What Happened
The turbocharger oil feed pipe and hose in your K900 or Stinger is what carries oil to the turbocharger, a key component that helps your engine breathe and perform. In some 2018-2023 models, this pipe and hose can deteriorate and start leaking oil.
Risk if Unfixed
If the pipe and hose leak oil and catch fire near the hot engine components, your engine compartment could erupt in flames while you're driving. This is a serious safety risk that could cause injury or damage.
Free Fix
Your Kia dealer will replace the faulty pipe and hose with a new, safe one, at no cost to you. The repair is free, and you should schedule it as soon as you get the recall notice.
