POWER SLIDE DOOR (PSD) OPERATION SOFTWARE LOGIC IMPROVEMENT (SC266)

This bulletin provides the procedure to reprogram the Power Slide Door (PSD) control module with updated software in certain 2022-2023MY Carnival (KA4) vehicles produced from January 4, 2021 through February 22, 2023 in order to increase customers’ awareness that the PSD is closing. The updated software will add two (2) warning chimes when the power sliding door begins to open or close and will also change the door speed to move more slowly as the door approaches its latching point. Follow the procedure outlined in this publication to apply the improved logic to the ‘PSD’ system using the KDS ECU Upgrade function as described in this bulletin. For confirmation that the latest reflash has been applied to a vehicle you are working on, verify the ROM ID using the table on page(s) 3 of this bulletin.

NOTICE

There is no charge to the vehicle owner for this repair. Under applicable law, you may not sell or otherwise deliver any affected vehicle until it has been repaired pursuant to the procedures set forth in this bulletin.

 

ECU Upgrade Procedure:

To correct this condition, the ECU should be reprogrammed using the KDS download, as described in this bulletin.

2022-2023 MY CARNIVAL VEHICLES – POWER SLIDING DOOR
SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN (SC266)
Q & A
April 6, 2023

Q1. What type of campaign is Kia conducting?

Q5. Can you describe the recall campaign and fix?

A5. Dealers will reprogram the power sliding door control module with an updated software that adds two (2) warning chimes when the power sliding door begins to open or close. The updated software will also change the door speed to move more slowly as the door approaches its latching point.

 

Q6. How will owners of the affected vehicles be notified?

A6. All owners of the subject vehicles will be notified by first class mail with instructions to contact their authorized Kia dealer to have the recall campaign performed beginning on April 28, 2023.

 

Q7. What should vehicle owners do when they receive the notification?

A7. Upon receipt of the letter, owners are to contact their authorized Kia dealer to arrange to have the recall campaign performed on their vehicle free of charge at no cost to them.

 

Q8. Where were these vehicles produced?

A8. The affected Carnival vehicles were produced at a Kia assembly plant in South Korea.

 

Q9. Will this cost vehicle owners any money?

A9. No. Kia will perform the recall repair free of charge at no cost to the customer.

 

A10. Are there any restrictions on an owner’s eligibility?

A10. No.

 

Q11. If a customer has an immediate question, where can they get further information?

A11. The customer can contact their local authorized Kia dealership or call Kia’s Customer Care Center at 1-800-333-4KIA (4542), Monday through Friday, 5 AM to 6 PM Pacific Time, or via the internet at www.kia.com (Owner’s Section).

1 Associated Investigation

Power Sliding Door Auto Reverse Failure
NHTSA ID: PE22004
Dated opened: April 10, 2022

The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has opened this Preliminary Evaluation (PE) on model year (MY) 2022 Kia Carnival based on allegations of auto reverse malfunction of the Power Sliding Doors (PSD).

Since July 2021, ODI has received 5 consumer complaints alleging PSD auto reverse malfunction in the MY 2022 Kia Carnival minivans. Three of the complaints reported injuries to a vehicle user’s arm, hand or shoulder caused by the force of the closing PSD and being trapped against the door . Consumers are also alleging excessive force is needed to reverse the direction of the closing door. The PSD auto reverse function is designed to automatically reverse the direction of the closing door if it meets a certain amount of force from an object or person.

This PE has been opened to evaluate the frequency, scope, severity, and contributing factors related to the alleged failure of the PSD auto reverse function.
