You Saw It: Kia Recalls Rios for Air Bag Problem

Posted: Updated:

Kia Motors America is recalling nearly 73,000 Rio small cars to fix an air bag problem.

The recall affects 2006-2008 model years.

The sensor mat inside the front passenger seat can crack and fail to detect whether a child is sitting in the front seat.

Airbags are designed to not inflate if a child is in the front seat.

No injuries have been reported from the problem.

Kia will replace the sensor for free starting in July.
