5 recalls across 6 model years
The KIA K900 has 5 recalls spanning the 2015–2020 model years, with the most serious being a fire risk on 2016–2018 models where the anti-lock brake control module can develop an electrical short and ignite a fire in the engine compartment, whether the vehicle is parked or in motion.
Owners of 2019–2020 models face a separate fire concern: the left turbocharger oil feed pipe and hose on vehicles equipped with the 3.3-liter turbocharged engine can deteriorate and leak oil onto hot engine components, raising the risk of an engine fire while driving.
On 2015–2016 models equipped with LED headlights, electrical resistance can build up in the multi-function switch when the headlights are set to auto mode, causing the headlights to flicker or shut off entirely while driving. The 2015 model year V8 Elite trim with LED headlamps is subject to the same underlying issue through the same switch mechanism.
