## What the record says

- **Product**: KIA SORENTO (2023) - Recall 23V579000
- **Reason**: Kia America, Inc. (Kia) is recalling certain 2023 Sorento vehicles. The air bag warning labels on the driver and front passenger sun visors may detach. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection." A detached air bag warning label will not warn occupants about the risks of air bag deployment, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.
- **Classification**: Not supplied
- **Recalling firm**: Kia America, Inc.
- **Quantity**: 50517
- **Agency-reported status**: Published safety recall
- **Source record identifier**: 241459
