Side Steps - Would not do again

[JoeZ]

Purchased a 2024 SXP -X-Line. Added the black side steps because I was use to side steps on my old Honda Pilot. The Telluride steps fit closely with the body and will trap snow and ice and require cleaning. My Honda steps were chrome bars with good spacing that did not trap ice and snow. Also the jack points on the Telluride frame are a bit more difficult to discern for jack placement. Car is low enough not to really need them. Will likely remove them.

Oh snap. I just ordered them. Anyone else have this issue??

Is anyone happy with their boards?

Optioned boards on my 24, so far they seem useful, especially for her.
Haven't had it long enough to comment about the snow / ice..

Hey guys, where did we order from? I heard Kia doesn’t keep all black in stock?

Welcome back.
You should be able order them from any dealer, they are an option on most of the trim levels..

If I was going to put running boards on my Telluride, I'd use some aftermarket electric retractable running boards.

I have some on my F150 truck and they are infinitely better than the stock fixed running boards. They come down almost 4 inches lower than the original fixed which truly helps getting in and out.
Plus they allow for more clearance when retracted so those occasional forays off road don't do any bumping and dragging.
