Warranty Terms and Conditions

The 7 year warranty is effective on all vehicles registered from 1 January 2010*.  Any vehicles already registered in 2010 will receive a 7 year warranty but customers will need to return to their Kia dealer to receive updated WISE labels, rear window stickers and handbooks.

The only exceptions to this are selected ‘old’ models that were due for registration in 2009.
