Issue: rnOn certain vehicles, water could leak into the rearview camera and cause the rearview camera image not to display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when reversing. rnrnSafety Risk: rnA rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. rn rnCorrective Actions: rnKia will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the rearview camera. The dealer will replace the rearview camera if necessary, and apply additional water proofing to the rearview camera wiring harness.
