Recall no.
99V325

The wires connected to the C123 and C124 connectors can be put under tension by movement of the engine, thus pulling the wires and connectors. This causes the connections to loosen, resulting in a loss of circuit continuity that can cause engine stalling.

Recall consequence
Recall action
Dealers will install spring clips to lock the connectors together. In addition, the dealers will be instructed to solder a splice in the wire harness. Owner notification was expected to begin during December 1999/January 2000. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Kia at 1-949-470-7000.
