Summary

TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: PRODUCT IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN: PASSENGER SIDE WIPER ARM REPLACEMENT (PI2601A) - This bulletin provides the service procedure to replace the passenger-side (RH) windshield wiper arm on certain 2024-2026MY EV9 (MV1, MV1a) vehicles listed in the table below. During winter conditions, the windshield wipers may become temporarily inoperable due to accumulated snow on the windshield or cowl area. Kia has developed a newly designed passenger-side wiper arm of a different shape and angle to increase the clearance between the wiper and windshield cowl.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 16 complaints in the visibility category.
