"The (12-volt) battery may experience internal weld and/or cast-on-strap failures, which could lead to a sudden battery degradation while driving," the recall report says. "If the battery suddenly degrades during a drive it can lead to a vehicle that is unable to restart after an auto stop/start event or experience a stall while coming to a stop at low speed."

Dealers have been instructed to inspect and replace the 12-volt battery, if needed, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed February 3, 2025.

Kia recalls hybrids for airbag issue

Kia is recalling certain 2023-2025 Niro EV, Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) and Hybrid vehicles as damaged wiring may impede airbags from deploying correctly.

The vehicles utilize a manually operated passenger seat, where the recall report states that repeated adjustments may cause damage to the wires underneath.

This damage could result in:

  • The nondeployment of airbags and/or seatbelt pretensioners
  • The inability to suppress the passenger frontal airbag for a child or small occupant
  • Inadvertent deployment of the passenger side airbag

Dealers will inspect, replace and reroute the floor wiring assembly, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed March 14, 2025.

Land Rover rearview camera issue prompts recalls

Land Rover is recalling some 2023 Discovery Sport, 2023-2024 Defender and 2023 Range Rover Evoque vehicles as a potential touchscreen failure could cause drivers to be unable to see their rearview camera.

The NHTSA says that the recalled vehicles may see the touchscreen in the center console go blank when the vehicle starts, resulting in the rearview camera image not displaying as intended. That failure causes the vehicles to be out of compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

Dealers will update the touchscreen software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed March 14.

Jaguar recalls some XEs for camera problems

Jaguar expanded a recall for 2019-2020 Jaguar XEs due to potentially damaged wires in the trunk preventing the car's rearview camera from displaying.

The vehicles were built at the Castle Bromwich Vehicle Assembly Plant between June 18, 2018 and Sept. 10, 2020, according to the recall report.

Dealers will inspect and repair, or replace the rearview camera wiring harness, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed March 14.
