WARNING

  • When you turn the turn signal indicator ON to the left in a left-hand-drive vehicle, or to the right in a right-hand-drive vehicle, while a vehicle is detected ahead, the Kia Telluride may temporarily accelerate. Always monitor the road, surrounding traffic, and lane conditions before attempting to overtake.
