Kia K5 Lemon Law — What to Know
The Kia K5 has accumulated 391 total NHTSA complaints across all model years in our database. If your K5 has a recurring defect that Kia’s dealers have been unable to fix, you may qualify for a buyback or replacement under California’s Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act.
Common qualifying issues include engine and transmission problems, electrical system failures, brake defects, and safety-related concerns that persist after multiple dealer repair attempts.
Under Cal. Civ. Code § 1793.22, a vehicle is presumed to be a “lemon” if the manufacturer or dealer has made 4+ repair attempts for the same defect, 2+ attempts for a safety defect, or the vehicle has been out of service for 30+ cumulative days — all within 18 months or 18,000 miles from delivery.
