2025 KIA NIRO: SEATS
Updated January 17, 2025
Kia is recalling certain 2023 to 2025 Niro EV, Plug-in Hybrid, and Hybrid vehicles because the floor wiring under the front passenger seat can get damaged. This damage can stop front air bags and seat belts from deploying correctly in a crash, or cause a side curtain air bag to deploy without warning.
Is the Kia America, Inc. recalled? Yes. This product was recalled by NHTSA on January 17, 2025. Details below.
