Transport Canada recall 2025011 · manufacturer campaign RC213

14 January 2025

Transport Canada lists: Sorento 2024–2025

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the headlamps and tail lamps to turn off. As a result, the vehicles don't meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations. Note: For the 2025 model year Sorento, this recall also affects hybrid and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models.

Why it matters

Headlamps and tail lamps that don't work properly cause reduced visibility and make the vehicle less visible to others. Both issues could 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 update the body domain control unit software.
