What Happened
The trunk latch in your Forte or Rio is the part that lets you open the trunk from the inside. It's a metal mechanism that connects the trunk lid to the car.
Risk if Unfixed
If the latch gets damaged, you might not be able to open the trunk from the inside, which could trap you inside the trunk. This could lead to serious injury.
Free Fix
Your Kia dealer will replace the faulty trunk latch with a new one, at no cost to you. Schedule the repair when you receive the recall notice and get your trunk latch fixed for free.
