Airbag

Recall date December 21, 2017
Models affected
  • 2018 Kia Sorento
Units affected 331
Details

On certain vehicles, the inflator diffuser installed in certain side curtain air bag modules may not have been manufactured correctly.

If the vehicle were involved in a crash that warranted side curtain airbag deployment, this could potentially lead to the diffuser detaching.

If the diffuser were to detach, it could become a projectile in the occupant compartment, and could cause a tear that could result in the side curtain airbag to not fully inflate.

Both of these conditions could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

Correction: Dealers will replace both the right and left hand side curtain airbags.
