Can I get my 2025 Kia Carnival recall fixed at an independent shop or do I need a dealer?
Recall repairs must be performed by an authorized franchise dealer to ensure OEM parts and manufacturer-required procedures are followed. While an independent shop may perform repairs, a certified Kia dealer like Nalley Kia is required for official manufacturer recall completion, and parts and procedures are provided free through Kia. Trust a factory-certified service center in Lithonia, GA to protect safety, preserve warranty status, and update manufacturer recall records properly.

We recommend calling ahead or using our scheduler so we can prioritize free recall work and minimize your wait.
Does an open recall affect my 2025 Kia Carnival's trade-in or resale value?

Can I fail a state inspection because of an unresolved 2025 Kia Carnival recall?
Open recalls are not always inspection failures, but certain safety-related defects like a fuel leak can cause a vehicle to fail inspection or be unsafe to drive. Because the cited recall involves a potential fuel leak and fire risk, it is critical to have the vehicle inspected and repaired at a certified dealer to avoid inspection or insurance issues.
