Kia je izdal odpoklic, ki velja za skoraj 23,000 enot Borrego, velik SUV s konstrukcijo karoserije na okvirju. Vozila, vključena v kampanjo, so opremljena s stropnimi ploščami, ki se lahko med nesrečo zrahljajo, če je udarec dovolj močan, da sproži Zračne blazine.

Dodeljeno odpoklicna številka 23V-692 z Nacionalna uprava za varnost v cestnem prometu (NHTSA), akcija vključuje 22,768 enot Ovce izdelan med modelnima letoma 2009 in 2014. Kia ocenjuje, da je okvara prisotna v približno 1 % opozoril SUVs. The firm adds that 22,700 of the recalled units were built between May 2, 2008, and January 20, 2009, and sold as 2009 models, which was the Borrego’s prvo, zadnje in edino modelno leto in the nation’s 50 states. The remaining 68 units were built between October 20, 2009, and May 14, 2013, and sold between the 2010 and 2014 model years in United States Territories such as Puerto Rico, Guam, and American Samoa. 

Kia notes that “insufficient adhesive may have been applied to secure the headliner plate to the headliner” during the manufacturing process. As a result, the headliner plate(s) can come loose if the side curtain airbags deploy, which increases the risk of an injury to the occupants. Kia states that it’s not aware of injuries or deaths linked to the problem, however, but it has received one customer complaint.

Lastniki prizadetih SUV-jev bodo morali obiskati pooblaščeno Kio trgovec so that a technician can add “industrial-grade adhesive tape” over the left and right headliner plates to ensure they don’t fly across the cabin if the side curtain airbags deploy. Motorists who have already paid to get this problem fixed will be able to claim a refund. Kia will begin notifying owners by mail on November 30, 2023.

Kia je odpoklicala leti 2012 in 2013 Optima modeli za odpravo podobne težave avgusta 2022 after getting sued by a driver who was injured in a crash. The campaign included every Optima built in the brand’s Georgia plant during those two models years, which amounted to 257,998 units.
