Kia is recalling 2,209 of its 2022 Niro EV vehicles for an overheated battery plug.

Kia is recalling 2,209 of its 2022 Niro EV vehicles. In the NHTSA report, the automobile manufacturer said the high voltage battery safety plug may overheat and melt. This can cause a loss of drive power or fire. If a driver loses drive power, it increases the risk of a crash, and a fire increases the risk of an injury.

The automobile manufacturer is warning owners of the affected vehicles not to charge their cars in a garage or any other covered structure until the recall repair is completed. For free, dealers will replace the safety plug. Recall notification letters are expected to be mailed July 19. Kia's number for this recall is SC314.

Lamborghini is recalling 2,133 of its 2023-2024 Urus Performante and Urus S vehicles. In the NHTSA report, the sports car manufacturer said the hood latch striker may separate and fail. This can cause an unlatched hood to open or detach while driving. If a vehicle's hood detaches, it can obstruct the driver's view or become a road hazard leading to an increased risk of a crash.

Owners with the recalled vehicles can visit their dealers for an inspection, repair of the hood and installation of a striker support plate. All services will be completed for free. Notification letters are expected to be sent on June 28. Owners may contact Lamborghini customer service at 1-866-681-6276. Lamborghini's number for this recall is L636-R.02.24.

Mazda recall for brake activating unexpectedly

Mazda is recalling 9,914 of its 2024 CX-90 vehicles. The brake may be activated unexpectedly because the automatic braking system will falsely detect objects while driving. When a brake is not activated by the driver it can increase the risk of a crash, the NHTSA report said.

In order to fix this issue, dealers will update the vehicle's control module for free. Recall notification letters are expected to be delivered by July 17. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at 1-800-222-5500 Option 6. Mazda's number for this recall is 6724E.

Volkswagen recall for display malfunction

Volkswagen is recalling 79,953 of its 2021-2023 ID.4 vehicles. The automobile manufacturer revealed in the NHTSA report that a software issue can cause the center and instrument panel displays to not boot or reset. As a result, a driver may loose their speedometer information and rearview camera image. If a driver's display fails to show a vehicle's speed or the rearview camera image, it can increase the risk of a crash.

These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 101, "Control and Displays" and 111, "Rear Visibility,” the NHTSA report said.

Dealers will update the vehicle software for free. Recall notification letters are expected to be sent on July 12. Owners may contact VW customer service at 1-800-893-5298. VW's number for this recall is 919A.

  • Nissan's Q1 profit plunges 99% as US discounts shred margins

    STORY: Nissan slashed its annual outlook Thursday after reporting a 99% plunge in first-quarter profits.That’s as deep discounting in the U.S. shredded the Japanese automaker’s margins. Nissan’s shares fell following the results, which were far short of analyst expectations.Operating profit for April-June was just $6.5 million.That was just a fraction of the roughly $1 billion profit predicted ahead of the results. It marks Nissan’s worst quarterly performance in more than three years.While global sales remained even year-on-year at 787,000 vehicles, the profit from those sales was hit by an increase in discounts and marketing costs. That’s as Nissan tried to ride out intense competition, particularly in the U.S. The automaker, which has struggled in the U.S., said sales there were also hurt by an aging portfolio and a market shift to hybrid vehicles. However, the firm's CEO told Reuters that Nissan plans to bolster sales with fresh models in the second half of the year. Despite this, investors will now likely worry about the car maker's outlook in the United States.That concern adds to Nissan’s woes in China, where it has seen tough competition from domestic rivals.Shares in the company tumbled around 11% at one point before finishing down 7% - their biggest one-day decline since February.
