I have a 2020 GT-Line. In just a total of 64,000 km (39k miles), rotors were causing a squealing sound, and all four were replaced under warranty. The dynamic bending lights stopped working, and they fixed it under warranty. The fuel pump wasn't working properly and was replaced under warranty. The turbocharger blew at around 62,000 km and was replaced under warranty. All of that was only in 2021. Have you replaced anything under warranty?
Have you replaced anything under warranty on your Stinger?

They repainted one of the roof trim pieces because it was peeling pretty bad. Thats about it.

Same here, mine just had light spider lines in the paint. Technically, those pieces should have never been painted to begin with.
It's been serviced at the correct intervals at the dealership, and it's been stock since the beginning, and it has never seen the track or drag strip. I guess I'm unlucky. One thing is that I've used the launch control feature of the car around ~80 times in a little over two years, but I don't think the turbo needed replacement because of it.
Well, it didn't technically blow, but that's what they call it when it doesn't work properly? It used to make a loud whine until the car went into limp mode, and the dealership told me that the turbo needed replacement. I didn't ask them what was wrong with the turbo, unfortunately.

I would have had a TPMS sensor replaced under warranty (and they had even ordered the part), but I informed them that the particular sensor in question was actually not a Kia OEM part: it was aftermarket in my TSW wheel. That's it, in well over three and half years and over 47K miles.

Had the pads/rotors replaced multiple times under warranty. They finally listened to me and gave me the Euro-spec parts and my problems went away. I'll leave it at that lol.

I had a roof trim molding replaced within the first year of owning. They'd agreed to repaint it when the paint pitted all the way down to the rubber, but didn't look like a rock chip. The paint job was gloppy and the color didn't match the original, so they replaced the whole strip. Perfect color match, and no problems in the three years since.

@SFM what were the symptoms of a bad fuel pump?
On my GT Line, I had a problem caused by the GPF regeneration (Eu spec) which turned out to be a software glitch & was fixed with a new ECU software. But, while being diagnosed they changed the GPF Temp Sensors and Fuel Injectors.
Other than that,
I had my Starter Motor changed.
And now I’m waiting on a new Torque Converter.

Faulty tranny, went out at about 12k miles. Cats got clogged around 20k miles. Will not be using any Boostane or octane boosters with MMT again.
They diagnosed the car for a couple of days and determined that the fuel pump needed replacement. For months the car would take so long to start and make weird noises when the engine is cold, and sometimes after I start the engine, it stalls like it's about to turn off but then goes back normally.
I was driving the car once, and it stalled for a while, where the rpm went close to zero, and it wasn't responding to the throttle I gave it. I ignored all these symptoms for a long time until I got a check engine light. After the dealership diagnosed and replaced the fuel pump, all these problems went away, and even if the engine is cold, it starts quick enough like it was warm.
I forgot to include one thing in my list of things replaced by warranty. I had the small black coloured door hinge between the larger driver door hinges replaced, as it used to make noises when opening and closing the door.
Also, what happened to your torque converter?

I don't know... when the engine is cod and in Drive or Revers, the engine idles very rough. The revs keep dropping and coming back up. The whole car shudders. When it gets warm it's gone.
I've been pressuring them for a year to fix it and finally, after changing transmission fluid with no success, they ordered a new torque converter. Waiting for it to arrive.
