I bought a kia telluride 2020 a month ago from a kia dealership. I noticed that the coolant level is already in the minimum level. Is this normal? Do I just need to buy a coolant from kia store and refill it? Or do I need to book for an appointment with the service department to have it ckeck?
What makes this problem better or worse?
Nothing I noticed any problem

Hey there! It's definitely not ideal to see your coolant level dropping so soon after getting your Telluride.
While it's not uncommon for coolant levels to fluctuate slightly over time due to evaporation or small leaks, a significant drop in just a month might warrant a closer look.
I would definitely reach out to them to have them take a look at it, they can perform a pressure test to check leaks and ensure everything is tip top under the hood.
In the meantime, topping off the coolant with the appropriate type from a Kia dealership is a good immediate step to ensure your engine stays properly cooled.
It's also a good idea to routinely check your coolant levels, as kind of an early warning system, and if you notice a significant drop, have it checked out quickly.
Better safe than sorry when it comes to keeping your engine happy and healthy!
