A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary
TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: SERVICE ACTION: MULTIFUNCTION CAMERA REPLACEMENT (SA511) - This bulletin provides information to replace the Multifunction Camera (MFC) assembly on some 2022MY Sorento vehicles produced by Kia Georgia (MQ4a) from October 10, 2022 through October 12, 2022. Some MFC assemblies contain software that may not activate haptic feedback or audibly alert the driver when lane departure is detected, although visual lane departure alerts on the instrument cluster continue to function if the Lane Departure Warning (LDW) is enabled by the driver. This issue does not affect other driver assistance features, such as Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Smart Cruise Control (SCC), Highway Driving Assist (HDA), or Forward Collision Avoidance Assist (FCA), if equipped on the vehicle and enabled by the driver.

PITSTOP: TECHNICAL OPERATIONS: EXTERNAL DAMAGE TO ULTRASONIC SENSOR: This Pitstop provides information related to Parking Distance Warning (PDW) alerts and repairs involving ultrasonic sensors. The PDW system alerts the driver while parking, by calculating distance based on the difference in signal transmission and reception times between the vehicle (ultrasonic sensor) and an object. The membrane film of the ultrasonic sensor is used for object detention and can be damaged by stone chips or foreign substances while driving. Damage to the cover of the ultrasonic sensor can also lead to damage to the internal circuit. As a result of this external damage, the PDW system may not receive the proper signal from the ultrasonic sensor. In some cases, the system may cause a false alarm, no alert, or phantom warnings by a “Warning Lamp’ to be displayed on the cluster. The ultrasonic sensor membrane film should be always inspected for external damage and if any part replacement should be treated as a general repair, not as a warranty claim repair for this concern. (Please note that this Pitstop only applies to models/trims that are equipped with the ultrasonic sensors.) |
