NHTSA recall 13V550000
Suspension · Kia America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, the front lower control arms may break due to corrosion resulting from prolonged exposure to salty environments.
Why it matters: A broken control arm can result in the loss of control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Kia will notify owners and dealers will inspect the degree of corrosion of the front lower control arms, and will either rustproof or replace them, free of charge. The recall began on December 20, 2013.
