SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:POWER ADJUST
Manufacturer
Kia America, Inc.
What Happened
The power adjustment knob in your Telluride's front seat can get stuck, causing the motor to overheat. This might happen if the recall repair from last year wasn't done correctly.
Risk if Unfixed
If the motor overheats, it could catch fire while your vehicle is parked or driving. This increases the risk of serious injury.
Free Fix
Your Kia dealer will install a new electronic fuse assembly to prevent overheating, all at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair once you receive the recall notice, and park your vehicle away from buildings until then.
