Kia Sportage Recall



                Kia is recalling nearly 72,000 of their Kia Sportage SUVs in the United States because an electrical short in a computer can cause engine fires. This recall covers all Kia Sortage Models form 2008 and 2009.

                Kia has stated that in documents provided to the government, that water containing road salt can make its way into the braking control computer. This in turn can cause the wiring connectors to rust and can cause a circuit board to short out and possibly sparking a fire.

                This problem was discovered in April of this year after a 2008 Kia Sportage caught fire while parked in a driveway. The government has stated that other fires have also occurred while Kia was investigating this problem. It is unclear if any injuries have been reported from this issue.


                If dealers find rust on the wiring, they will replace the entire computer assembly, if there is no rust however they will just replace the cover that covers the computer module. Kia began fixing these recalls on November 28.
