We can get your 2022 Kia Telluride set up with a brake controller, and the best option is the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180.

There are a number of reasons the Echo # C51180 is the best, starting with its overall convenience. Hands down, it is the easiest brake controller on the market to use and install; you just plug it into the 7-way behind your Telluride, and then it gets set up and controlled via an app on your smartphone.

Going with the Echo also saves you room in the cab of your Telluride because it stays in your 7-way so there is no bulky unit in your cab, saving you precious space as well as the hassle of having to drill under your dash to mount it.

The Echo # C51180 also operates your trailer's brakes smoothly because is a proportional brake controller, which means it responds to your Telluride's deceleration, activating them with the same intensity. Since you did mention wiring, you are correct that you will need both a 4-way and a 7-way in order to install a brake controller, and for the Echo on a '22 Telluride, what you will need are the following parts:

- Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # CU94FR

- 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit for Trailer Brake Controller Installation # ETBC7L
