The 2011 Kia Borrego has 2 recalls, the most serious being a risk of engine compartment fire that can occur while the vehicle is parked or being driven.
The fire risk traces to the anti-lock brake control module, which can overheat and ignite. The second recall involves the headliner plates along the roofline, which may not be properly secured. If the side curtain airbags deploy in a crash, these plates can detach and strike an occupant inside the cabin.
