SEOUL (dpa-AFX) - Kia Motors America has announced a voluntary recall of about 2,000 Sorentos to fix side curtain air bags.
The company has recalled around 2,000 model-year 2018 Kia Sorento SUVs manufactured between September 5 and November 29, 2017.
The recall is to fix the side curtain air bag inflator diffuser as it may detach from the inflator body during side curtain air bag deployment, which could increase the risk of injury during a crash. Hyundai said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Dealers will replace the driver and passenger side curtain air bags for free.
