kia and hyundai recall

Heard about a Kia and Hyundai recall and wondering if it includes your pride and joy? Both brands have issued multiple Australian recalls across various models and years, so the only honest answer is: it depends on your VIN.

Run a check on the ACCC Product Safety Australia site, then punch your VIN into Kia or Hyundai’s recall pages, or ring a dealer for confirmation.

If your car is affected, recall work is done free of charge and should be booked promptly—no hero points for ignoring warning lights.

Keep records of the campaign number and date, and if you’re buying used, ask for proof the recall was completed; you can also cross-check with state road authorities.
