Recalls can happen to a vehicle at any point in its life. Some cars are recalled many years after they initially hit the road, after it becomes clear that some component or system fails after a certain amount of time. Others are recalled much sooner after they leave the assembly line, and that's what just happened with Kia's new Seltos and Soul models. The vehicles, which are from the 2020 and 2021 model years, are now facing a recall over a pretty serious issue with their engines that could cause a fire hazard and potentially damage the motor itself.
In a new recall bulletin posted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Kia Seltos models from 2021 and Kia Soul models from 2020 and 2021 are highlighted. The total number of cars affected nears 150,000, and while they're all included in the recall and will have to be sent to Kia dealers for inspection, an addition 1 out of every 100 of the cars will likely have to have full engine replacements.
