Kia Recall Model Ini Di Pasar AS Karena Masalah Airbag

Kia Borrego/Carscoops

JAKARTA - Kia recalled the Borrego model of 22,700 units for the United States market. This policy was taken due to problems with the airbag.

Quoted from the Carscoops page, Saturday, October 21, this recall had an impact on the 2009 model produced for the US market between May 2008 and January 20, 2009. In addition, 68 units for the 2010-2014 model sold in the US region were also affected.

According to information from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), other components in the side airbag will be released so as to increase the risk of injury.

This problem was only detected when in August Kia made a recall on the 2012-2013 Optima model. The model experienced a similar problem.

Luckily until now the problem that occurred to Kia Borrego did not take any victims, either an injury or death.

Responding to the problems above, Kia took several strategic steps by providing information to the dealers on November 27, and for vehicle owners on the same 30 months.

Later the vehicle owners will be instructed to take their vehicles to an official dealer. Their vehicle will get repairs so that the problem can be handled further.
