## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, the 4WD control unit under the driver's seat may become contaminated by a mixture of salt and moisture inside the vehicle. Over time, this can lead to corrosion that could cause a short circuit.

Note: This recall only affects vehicles equipped with all\-wheel drive.

Safety Risk:

A short circuit can create a fire risk, even while the vehicle is parked and turned off.

Corrective actions:

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the 4WD control unit. The control unit and other components will be replaced as necessary. The dealer will also install a protective cover over the 4WD control unit. Kia advises that you should park your vehicle outdoors and away from other vehicles or structures until the recall repairs have been completed.
