Subject to the other terms and conditions of this limited
warranty manual, Kia Motors 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.
Authorized service facilities will remedy such failures to
function properly at Kia’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. When an Authorized Kia Dealer makes
necessary repairs pursuant to the warranty, it may do so
using parts that are new, repaired, remanufactured,
reconditioned, or otherwise authorized by Kia. These
parts will be covered by the terms and conditions of the
Replacement Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty. If
an Authorized Kia Dealer declines or fails to carry out a
proper repair or replacement covered by this limitedwarranty without charge to you, Kia will (a) determine if
the repair or replacement requested by you is covered by
this New Vehicle 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

STEP 3 :
In the event that you believe Kia has been unable to satisfactorily address the concern, a special alternative resolution
program called AUTO LINE is available to you. This independent agency is run by the Council of Better Business
Bureaus and is provided at no cost to you. You may contact them at:
AUTO LINE
Council of Better Business Bureaus
3033 Wilson Blvd. Suite 600
Arlington, VA 22201
800-955-5100

Consumer Affairs Procedures
The purpose of the AUTO LINE is to settle disputes between vehicle manufacturers and consumers. The AUTO LINE
staff will record the details of your concern by telephone and will ask for the same information as in Step 2.
The AUTO LINE program consists of two parts - mediation and arbitration. The BBB AUTO LINE staff will provide
suggestions for resolving the problem during mediation. If a satisfactory resolution has not been achieved during
mediation, you will have the opportunity to present your case personally before an impartial person or three person
panel. This is the arbitration part of AUTO LINE. The arbitrator(s) will make a decision after the arbitration hearing.
If you accept the decision, it will be legally binding on you and Kia. However, in some states, if the decision is not
accepted, it may be introduced either by you or Kia as evidence in subsequent court action. Disputes handled through
the BBB Auto Line process are usually resolved within 40 days of your contacting the BBB. If you have not contacted
Kia Motors America, Inc. first regarding your complaint, the arbitration process will take no longer than 47 days.
You must use BBB AUTO LINE prior to seeking remedies available to you through a court action pursuant to the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (the “ACT”). In addition, you must use BBB AUTO LINE if you are required to do so
prior to seeking remedies available under the “Lemon Law” of your state. However, if state law permits and if you
choose to seek remedies which are not created by the Act, you are not required to use BBB AUTO LINE, although that
option is still available to you. The following section has been developed with information on contacting Kia and on
the basic provisions of your State’s “Lemon Laws”. In some states, your Kia dealership may provide you with Lemon
Law disclosure information in addition to the booklet in accordance with state law. Other states may have their own
state-operated complaint resolution processes. Your eligibility for this program is determined by your vehicle’s age,
mileage and other contributing factors.

If a situation with your vehicle arises that your Kia dealer and Kia have not addressed to your satisfaction, Kia offers a warranty and
“Lemon Law” dispute resolution program called BBB AUTO LINE.
Should you seek a repurchase or replacement under the Georgia “Lemon Law”, you can use BBB AUTO LINE prior to requesting
arbitration with the Georgia Governor’s Office of Consumer Affairs or initiating court action. You are not required to use the BBB
AUTO LINE prior to requesting arbitration with the Georgia Governor’s Office of Consumer Affairs.
If you choose to use the BBB AUTO LINE, you must file a claim under the Georgia “Lemon Law” with BBB AUTO LINE no
later than one year after expiration of the lemon law rights period (the period ending two years after the date of the new motor
vehicle’s original delivery to the original consumer or the first 24,000 miles of operation after the date of the new motor vehicle’s
original delivery to the original consumer, whichever occurs first).
If you wish to participate in mediation, BBB AUTO LINE staff will work with the parties to discuss possible solutions. If you wish
to bypass mediation, or if mediation is not successful, you will have the opportunity to present your case personally before an
impartial arbitrator, either in a telephone or in-person hearing or through written submissions. The arbitrator will issue a decision
within 40 days after you file your claim, and the decision will be binding on Kia if you accept it.
For additional information about BBB AUTO LINE, review Pages 41-43 of this book or contact Kia at the address or toll-free
number indicated below.
In addition, in order to seek remedies under your state “Lemon Law” based on a serious safety defect that was subject to repair one
time during the lemon law rights period and not corrected, or based on any other single defect that was subject to repair three times
during the lemon law rights period and was not corrected, you must first:
1) notify Kia at the address below, by certified mail, return receipt requested or statutory overnight delivery, of the problem
with your vehicle, and
2) provide Kia an opportunity to repair your vehicle.
