Issue
Issue:
On certain vehicles, the transmission could be damaged if the driver shifts to the "P" (Park) position before the vehicle has stopped moving. As a result, the vehicle could move when the shift lever is in the Park position and the parking brake isn't used.
Note: This recall replaces recall RC132 (Transport Canada Recall No. 2020-310). Vehicles that received a software update under that recall also require this repair.
Safety Risk:
A parked vehicle that moves suddenly could create the risk of an injury or a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the electronic control unit software.
