Kia is recalling more than 6,000 vehicles because of a seatbelt malfunction that could increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

The recall potentially affects 6,264 2027 Kia Telluride and Kia Telluride Hybrid models, according to a notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The affected vehicles include 4,367 Telluride Hybrid models manufactured from March 24 through May 12, 2026, and 1,897 gas-powered Telluride models manufactured from March 24 through May 10, 2026.

Kia learned that the “driver seat belt emergency locking retractor (ELR) may lock” when the driver attempts to extend the seat belt webbing in certain Kia Telluride vehicles, preventing the seat belt strap from extending, according to the notice.

“An unavailable occupant restraint increases the risk of injury to an unbelted driver in the event of a collision,” the notice reads.

The cause of the defect is believed to be connected to an “incorrect vehicle sensor” that was installed in certain driver seatbelt assemblies by one of Kia’s suppliers. NHTSA said the issue was due to a supplier error.

Because of this, the vehicles are not in compliance with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 209, “Seat Belt Assemblies.”

No other Kia vehicles are equipped with the defective retractor. NHTSA’s report estimates that 1% of the recalled vehicles may have the defect.

Vehicle owners affected by the recall will be able to take their cars to a Kia dealer to have dealers replace the seat belt assembly at no cost. Kia’s number for this recall is SC372.

As many as three Tata Group companies, including Tata Chemicals, Tata Elxsi and Tata Investment Corporation, have set June 10 (Wednesday) as the record date for their respective dividends cumulatively worth Rs 89.4, effectively making today the last day for investors to buy their shares to be eligible for the rewards.

NEW YORK — Savannah Guthrie, co-anchor of NBC’s “Today” show, did not hire private investigators or spend $500,000 on outside help in the search for her missing mother Nancy Guthrie, according to new reporting that corrects earlier speculation as the investigation into the 84-year-old’s February abduction enters its fifth month.

NewsNation senior national correspondent Brian Entin confirmed Tuesday that the reports circulating last month were inaccurate. “I’ve now confirmed that is not true. Savannah Guthrie did not hire private investigators, she did not spend $500,000 on private investigators,” Entin said on “Jesse Weber Live.” “It seems she still has confidence in the FBI and the local detectives who are investigating.”

The clarification comes amid ongoing efforts by federal and local authorities to solve the high-profile case. Nancy Guthrie was reported missing from her home in the Catalina Foothills area near Tucson, Arizona, on Feb. 1, 2026. Investigators believe she was abducted in the early morning hours, citing evidence including her pacemaker data, doorbell camera footage of a masked figure, and other forensic indicators.

No arrests have been made, and no suspects have been publicly identified. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department and the FBI continue to lead the investigation, pursuing thousands of tips and analyzing physical evidence, including DNA samples. FBI Director Kash Patel noted last week that approximately 150 agents are involved.

Savannah Guthrie has remained vocal in her public appeals for information. In a recent Instagram Story, she expressed her anguish, writing, “Oh my, my soul it cries out, soul, it cries out,” while urging whoever took her mother to “bring her home.” The family continues to offer a substantial reward, reported at up to $1.1 million or more including contributions, for information leading to Nancy Guthrie’s safe return.

The case has drawn intense national attention, with developments closely followed by media and the public. Earlier unconfirmed reports had suggested Guthrie might have supplemented official efforts with private resources, but Entin’s confirmation indicates reliance on law enforcement remains central.

Authorities have acknowledged no major breakthroughs in recent weeks, though forensic work and tip evaluation continue. Physical evidence from the home, including potential DNA, is still under examination. The investigation has involved extensive searches of the surrounding area and appeals to the public for any relevant security camera footage or observations from the weeks prior to the disappearance.

Nancy Guthrie, a mother of three, was last seen the evening of Jan. 31 after family activities. Her pacemaker reportedly disconnected around 2:28 a.m. on Feb. 1, helping establish a timeline. Doorstep camera footage captured a masked, armed individual tampering with the device, adding to the suspicion of foul play. Her phone and medications were left behind, unusual for a voluntary absence.

The family, including Savannah Guthrie and her siblings, has consistently expressed hope while grappling with the prolonged uncertainty. Savannah returned to her anchoring duties in April after initially stepping away, balancing professional responsibilities with personal grief. In recent interviews, she spoke of holding both sadness and joy for her children’s sake and finding strength through faith and work.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has previously stated confidence that an arrest will eventually be made, emphasizing the active nature of the case. Challenges include the volume of tips, the need for thorough forensic processing and the complexities of a potential targeted or opportunistic abduction.

Public tips remain crucial. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI or the Pima County Sheriff’s Department at 520-351-4900. The case has highlighted the difficulties in missing persons investigations, particularly those involving potential abductions of vulnerable adults.

Broader context in the Tucson area includes community vigils and support for the family. The high-profile nature, tied to Savannah Guthrie’s visibility as a national television personality, has amplified media coverage but also brought scrutiny to investigative pacing. Officials maintain methodical progress despite limited public updates.

The denial of private investigator involvement refocuses attention on official channels. Legal and investigative experts note that families sometimes engage external help in cold or stalled cases, but in this instance, confidence in federal and local resources appears intact. Ongoing DNA analysis and digital forensics could still yield leads.

For the Guthrie family, the emotional toll persists. Savannah’s public statements reflect a mother’s determination mixed with daily heartache. Colleagues and friends have offered support, with co-hosts providing space for her to share when ready. The case serves as a reminder of the human stories behind missing persons statistics.

As summer approaches, the investigation continues without a clear resolution timeline. Experts in abduction cases stress the importance of sustained public awareness, as tips can emerge months or years later. The reward fund remains a key incentive for potential informants.

Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance has prompted discussions on home security, elder safety and rapid response protocols. Neighborhoods in the Catalina Foothills have reviewed surveillance and community watch efforts in light of the incident.

Savannah Guthrie’s latest social media plea underscores the family’s unwavering hope. While the correction about private investigators clarifies one aspect of the narrative, the core focus remains finding Nancy and bringing answers to her loved ones. Law enforcement continues to treat the matter as an active abduction investigation.

The coming weeks may bring further updates as forensic results mature and additional tips are vetted. For now, the Guthrie family and authorities appeal for continued vigilance from the public. Anyone with even seemingly minor information is encouraged to come forward, as it could prove pivotal in resolving the case.

Shares of Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) surged as much as 3.18% on Tuesday, touching an intraday high of Rs 235.50 after the company announced a fresh order win worth Rs 221.33 crore from South East Central Railway.

In a regulatory filing, RVNL announced that it has secured a Letter of Acceptance (LoA) for a signalling and infrastructure upgrade project in the Bilaspur Division of South East Central Railway.

The project involves the replacement of conventional Panel Interlocking systems with advanced Electronic Interlocking technology across multiple stations, including BSPR, KLPG, ABKP, MZH, HRV, PRDL, KTMA, BJRI, KJZ, MDGR, CHRM, GTK, KLTR, PLAU, and KBS. The scope of work also includes installation of indoor and outdoor signalling equipment, construction of OFC huts, development and electrification of S&T service buildings, and associated cabling works in adjoining railway sections.

The contract has been awarded by South East Central Railway, a domestic entity, under the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) model. The project is scheduled to be executed within 730 days.

The total contract value stands at Rs 221.33 crore. RVNL clarified that neither the promoter group nor any group companies have any interest in the awarding entity, and the contract does not fall under related-party transactions.

The latest order win further strengthens RVNL’s robust order book and reinforces its position as a key player in India’s railway infrastructure modernization drive. Investors cheered the development, driving the stock higher during Tuesday’s trading session.

Share Price Trend, Valuation & Technical Outlook

Despite Tuesday’s rally, RVNL’s stock has been under significant selling pressure in recent months. The railway PSU has corrected nearly 25% over the past month, while investors have seen the stock decline by around 47% over the last one year, highlighting the sharp erosion in market value from its peak levels.
The company currently commands a market capitalization of ₹47,586 crore. RVNL’s shares have witnessed considerable volatility over the past year, with the stock hitting a 52-week high of ₹442.80 and a 52-week low of ₹227.01.From a valuation perspective, the stock trades at a Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 54.4 and a Price-to-Book (P/B) ratio of 4.85, indicating that investors continue to assign a premium valuation despite the recent correction.

On the technical front, indicators suggest the stock may be approaching a critical zone. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 19, well below the 20-mark that is typically considered deeply oversold territory. Such readings often signal that selling may have become excessive and could pave the way for a technical rebound if buying interest returns.

However, caution remains warranted. RVNL continues to exhibit a weak trend structure, with the stock currently trading below all eight of its key Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), a sign that bears still maintain control over the broader price trend.
