Calling All Souls: Kia Recalling 96,000 Souls with Sunroofs

Kia Souls have taken the streets by storm in recent years, but they’re about to take a temporary pit stop.

Kia Motors America is recalling certain model year 2010-2013 Kia Soul vehicles manufactured January 8, 2009, to October 2, 2013, equipped with a sunroof. A headliner plate may detach during deployment of the curtain air bag, which “may increase the risk of injury to the occupant during a vehicle crash, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

A total of 95,314 are said to need recalled.

Kia will notify owners on February 2, 2015, and dealers will install industrial adhesive strips to secure the headliner plates, free of charge. Owners may contact Kia customer service at 1-800-333-4542. The number for the recall is SC112.
