Kia America, Inc. is recalling 4 of its 2024 EV9 vehicles because a cover on the front passenger seat belt retractor may not be secured properly. This loose cover can prevent the seat belt from locking correctly during an emergency or when trying to secure a child seat. To fix this issue, Kia dealers will replace the entire front passenger seat belt assembly at no cost to owners.
If the seat belt retractor does not lock as intended during a sudden stop or collision, the front passenger may not be properly restrained, significantly increasing the risk of injury.
