If a defect affects these systems the consequence can include increased risk of injury in a crash, unexpected loss of propulsion, or electrical hazards. Ignoring a manufacturer recall may also limit your insurance coverage in certain crash or liability situations and can complicate claims processing. At Nalley Kia, our factory-trained technicians use OEM diagnostic tools to identify any NHTSA-identified defects and perform the manufacturer-approved corrective action at no charge.
