## What is wrong

Kia America, Inc. \(Kia\) is recalling certain 2020\-2022 Niro EV vehicles. The circuit board for the rearview camera may become damaged and cause the rearview camera image not to display. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) number 111, "Rear Visibility."


## What can happen

A rearview image that does not display reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will replace the rearview camera, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 7, 2025. Owners may contact Kia customer service at 1\-800\-333\-4542. Kia's number for this recall is SC342.
