Kia Telluride: Introduction / Vehicle handling instructions
As with any vehicle in this class, improper operation of the Kia Telluride may result in loss of vehicle control, a collision, or a rollover.
The vehicle's higher ground clearance and other design characteristics provide a higher center of gravity than many conventional passenger cars. Because of these characteristics, the Kia Telluride is not intended to negotiate turns at the same speeds as typical two-wheel-drive passenger vehicles.
Avoid making sharp turns, abrupt steering inputs, or sudden maneuvers. Safe and controlled driving significantly reduces the risk of losing control, being involved in an accident, or experiencing a vehicle rollover.
Be sure to read the section titled Reducing the risk of a rollover for additional safety information and driving recommendations.
