Kia recalls some Soul and new Sorento models over fire risk
Posted by Tom Benjamin
Kia Motors (UK) Ltd is recalling some of its Soul and new Sorento models in order to deal with an issue with the wiring in their doors.
This problem is in a small section of the wiring loom that controls the mood lighting in these models.
In certain circumstances, there is a small danger of the wiring over-heating and causing a fire.
Hamish McCowan, after-sales and logistics director at Kia Motors (UK) Ltd, said that the company was sorry for any inconvenience that the recall will cause to its customers.
"We are not aware of any vehicles in the UK suffering this problem, but we believe it is better to be safe and that is why we are taking this recall action," he added.
Back in July, Lexus confirmed that it was recalling 3,238 vehicles, including LS 600h models, which had the potential to be affected by a rare engine problem.
