Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with 19" non-chrome aluminum wheels. The wheels on the affected vehicles may fracture from impacts such as large, deep potholes.

Why it matters: A wheel fracture could cause the circular rim to separate, resulting in a loss of tire pressure, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Kia will notify owners, and dealers will replace the wheels with new wheels, free of charge. The recall began in June 2014.
