Product Improvement Campaign
Kia is conducting a Product Improvement Campaign to update the software in 2010-2011 MY Kia Forte and Forte Koup vehicles equipped with 2.4-liter MPI engines to prevent excessive connecting rod bearing damage.
What’s Involved
The update will involve the addition of a Knock Sensor Detection System (KSDS) to detect vibrations indicating the onset of excessive connecting rod bearing wear.
Benefits
Kia will warrant any engine long block assembly repairs needed due to connecting rod bearing damage for 15 years/150,000 miles starting from the first date of service, whichever occurs first, for both new and used vehicle owners.
What You Need to Do
Contact an authorized Kia dealership to schedule an appointment to have the KSDS software installed on your vehicle.
The estimated time required to update the ECU in your vehicle is approximately one (1) hour, depending on your dealer’s schedule.
