What is wrong
On certain passenger vehicles, the rear caliper brake hoses may be out of position. An improperly positioned rear caliper brake hose may contact rear suspension components and over time breach the integrity of the hose.
The risk
This would result in the loss of brake fluid, which could cause decreased brake function, leading to crash and personal injuries.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the positioning of the rear caliper brake hoses and adjust or replace them free of charge. The recall began on september 15, 2006. Owners may contact kia at 1-[removed].
