2009 KIA BORREGO Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2009 Kia Borrego has 5 recalls, the most serious involving a brake pedal mount that can break off in a collision, leaving the driver unable to use the brakes and at risk of a second impact. A separate structural concern involves headliner plates that may not be properly secured. If a side curtain airbag deploys in a crash, these plates can detach and strike an occupant. On the lighting side, the daytime running lamps are wired in a way that turns both off when a turn signal is activated, which conflicts with lighting regulations and reduces the vehicle's visibility to other drivers. There is also a compliance label issue on certain vehicles where required French-language tire and rim information is missing, though this does not affect how the vehicle operates.
