Due to this problem in Kia EV9, the company has recalled 2401 vehicles, now repairs will be done for free

Kia America notified the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) last week that the automaker would recall some variants from its 2024 Kia ​​EV9 lineup. The South Korean automaker has said that a total of 2,401 models are being recalled due to potentially inadequate headliner safety at the time of the accident.

The company said that no one died or was injured due to the weak headliner. The EV9 is Kia's first three-row electric SUV, which was launched in the United States late last year and has had a stellar start in sales since its debut.

Kia discovered that certain EV9 models built in 2023 and 2024 do not meet federal safety standards. These models were manufactured between September 25, 2023 and March 21, 2024 and are currently being recalled. Variants constructed between March 22 and 28 of this year were not sold, although they stayed with the brand. Kia has stated that cars manufactured after June 11 would include a redesigned headliner, and the carmaker will replace the impact-absorbing panels for free.
