Subject to the other terms and conditions of this limited
warranty manual, Kia America, Inc. (“Kia”) warrants
that it will arrange for an authorized Kia dealer at
locations of its choice to provide for the repair of your
vehicle if it fails to function properly during normal use.
Such service facilities will remedy such failures to
function properly at Kia America, Inc.’s expense, if you
present your vehicle to such a service facility during its
normal operating hours, provide sufficient information to
permit a proper identification and diagnosis of the failure
to function, and permit the facility adequate time to
perform the necessary repair. As this obligation is
subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this
Manual, you should refer to the manual to understand
which repairs and replacements are covered by this
warranty. If an Authorized Kia Dealer declines or fails to
carry out a proper repair or replacement of a factory
installed part covered by this limited warranty without
charge to you, Kia will (a) determine if the repair or
replacement requested by you is covered by
Replacement Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty
and, if so, (b) obtain cooperation from an Authorized Kia
Dealer to conduct such repair or replacement without
charge to you. However, Kia’s obligation to do (a) and
(b) requires you to contact the Kia Consumer Assistance
Center and provide all materials needed by them to carry
out those obligations to you. The Center can be
contacted at the address or phone number provided in
the Kia Owner Satisfaction and Assistance Section of
this manual, or can also be found at the Kia website at
http://www.kia.com.
This warranty covers Kia Genuine new or remanufactured
replacement parts and Kia Accessories supplied from Kia
America, Inc. and sold by an Authorized Kia Dealer. This
includes Kia Accessories installed by an Authorized Kia

a new Kia Vehicle.
If a covered replacement part or accessory was installed
by anyone other than an Authorized Kia Dealer, the
replacement part or accessory will be repaired or
replaced without charge for the parts, but all labor
charges will be your responsibility.
