What's wrong?
The instrument cluster in the 2022 Kia Telluride is the display panel in front of the driver. It uses a circuit board and a small LCD screen to show the information the driver needs while operating the SUV, including the readouts and warning indicators required by federal control and display rules.
On these Tellurides, excess adhesive inside the instrument cluster can interfere with the circuit board. That creates a poor electrical connection. When the connection is poor, the cluster display screen can go blank instead of showing the driver information it is supposed to show.
There is no warning sign before failure. The cluster can appear normal until the display screen is blank, so a driver does not get an advance symptom that the circuit board connection is about to drop out.

Not every 2022 Kia Telluride is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.
What's the safety risk?
A blank instrument cluster leaves the driver without critical information, including the odometer, and increases the risk of a crash. If the display goes blank, use caution, limit driving, and schedule the recall repair with a Kia dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Kia dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Kia Telluride is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Kia dealer to schedule the free instrument-cluster assembly replacement that fixes the blank display screen.
- Bring the recall notice if Kia mailed one. If not, reference recall number 22V344 and Kia recall SC237 when you call.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete, since a blank instrument cluster display can hide critical information such as the odometer.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Kia technician replaces the instrument cluster assembly covered by the recall. The replacement parts and labor are free under the recall. Kia's General Reimbursement Plan covers repair expenses already paid before the recall notice.
