Kia Cerato and Seltos recalled
Close to 10,000 examples of the Kia Cerato and Seltos have been recalled due to potential engine failure. The recall affects vehicles equipped with Kia's naturally aspirated 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine. "The piston rings fitted to the engines of certain vehicles may not meet manufacturing specifications, and could cause engine failure and vehicle stalling," the company says in its recall notice. "A damaged engine may result in the vehicle stalling and/or engine oil leaking, increasing the risk of an accident or vehicle fire causing injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users."

If you own an affected vehicle, you'll need to schedule an appointment with a Kia Australia dealership to have the engine inspected and, if damaged, it'll be replaced free of charge. "During this inspection, an Engine Control Unit software update will be applied to the vehicle as an additional data monitoring tool to detect early signs of engine failure," says the company.
