Kia Motors decided to recall 2,474 units of Soul due to defects in steering wheel. According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport on June 25, this recall is to address a potential problem of the Kia Soul vehicles.

When adjusting the steering wheel of the vehicles, there is a risk of malfunction or noise generation due to the loosening of the bolt that plays the role of fixing a small toothed wheel installed at the end of the steering wheel axis. The Soul vehicles subject to the recalls are those produced between October 16 and December 31, 2014.

The owners of these vehicles can have free repairs at Kia Motors’ service centers throughout the country starting from July 7. Stay tuned for more details soon!
