 Optima would run the radio for a couple minutes after the engine is shut off, at least until I opened the driver door.

Disable this option in General Settings if you don’t want radio to shut off when engine is shut off.

Not judging anyone, but I highly recommend people go through all the settings. I've read a lot of complaints recently for features that are actually configurable.

Man! I swear I went through all my settings looking for it, I knew it had to be an option! Thanks so much!

I totally get what you're saying and I have no problem if this was directed at me, lol!

I'm one of those people that do go through every setting and I even looked for the setting to keep the radio on but I guess I missed it somehow. I've been obsessed since I put my order in six months ago and researched everything I could find, as soon as I got it, I delved into every setting I could. No idea how I missed this one!

Not really directed at you - yours was just one of many similar posts. And trust me, I get it, it's tough to remember the options and where to find them.

Download currently unavailable. Hopefully they'll get that sorted out soon.

Agreed. I Keep checking, it's on my to-do list, and ready to go. Someone said yesterday it's because of a server error they are fixing, but not sure.

 

[bbtelluride37]

also reporting the download is still unavailable. I was so excited for this! Guess I'll have to be patient.

They have now officially stated that the servers are experiencing downtime.

Looks like you’ll have to check back on or after 5/12 if you haven’t already downloaded.

I am due to to receive my new telluride next week, will it be updated already or will I need to do this current update?

It will absolutely not be updated. There will probably be no 2022s that leave the factory with this version of the software. Maybe even some 2023s.

Yes, Kia needs to make their Maps and weather widgets so they can be deselected (never displayed), and also allow any widget order of display. Either of those fixes would solve our problem and it's hard to understand why it doesn't already work that way.

As annoying as this is, at least it wasn't pulled back due to issues with the update.

Thanks, good to know!

Mine doesn’t have this option. The only option I have is to turn media off at startup of vehicle.
