I have had to replace the front rotors twice now. Once at 20k and again at 30k. The tires had plenty of tread life but started to separate in the center of the tire at 20k miles. No inspection by a dealer. Called Kia as well as Kia customer care and was advised nothing was covered under the warranty. No lights came on but the shaking for the brakes as well as a tire vibration was made apparent
The contact leased a 2022 Kia K5 equipped with Pirelli Tires, Tire Line: P Zero AS, Tire Size: 235/45/R18. The contact stated that the passenger’s side front tire had a bubble. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the tire was replaced. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that the driver’s side rear and passenger’s side rear tire thread depth was low. The two tires were replaced. The manufacturer was contacted by email and provided reimbursements for the tires. Additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.
