2022 KIA SORENTO Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2022 Kia Sorento has 12 recalls, with the most serious being multiple fire risks: a tow hitch wiring harness that can ignite, a fuel leak at the high-pressure fuel pump connection on turbocharged models, a cracking turbocharger oil supply pipe that can spray oil onto hot engine components, and an HVAC blower motor wiring harness that can catch fire. On the occupant safety side, the front seatbelt pretensioners on Hybrid and Plug-In Hybrid models can explode during a crash and send metal fragments into the cabin. The Plug-In Hybrid also has a separate recall for a fuel tank that can leak, adding another fire risk specific to that configuration. Two recalls address rear visibility: the rearview camera's mounting clips can break and allow the camera to shift out of position, causing a distorted or missing image when reversing. On the chassis and equipment side, some vehicles were fitted with an incorrect spare tire that, when installed, can interfere with anti-lock brakes and traction control, reducing stopping and stability performance in an emergency.
