3. Exceptions
The items specified below are covered for periods
different from the basic coverage.

the original 100% battery capacity. However, it will
provide the vehicle with an EV Battery capacity of at
least 70% of the original battery capacity. This

• Brake and Clutch Linings
Brake linings, including pads and shoes, and clutch
linings are warranted for 12 months/12,000 miles,
whichever comes first, if they fail to function
properly during normal use. Brake linings are
designed to wear out as part of the process of
stopping your vehicle safely and consistently while
providing reasonable levels of noise and vibration
during normal use. Brake or clutch linings function
properly during normal use even if they need
replacement in less than the full warranty period.
Rather, most replacements at lower mileage are
required by driver usage habits which can cause high
rates of wear. In addition, brake lining wear is
substantially increased by environmental conditions
such as exposure to road salt or due to regular
driving in stop and go rush hour traffic. The more
wear factors which are present, the more rapid the
wear. Resulting repairs and replacements of linings
are not covered by your warranty.
• Paint
Paint repairs due to non-impact discoloration, fading,
cracking, chipping, or flaking are covered for the
first 36 months/36,000 miles.
• Seat Belt Warranty-Kansas
The seat belts in Kia Vehicles originally sold in the
State of Kansas are covered under the New Vehicle

regardless of mileage, when the repairs are

4. Limited Liability
Liability under this warranty is limited solely to the
repair or replacement of factory installed parts if they
fail to function properly during normal use. Such
repair or replacement shall be carried out by an

including but not limited to those for any
