Kia TSB #TSB BOD132
2014 Kia Forte
TSB Document:
Affected Component: EQUIPMENT
- Summary
- ON SOME 2014-2015 MY FORTE VEHICLES, CUSTOMERS MAY COMPLAIN ABOUT WATER DROPLETS FORMING INSIDE THE REAR TAIL LAMP LENSES FOLLOWING A RAINSTORM OR AFTER WASHING THEIR VEHICLE. THESE WATER DROPLETS ARE MORE VISIBLE AT NIGHT AND THE QUANTITY OF WATER PRESENT IS MORE THAN JUST A THIN FILM OF CONDENSATION WHICH MAY NOT EASILY EVAPORATE. THIS CONCERN IS CAUSED BY A GAP BETWEEN THE TAIL LAMP HOUSING GASKET AND VEHICLE BODY WHICH ALLOWS WATER TO INFILTRATE INTO THE TAIL LAMP. TO RESOLVE THIS CONCERN, ORDER NEW FOAM GASKETS AND INSTALL THEM BETWEEN THE LEFT AND RIGHT TAIL LAMPS AS REQUIRED AND THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE, AS OUTLINED IN THE TSB.
