Buying a used 2020 Kia Stinger? Check these 6 recalls first

6 NHTSA recalls · 16 owner complaints on file · 1 park-outside

The 2020 Kia Stinger has 6 recalls in this group, spanning engine compartment fire risk, turbo oil leakage, steering lockup, fuel supply problems, and inaccurate fuel gauge readings. The engine compartment fire recall includes park-outside guidance. Its 16 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, with 6 under FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, 6 under ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, 5 under ENGINE, and 2 under POWER TRAIN. Records include 1 crash, 0 fires, and 0 injuries; those figures do not resolve individual recall status.

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 and turbo oil leak repairs and parking guidance.
3. Confirm steering lockup recall completion and ask about steering binding.
4. Verify both fuel pump recall repairs and ask about fuel gauge accuracy.
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.
