Question:

I am buying a 2021 Kia Telluride EX with the factory towing package which includes a 7 pin connector already installed. It isnt clear from the website which brake controller would work for this vehicle. I know that Kia made changes to the system since the 2020 model Thanks

The best brake controller option for a 2021 Kia Telluride would be a wireless one, the Curt Echo Mobile Brake Controller part # C51180. The Curt Echo gets setup with your phone and then works automatically with the brake pedal in the vehicle. If needed, there is a manual override button in the app as well. This option (wireless) will be the only one for a Kia Telluride that does not require splicing. It will just simply plug into the rear trailer connector and you're done.
