This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
On 12/09/22, the center lcd instrument cluster went blank 2 different times while my wife was driving. Vehicle has 2200 miles on it. Kia issued a recall in May 2022 for this exact issue but only covered roughly 2700 vehicles. This vehicle does not have an active recall and was produced after the issue was supposedly fixed at the kia factory. Obvious safety issue and clearly affects more than the 2700 vehicles already recalled.
Blank instrument cluster same as NHTSA Campaign # 22V344000. This issue started happening about 2 weeks ago and has happened approximately 5 times so far.
Electronic speedometer cluster goes out sporadically. Back up camera glitches out randomly and says No camera signal received. At least 4-5 times in a year. Kia service won-??t do anything about it unless the can -??duplicate the issues-??.
The instrument panel that displays the mileage, and other things you can select with the mode such as tire pressure, fuel economy, range remaining on the tank of gas goes blank. The main instrument panel display randomly goes out from the moment it starts to the end of that drive, most of the time it works but some drives it's completely blank the entire time, rather you restart several times or not.
Instrument cluster goes blank. -??Data error-?? message displays. Speedometer stops working. Fuel gauge goes to -??empty-??. Compass displays the opposite of what is true (says I-??m going north when actually traveling south). Warning message (voice and display on map) giving me a dangerous warning that I-??m traveling north while in a southbound lane. No speedometer puts me and others at risk. Problem has been reproduced at dealership on 7/20/2022. No prior symptoms or warning lights when problem first occurred with 300 miles on the odometer. Created a case number with KIA on 6/23/2022 (14889564). This problem seems very similar if not exactly like NHTSA campaign number 22V344000 and KIA recall number SC237. KIA seems to be dragging their feet in fixing this dangerous problem. It-??s been very difficult getting any answers on when they will fix the problem. I could use your help. This issue has occurred 9 times in 8 weeks.

Upon starting my vehicle morning of 6/16/22 the LCD CLUSTER DISPLAY showed -??system check-?? with the scan of the picture of the SUV then screen went to black. I attempted to restart the vehicle and it did the same thing. I took the vehicle directly to dealer and rep saw the blank display. In addition apple car play stopped working. On 6/20 rep informed me that everything was working and tech was unable to duplicate the problem. There-??s obviously something faulty with the vehicle. The car has less than 5500 miles and dealer said since they were unable to duplicate the problem there-??s nothing to repair but if it happens again to take it back in. This issue prevents me from being able to see odometer and if I have to wait for a tech to get around to looking at it I risk the chance of the problem temporarily fixing itself before the tech looks at it.
After taking my car back to the dealership and speaking to KIA USA about my instrument panel going blank randomly, now my blinker arrow lights have stopped working randomly. This is a safety issue even more than the instrument panel because my blinker can be on without me being aware, which could lead to another car pulling out in front of me if they assume I am turning. I was driving for a while today before I realized that my blinker panel lights had turned off and I had been driving with the blinker on. This occurrence has happened twice now within the last week.

Instrument panel located between the speedometer and tachometer which shows information such as MPH, tire pressure, miles remaining, etc. intermittently goes blank. When you start the car, it shows a system check then goes blank. This does not happen every time but it happens frequently (once per day). If you shut the car off and open the door, it usually fixes the issue the next time you start the car. This issue began the day after I purchased the car new.
Day 1 of ownership of brand new vehicle. At less than 100 miles on odometer, the center part of the instrument panel goes completely black and does not display pertinent driving information, potentially information necessary for safety purposes. Problem is intermittent. Dealer is unable to fix and unable to determine cause of problem.
