Lights And Instruments

Transport Canada recall 2025011 · manufacturer campaign RC213

14 January 2025

Transport Canada lists: Sorento 2024–2025

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the headlamps and tail lamps to turn off. As a result, the vehicles don't meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations. Note: For the 2025 model year Sorento, this recall also affects hybrid and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models.

Why it matters

Headlamps and tail lamps that don't work properly cause reduced visibility and make the vehicle less visible to others. Both issues could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the body domain control unit software.

Steering

Transport Canada recall 2024240 · manufacturer campaign RC205

24 April 2024

Transport Canada lists: Sorento 2024

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the motor driven power steering (MDPS) wiring harness may have been routed incorrectly. As a result, the wiring could become damaged by contact with the steering shaft. If this happens, there could be a reduction or loss of power steering assist.

Why it matters

A loss of power steering assist can cause an increase in steering effort, especially at low speeds, and create the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, re-route the MDPS wiring harness. If damage is found, the wiring harness will be repaired or replaced as necessary.
