On certain vehicles, there may be a problem with the front seat belt pretensioners. As a result, the driver and/or passenger seat belt pretensioners could explode in a crash. If this happens, small pieces of metal could hit people in the vehicle.
A seat belt pretensioner that explodes could create a risk of injury.
Kia will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealer to install protective caps over the driver and front passenger's seat belt pretensioners.
