Kia Picanto hit by software fault

AutoExec Summary
Kia Australia has issued a nationwide recall for the Kia Picanto hatch due to a technical issue affecting ADR compliance in nearly 10,000 cars sold between 2020 and 2022. The problem involves the rear fog lamp not emitting an audible warning when switched on after the ignition is turned off and the driver’s door is opened. This non-compliance with ADR 13/00 could result in the fog lights staying on and draining the battery. Owners can contact their local Kia dealership for a free software update to rectify the issue. For more information, contact Kia Australia.
