has your issue been resolved???
Hi. I drive a lot. I know a lot of people who drive a lot. If this is a random issue it is extremely random and rare. I know nothing of a systematic failure of random AC units due to road debris.This isn't a Kia problem, it is something that happens very infrequently and with almost every car maker out there. It's just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Just google it and you will see people from different brands posting about it. It is damage from road debris, which should be covered by your insurance company.
By the way I do not off road this 8000 mile Kia Telluride it has only been on paved city and federal roads. Not bottomed out on any curbs or driven over any bumps, except speed bumps.HEY!!!!! How are these breaking? Are the people writing on this forum with this issue going serious off roading? Bottomed out on a parking lot median? There is no mention in any of these posts about usage or causality.
Thanks! It is important to move forward on issues by fully discussing the parameters of them. The interwebz are forever so clarifying discussions now could help other owners later.Oh

Thanx, but this is a classic boondoggle. It has zero bearing on the actual situation. It has no path forward and no possible resolution.http://pedrosboard.com/read.php?7,35547,35584..porsche boxter
