Kia Smart Cruise Control Software Update
Enhance Your Driving Comfort and Safety with World Kia Joliet’s SC344 Update
The Smart Cruise Control (SCC) system in your Kia Telluride is designed to make highway driving easier and safer, but incorrect radar processing can cause unnecessary braking and false collision warnings. The SC344 recall applies to certain 2024MY Telluride vehicles built from May 16, 2023 through September 10, 2024. This update refines the SCC software to improve radar interpretation and eliminate these unnecessary slowdowns.
At World Kia Joliet, our technicians use Kia’s official diagnostic equipment to install the updated software and verify that your SCC is operating as intended.

- Smooth out acceleration and deceleration patterns for comfort.
- Ensure your Telluride’s safety systems perform as intended.
