Buying a used 2022 Kia EV6? Check these 4 recalls first

4 NHTSA recalls · 277 owner complaints on file · 1 park-outside

The battery-cell fire recall applies here, with a park-outside advisory, and two separate recalls cover a charging unit failure that can cut drive power. A roll-away recall, covering vehicles that may move after being parked, is specific to this model year. Owner complaints total 277, all unverified, and skew heavily electrical (210), followed by fuel/propulsion (43) and power train (41). No fires were reported in those complaints, though there were 11 crashes and 6 injuries.

Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Confirm the battery-cell fire recall remedy was performed and ask where the car has been parked and charged
  3. Ask whether both charging unit recalls were completed and whether the car has ever lost drive power or failed to charge
  4. Verify the roll-away recall repair and test that the car holds on an incline in Park
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Kia dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
