K5 models may also face the same issue with their C-pillar garnish face plates, which are the decorative panels located near the left and right rear windows. In an additional notice, Kia said the piece may loosen and fall off due to a supplier quality issue.

Kia recalls more than 300,000 Telluride and K5 models over loose trim parts that could fall off and cause crashes.

The recalls affect 201,149 Kia Telluride vehicles and 100,063 Kia K5 vehicles. In the Telluride models, the door belt molding trim can delaminate and detach, while in the K5 models, the left and right rear window trim pieces may loosen and detach. These detached pieces can become road hazards, increasing the risk of a crash.
