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.
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 limited
warranty 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
address or phone number provided in the Kia Owner
