Recall Alert: 2009 Kia Borrego

1027081742 1425510288913 jpeg

The affected vehicles were built from May 2, 2008, through Jan. 20, 2009, and are equipped with non-adjustable brake pedals. (You can check your vehicle’s build date on a sticker on the driver-side doorjamb.) These vehicles use pedal mounts made of fiberglass, and they could break off in an accident, leading to a loss of braking ability and an increased risk of injury. If this occurs, drivers should apply the parking brake to stop the car.

Kia will notify owners later this month, and dealers will replace the affected parts for free. Owners can call Kia at 800-333-4542 or NHTSA’s vehicle safety hotline at 888-327-4236 for more info.

Hellbent on finding a journalism job after earning an English degree from DePaul University, I stumbled into the automotive industry in 2003 — much to the delight of my Corvette-obsessed dad. After working as an editor at Consumer Guide Automotive for several years, I joined Cars.com in 2011 and am currently an expert reviewer, certified car-seat technician and mom of three. I wear a lot of hats — many of them while driving a minivan. My first car was a 1994 Mercury Tracer, and I currently drive a 2012 Mazda5.
