## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain cars equipped with a 2.0 L T\-GDI engine, an engine compartment fire could occur while driving. Kia believes that a fire could start in or near the brake Hydraulic Electronic Control Unit \(HECU\).

Note: This recall does not affect vehicles equipped with Smart Cruise Control \(SCC\).

Safety Risk:

The car could catch fire while driving.

Corrective Actions:

Kia will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to install a new fuse kit. The kit contains two new fuses of 25A instead of 40A, which are designed to prevent an over\-current condition.

Note: You may have received a notice from Kia in December 2020 to advise that your vehicle was not part of this recall, however this is a NEW recall expansion. Contact Kia Canada or your local dealer if you have any questions about this recall.
