Buying a used 2019 Kia Stinger? Check these 3 recalls first

3 NHTSA recalls · 44 owner complaints on file · 1 park-outside

The 2019 Kia Stinger has 3 recalls in this group: engine compartment fire risk while driving, turbo oil leakage, and fuel pump power loss. Park-outside guidance accompanies the engine compartment fire recall, making its current status a specific pre-purchase concern. The 44 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, including 12 under ENGINE, 11 under SERVICE BRAKES, 9 under ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, and 5 under FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM. Records include 1 crash and 3 fires, without establishing links to the recalls.

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. Verify engine fire recall completion and current park-outside guidance.
3. Request turbo oil leak and fuel pump repair documentation.
4. Ask about brake problems, electrical faults, and power interruptions.
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.
