  • kia said there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the issue, and owners will be notified in march to bring in their vehicles for airbag replacement.

    kia will recall more than 410,000 of its vehicles in the u.s. to replace airbags that may not deploy in case of a crash. the problem, first spotted late last year by kia service team members in south korea and detailed in the nhtsa recall report, involves a faulty airbag control unit (acu). the acu's cover could come into contact with other components on the circuit board and damage soldering joints, potentially leading to non-deployment of airbags in a crash. a warning sign is that the airbag warning light may come on and trigger a diagnostic code.

    the vehicles recalled are 253,281 2017–2019 kia soul and 953 soul ev models, with 47,690 kia sedona minivans from 2017–2019 and 108,693 2017–2018 kia forte cars also included.

    kia will send out notifications to owners starting in march.
