Remedy
Kia will notify owners, and dealers will replace certain fuses in the electrical junction box. Vehicles equipped with an electronic parking brake (EPB) will also receive a HECU software update. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owners are advised to park outside and away from structures as a precaution until the recall repair is complete. The recall began on April 30, 2021. Owners may contact Kia customer service at 1-800-333-4542. Kia’s number for this recall is SC206.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Check if your Kia has a Recall
This bulletin provides the procedure to install a new fuse kit for the Hydraulic Electronic Control Unit (HECU) in the junction box on some Sportage (QL) and Cadenza (YG) vehicles listed in the table below. Also, affected Sportage (QL) vehicles equipped with the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) / without Smart Cruise Control (SCC) will also get the HECU software logic update. The affected vehicles may exhibit numerous warnings, including illumination of the tire pressure warning light, ABS warning light, MIL warning light, a burning/melting smell and/or smoke from engine compartment in the area where the HECU is located. It is believed that the electrical circuit within the HECU experiences a short circuit condition that results in excessive current, thereby increasing the risk of an engine compartment fire. Before conducting the procedure, verify that the vehicle is included in the list of affected VINs.

Attention: All Kia Parts & Service Managers
Kia Motors America, Inc., pursuant to the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, is conducting a Safety Recall Campaign to replace certain fuses in the electrical junction box to prevent an over-current condition in the HECU’s electrical circuit on the affected vehicles listed below.
• For all 2017-2021 MY Sportage vehicles manufactured from December 10, 2015 through October 23, 2020 not equipped with Smart Cruise Control (SCC), dealers are to install two 30A fuses instead of 40As if not equipped with the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) or two 25A fuses instead of 40As if equipped with EPB. In addition, for EPB equipped Sportage vehicles, dealers are also to update the HECU software with a newer version.
• For all 2017-2019 MY Cadenza vehicles manufactured from June 2, 2016 through June 14, 2019 not equipped with Smart Cruise Control (SCC), dealers are to install a new fuse kit which contains a 25A fuse instead of 40A.
Kia Motors has identified that an engine compartment fire may occur in the area where the Hydraulic Electronic Control Unit (HECU) is located. The electrical circuit within the HECU may experience a short circuit condition that results in excessive current, thereby increasing the risk of an engine compartment fire. The exact cause of electrical short circuit condition within the HECU is unknown.
The Technical Service Bulletin that provides vehicle inspection and repair procedures, affected VIN production range, and warranty claim information will be posted on the Kia Global Information System (KGIS) at www.kiatechinfo.com in the week of March 22, 2021.
PART INFORMATION: As the need of the FUSE KIT is expected to be 100%, a valid VIN will be required for order entry.
Enclosed you will find a sample copy of the owner notification letter and a Q&A Guide for recall questions, both of which describe the issue. A list of Kia Sportage and Cadenza vehicle owners affected by this recall can be accessed on WEBDCS. Log onto the site, select the Campaigns Tab, click on Open Campaign Report in the left side menu, and select SC206 to generate the list.
Notices to the affected vehicle owners will be mailed starting on April 23, 2021. Please start performing the repairs immediately on any affected vehicles currently in your inventory.
Also, please make certain the appropriate personnel in your dealership are familiar with the details of this recall to ensure proper responses to customer inquiries and requests to have the recall performed on their 2017-2021 MY Sportage and 2017-2019 MY Cadenza vehicles. This Safety Recall represents an opportunity for your service department to deliver an exceptional service experience (e.g. flexible service appointment process, car wash and vacuum and timely service).
NHTSA ADVISORY: It is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new motor vehicle covered by this notification under a sale or lease until the defect is remedied.
LEGAL PRIVACY LIABILITY NOTICE: Pursuant to the terms of the Dealer Sales and Service Agreement and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley federal consumer privacy act, you are required to keep confidential any and all information and documents provided to you by Kia Motors America, Inc. or generated by you in the conduct of carrying out work under that Agreement regarding Kia vehicle purchasers and owners, including but not limited to warranty claim information. Kia dealers may use such owner information for the sole purpose of conducting and performing this safety recall campaign, and for no other purpose.
Your prompt attention in completing this recall is appreciated. If you have any questions, please contact your Kia District Parts and Service Manager.
Sincerely,
Kia Service Department
