What is wrong
Issue:
On certain vehicles, the exterior trims on the C-pillars may not be properly attached. As a result, the trim(s) could loosen and separate from the vehicle.
Safety Risk:
Parts that detach from the vehicle could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the exterior C-pillar trims.
