## What is wrong

Issue:

Kia Canada is conducting a Product Improvement Campaign that provides an update to the engine control module to detect potential problems before an engine fails. An engine failure could cause a sudden loss of power with an inability to restart.

Note: This only affects vehicles equipped with a 2.0 L Nu GDI engine.

Safety Risk:

A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of an accident. An engine failure could also create the risk of a fire.

Corrective Actions:

Kia will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to update the software for the engine control module.

Note: Kia recommends that you should always follow the correct vehicle maintenance schedule, which is printed in the Owner's Manual. If you experience unusual engine noise, reduced power, or a check engine/oil warning light, Kia advises you to immediately visit a Kia dealership to have your vehicle diagnosed.
