What This Recall Means

Component

SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER ARM

What Happened
There's a problem with the front right lower control arm on your 2023 Kia Forte. The weld that holds it together might not be strong enough, which could cause it to break.
Risk if Unfixed
If the control arm fails, you might lose control of your steering wheel suddenly, which could lead to a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Don't drive your vehicle until it's fixed. A Kia dealership will replace the control arm for free, and you'll be notified with a letter starting April 17, 2024. You can also call Kia's customer service at 1-800-333-4542 for more information.
