Kia is recalling 144,979 of its 2022-2023 Sorento, Sorento Hybrid, and Sorento Plug-in Hybrid vehicles because mounting clips for the vehicle's rearview camera can break, which can cause the image not to appear properly on the display and reduce the driver's rearview.
Dealers will inspect and replace the rearview camera housing, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed Oct. 27, 2023. Owners may contact Kia customer service at 1-800-333-4542. Kia's number for this recall is SC280.

Ignition switch failure can cause the electrical system to shut down, the engine to stall and increase the risk of a crash, according to a NHTSA report.

Second letters will be sent once the remedy is available. Subaru owners may contact Subaru's customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Toyota owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.
