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...

New 2021 Telluride S owner !!

Welcome,
I've get a white pearl S AWD . I've only had mine a few weeks and have just over 1000 miles on it. I do occasionally like to do some light off roading and live in southeast Michigan where snow is common in the winter, so AWD had always been in any plan for a vehicle of this sort.
I've got no complaints about mine.

Can I ask where you found your S? I'm in SE Michigan too and just starting my search. So far looks slim and had one tell me when they get one, it won't go for less than $4k over MSRP...no thanks.

Picked up my S last week -Dark Moss with Gray int. Was hesitant about the light interior until I got it, but it lightens things up, and looks good. Great vehicle.
Ernysan, you laugh but its really is the one thing. When we bought, the SX was nowhere available and the EX was only available in the 8 seater. I know Patmatt here on the forum has converted the Canadian SX to Led and I am going to, buy its a lot of work. I almost have my wife convinced to let me buy another Telly for me...

I went in to place my order for an S and as I was walking in the door, I watched their S demo leave the lot on a test drive. Only half the taillight lit up while braking and the turn signal was in the bumper. (Gross...) After three minutes of last minute research on my phone, I placed my order for an EX. Tipped the scale for me.

It would have for me as well, but like I said, the initial offering was an 8 seater on the EX which we didnt want and the SX seemed more like a rumor versus an actual vehicle someone remotely close to us could get on a lot. We had a lease on a van that was up so we had to move.
I agree - it is a terrible location for the turn signal! It would be difficult for the vehicle behind you to see them if you are pulling a trailer - even a small utility one. Additionally, I am sure that they become obscured with slush/snow/road spray during the winter.
My teenage son was driving my new Telluride this weekend and spotted a Kia Carnival in the lane ahead of us. When the driver put on her signal light to exit the highway, my son commented on the low location of the turn signal and how he was expecting it to be part of the taillight.

I was following another Kia last weekend maybe a Sportage, in my F150 and I couldn't see the turn signal. We were close in traffic a few cars from the light with no right turn lane so we were all just getting going and I was a little surprised that they accelerated and then slowed down so quickly. I realized if I was within a car length of them, I couldn't see their signal in the bumper.
