Label

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the compliance label may be missing information in French.

Canadian regulations require this information to be listed on the label in both English and French.

Safety Risk

These small errors do not affect vehicle safety.

Visual System

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the rearview camera mounting clips could fail. If this happens, the rearview camera could fall out of position and cause the rearview image not to display correctly.

Safety Risk

A rearview camera image that doesn't display correctly could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the rearview camera housing, and replace it as necessary.

Corrective Action & Repair

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and replace the driver and passenger sun visors, as needed.
