Reported risk: Issue: On certain vehicles, there may be a problem with the front seat belt pretensioners. As a result, the driver and/or passenger seat belt pretensioners could explode in a crash. If this happens, small pieces of metal could hit people in the vehicle. Note: This recall replaces RC160 (Transport Canada recall 2022-102) and only affects Sorento Hybrid (HEV) and Sorento Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) models. Safety Risk: A seat belt pretensioner that explodes could create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Kia will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealership to install protective caps over the driver and front passenger's seat belt pretensioners.
