Kia Recalls SUVs for Engine Replacement
Kia has announced a recall of a large number of its SUVs due to engine issues that could lead to potential failures. This move affects more than 380,000 vehicles, including models like the Kia Sorento, Sportage, and Rondo manufactured from 2011 to 2013. The problem is related to the possibility of engine overheating, which could ultimately cause it to fail during operation.
The recall concerns vehicles equipped with 2.4-liter and 3.3-liter engines that may have defects potentially threatening the safety of drivers and passengers. Kia reports that owners of these vehicles will be informed about the need to check and replace the engine if necessary.
The company has begun notifying vehicle owners and is offering free engine replacement at official service centers. Owners can expect the replacement process to take some time, but Kia promises to do everything possible to minimize inconvenience.
It is important to note that drivers experiencing engine problems are urged not to delay seeking service from centers, as this can significantly reduce the risk of various incidents on the road. Kia also emphasizes that customer safety is their top priority, and the company is doing everything possible to rectify this situation.
This recall marks one of the most significant measures taken by the company in recent years and highlights the importance of quality control and reliability of the vehicles they produce. Kia continues to work on improving its products and maintaining a high level of trust among customers.
Owners of vehicles affected by the recall will be contacted to provide additional information and support during the repair process. This is a step that the company sees as essential for the safety and trust of its customers.
