The 2018 KIA K900 has 2 recalls, both involving the anti-lock brake control module, which can develop an electrical short and start an engine compartment fire whether the vehicle is parked or in motion.
The fix addresses the same underlying defect across both filings: the hydraulic electronic control unit inside the brake system can fail electrically and ignite a fire in the engine bay, raising the risk of injury to occupants and bystanders.
