Issue

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the brake hydraulic electronic control unit (HECU) could short circuit.

Safety Risk:
A short circuit could create a fire risk, even while the vehicle is parked and turned off.

Corrective Actions:
Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the fuse(s) for the HECU. Kia recommends that you should park your vehicle outdoors and away from other vehicles or structures until the recall repairs have been completed.
