Summary
WARRANTY EXTENSION: OWNER NOTIFICATION - Kia Motors America, Inc. takes pride in providing you with high quality and dependable vehicles.

Kia has determined that over time and extended use, the door latches may not function properly when the outside handle is pulled. If the door latch is not functioning properly, the door may not open. The door(s) can be opened by pulling the inside handle (provided the rear door child safety locks are not engaged).
