Brakes

Transport Canada recall 2025003 · manufacturer campaign SC088

7 January 2025

Transport Canada lists: Niro 2019–2022

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, water could enter the integrated electronic brake (IEB) and cause it to corrode. If this happens, the IEB motor could fail and cause reduced braking. Note: This service campaign only affects certain Niro EV models.

Why it matters

Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the integrated electronic brake. The dealer will apply silicone to the IEB bolt hole or replace the IEB, as necessary.

Transport Canada recall 2023423 · manufacturer campaign RS183

1 August 2023

Transport Canada lists: Niro 2017–2022

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, fluid could leak onto the printed circuit board for the hydraulic clutch actuator (HCA). If this happens, the circuit board could short circuit.

Why it matters

A short circuit could create the risk of an engine compartment fire while driving.

What the dealer will do

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the hydraulic clutch actuator (HCA), and replace it if necessary. The technician will also install a new fuse for the HCA to reduce the risk of a fire.
