I just used the Kia Connect app for the first time in months, and found that there is a safety recall regarding the instrument cluster display. KIA INSTRUMENT CLUSTER RECALL AFFECTS 109,000 VEHICLES.

Kia instrument cluster recall letters are expected to be mailed May 26, 2023. Kia dealers will need to update the instrument cluster software.

You can search by VIN to see if your Niro is included: Recalls Look-up by VIN (Vehicle Identification Number)

Note: When I searched by VIN, the result was Recall INCOMPLETE

I had a medical appointment at 4:00 today in Gainesville, so I decided to stop at Jim Shorkey Kia with the recall paperwork at 2:00. Since I had everything available, including the VIN and the Kia recall notice, they squeezed me in on the spot. I will definitely be coming back to this dealer for 8000 mile service.

I have read so many horror stories about Kia dealers that I felt a shout out was appropriate. They also claim to have won the Kia Platinum Prestige Award.

Sounds like my dealer Deland Kia. They have so many of those banners in their showroom it's like a jungle hanging from the ceiling, but they should be proud of all them and display them.
