Issue
Issue:
Under certain driving conditions, a fault in the power steering system could cause reduced power assist when the lane following assist (LFA) system is used. This can cause a sudden change in steering feel and an increase in steering effort.
Note: This problem only affects certain models equipped with a 2.5 L T-GDI engine.
Safety Risk:
A sudden change in steering effort could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action:
Kia Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealer to update the motor driven power steering system (MDPS) software.
