require a battery jump, or need help changing a tire, a Kia
Roadside Assistance Representative will dispatch (at no
charge to you) someone to deliver a small quantity of
gas, change a flat tire with your inflated spare, or arrange
a battery jump to allow you to proceed to your destina-
tion. Kia also has a network of over 10,000 locksmiths to
help you when you’re locked out of your Kia, also at no
charge.In the event that mechanical difficulty renders your vehi-
cle undriveable, Kia’s Roadside Assistance
Representative will arrange to transport your vehicle to
the nearest Kia dealer or to an alternative service loca-
tion.
Your vehicle must be accessible to our dispatch transport
vehicle, as determined by our driver, to receive this serv-
ice. In the event that Kia does not have a dealer or an
alternative service location available in a particular loca-
tion, Kia will work with a reputable local service facility to
ensure that you receive prompt service. Warranty repairs
are performed at no cost.
Trip InterruptionTrip interruption expense benefits are provided in the
event that a warranty-related disablement occurs more
than 150 miles from your home, and the repairs require
more than 24 hours to complete. Reasonable reimburse-
ment is included for meals, lodging, or rental car expens-
es. Trip interruption coverage is limited to $100 per day
subject to a three day maximum limit per incident, and
you are required to contact the Kia Roadside Assistance
Center to obtain pre-authorization of expenses. Once the
Kia Roadside Assistance Center gives authorization for
trip interruption benefits, they will assist you in making
the necessary arrangements. Insurance deductibles,
expenses, and claims paid by your insurance company or
other providers are not eligible for reimbursement.
