Manufacturer Design Choices
• The choices made in designing your vehicle,
including the materials chosen for parts and
components.
• Note: A material is not defective or underperforming
under your warranty because a better, stronger, more
durable or more suitable material could have been
used.
• Note: All vehicle dimensions and measurements are
made solely at the discretion of the manufacturer or
are required by federal regulation and are not
warranted to be suitable for you or anyone who uses
your vehicle.
Normal Deterioration
• Replacement or repair of parts intended to wear
including the friction wear parts of the brakes,
including brake pads and shoes, belts, clutch linings,
filters, wiper blades, bulbs, fuses, and other wear and
consumable items.
• Surface corrosion on any part other than the body
sheet metal panels forming the exterior appearance
of a Kia Vehicle.
Normal Maintenance
• Normal maintenance services such as: cleaning and

to belts, filters, wiper blades, and bulbs are not
warranted. However, as a matter of policy, Kia will
repair or replace such maintenance items of a new

but only up to the first service interval or 12
