Kia's Soul Gets Recalled

If you own a 2014, 2015 or 2016 Kia Soul, you might want to read the following news: according to Transport Canada, there is a recall for the little SUV.

Targeting 24,281 vehicles, this recall is for a cap on the steering column that wasn’t glued on properly. In some cases it can loosen and fall off, exposing the interior of the system and spilling fluid everywhere. This, in turn, could be problematic when trying to turn, since the assisted steering would obviously not work.

Kia will contact affected customers shortly; dealerships will simply replace the cap with a new one… and glue it properly, this time.
