Note: This campaign affects vehicles with a 2.0 L GDI engine.

Safety Risk:
A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Kia will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to update the software for the engine control module.
