## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, the check valve for the purge control system could wear and cause the fuel tank to expand. As a result, the fuel tank could contact hot components and fuel could leak.

Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with a 1.6 L turbocharged engine.

Safety Risk:

A fuel leak can create the risk of a fire.

Corrective Actions:

Kia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the check valve and update the electronic control unit \(ECU\) software. The dealer will also inspect and, if necessary, replace the fuel tank.
