What is being recalled

Kia Motors America (Kia) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Stinger vehicles. The fuel pump's jet nozzle may have a plastic burr remaining from the manufacturing process, possibly causing a blocked nozzle and an insufficient fuel supply to the engine.

Why it is dangerous

Insufficient fuel supply to the engine can result in a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Kia will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the fuel pump and replace the jet nozzle housing assembly, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began October 29, 2020. Owners may contact Kia customer service at 1-800-333-4542. Kia's number for this recall is SC198.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 20V-560 when calling a dealer.
