Certain Kia Vehicles Recalled Due To Risk Of Fire

 

The Kansas Traffic Safety Resource Office is alerting Kia Sportage owners about a new recall instructing owners to park their vehicles outside due to a risk of fire.

Kia America has issued a new recall for certain Model Year 2008-2009 Kia Sportage vehicles due to a risk of an engine compartment fire originating from around the hydraulic electronic control unit and it may occur while the vehicle is in park or while being driven.

These same vehicles were part of a precious recall in 2016, but owners will need to have their vehicles repaired again under this new recall. Kia urges owners of these vehicles to park their cars outside and away from homes and other structures until the repair can be made. The recall repair is under development by Kia, as owner notification letters are expected to be mailed in December. To contact Kia customer service you can call 800-333-4542
