Kia factory warranty: 5 years / 60,000 miles bumper-to-bumper; 10 years / 100,000 miles powertrain (original owner). Second owners receive 5 years / 60,000 miles powertrain. Kia's Theta II engine class-action settlement covers select 2011–2019 models - but not all affected vehicles received adequate resolution.
