2008-09 Kia Rondo Recall Alert

images-21.jpgA recall has been issued by Kia of 6,680 of the Rondo EX and LX minivans from the model years 2008 and 2009. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there may be a defective fuel pump for the four-cylinder 2.4-liter engine, which may not be able to get enough fuel effectively to the engine.

This could result in engine hesitation or failure of the engine starting correctly, which might endanger motorists if the problem gets progressively worse. If the problem occurs, the check engine light coming on may alert drivers.

If you have a 2008 or 2009 Kia Rondo, Kia will replace your fuel pump free of charge. Vehicle owners can also call Kia at 1-800-333-4542. Taking care of the problem right away may save you a call to emergency roadside assistance.
