Kia New Car Warranty Information

Kia vehicles come with some of the best warranty coverage in the industry, protecting your investment whether you stick to the streets of Longwood or drive across the country. The Kia new car warranty consists of 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain coverage, 5-year/60,000-mile basic warranty coverage, and more. With the Kia warranty, a second owner will also be able to take advantage of this transferable coverage. Greenway Kia North has the details on the new Kia warranty, used Kia warranty, and more to help you make a more informed decision on your next vehicle purchase. We will also discuss what is not covered under the Kia warranty.

Benefits Of The Kia Warranty

So, what exactly is included as part of the Kia new car warranty?

  • 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty
  • 5-year/60,000-mile limited basic warranty
  • 5-year/100,000-mile limited anti-perforation warranty
  • 5-year/60,000-mile roadside assistance plan

Thanks to the powertrain warranty, you do not have to worry about defects with the engine, transaxle, axle, transmission, differential, and propeller shafts. No matter where you go in Oviedo and beyond, you can drive with complete confidence.

What Is Not Covered By The Kia Warranty?

You may also be wondering about what is not covered under the Kia warranty. While Kia’s warranty coverage is pretty extensive, there are a few things that are excluded from this coverage.

What is not covered by the Kia warranty:

  • Normal wear and tear
  • Kia’s in-vehicle media controller and infotainment system
  • Misuse (driving over curbs, hazardous objects, etc.)
  • Damage caused by not keeping up with regular maintenance
  • Environmental damage (road salt, hail, etc.)
  • Consumer-caused damage (burns on carpet, spills, etc.)
  • Damage from auto accidents
  • Window scratches and breaks
  • Damage from incorrectly sized tires
  • Service adjustments such as tire alignment and balancing (These are covered for the first year or 12,000 miles by default)

Kia Roadside Assistance Coverage

Another great component of the Kia warranty plan is the roadside assistance coverage. You can enjoy this coverage for 5 years or 60,000 miles, depending on which milestone comes first. With Kia roadside assistance, you will have access to the brand’s vast network of roadside assistance providers in the United States. In fact, there are over 17,000 who are available 24 hours a day to provide help at no charge. Issues that may require roadside assistance include:

  • Running out of fuel
  • Getting a flat tire
  • Having a dead battery

To take advantage of the Kia roadside assistance coverage, simply call 1-800-333-4 KIA (4542). Have your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on hand to verify this coverage.

Can You Transfer The Kia Warranty To A Second Owner?

A common question we hear at Greenway Kia North is, “Can I pass the Kia warranty to a second owner?” The answer is yes! The Kia warranty is transferable to another owner.

Keep in mind that the 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty is transferred to a 5-year/60,000-mile limited powertrain warranty at the time you sell the vehicle. The coverage that is left will be transferred to the new owner. What other remaining coverage is transferred to the next owner?

  • 5-year/60,000-mile limited basic warranty
  • 5-year/100,000-mile limited anti-perforation warranty
  • 5-year/60,000-mile roadside assistance plan

Used Kia Warranty Coverage

Considering a certified pre-owned Kia? You may be wondering about this used Kia warranty coverage. Kia CPO vehicles undergo a thorough inspection for quality, and they come with a Kia certified pre-owned 10-year /100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty. What’s more? This used Kia warranty coverage also features roadside assistance.

Extended Kia Warranty Plans

If your vehicle is eligible for this extended Kia warranty coverage, you can choose from a variety of protection plans for added peace of mind when your Kia new car warranty expires. Your options include:

  • Powertrain Coverage
  • Gold Coverage
  • Platinum Coverage
