Sorry to hear about your air conditioning issue! Kia’s 5-year/60,000-mile limited basic warranty covers a majority of the components including the air conditioning. It is part of the 10-year/100,000-mile warranty term!
If the AC issue is due to poor workmanship or faulty materials, the repairs will be covered. However, the air conditioner refrigerant replenishment charge is only covered for 12 months (unlimited miles), unless it is part of a warranty repair.
To help you take advantage of the Kia 10-year/100,000-mile warranty for future issues (fingers crossed there will be none), below is a breakdown of what it covers:
Limited powertrain warranty: 10 years or up to 100,000 miles
Limited basic warranty: 5 years or up to 60,000 miles
Limited anti-perforation warranty: 5 years or up to 100,000 miles
Roadside assistance plan: 5 years or up to 60,000 miles
The 10-year/100,000-mile warranty is also transferable if you decide to sell your car. Only the powertrain warranty will shorten to a five-year/60,000-mile term length and the remaining term for the others will be fully transferred.
Your warranty won’t cover damage caused by an accident, theft, vandalism, or weather damage. For that, you’ll need a car insurance policy with collision coverage
and comprehensive coverage
