What the authority reported
Issue: On certain electric vehicles, the safety plug for the high-voltage battery may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the plug could overheat and melt. This problem could also cause a loss of power to the wheels. Safety Risk: A safety plug that overheats and melts can create the risk of a fire. A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the safety plug.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
