This could cause a driver to believe there is fuel when the tank is empty. As a result, the vehicle could run out of fuel and stall. rnrnSafety Risk: rnA sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. rnrnCorrective Actions: rnKia will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to update the instrument cluster software.
