Known issues on the 2019 Cadenza. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it sits in the service brakes, hydraulic antilock and traction control system: Kia Motors America is recalling certain 2017-2021 Sportage and Cadenza vehicles because the electrical circuit in the Hydraulic Electronic Control Unit (HECU) may short-circuit, which can cause a fire. An engine compartment fire can increase the risk of injury. Owners have filed 4 complaints for the year and Kia has issued 33 technical service bulletins. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind those systems are in this manual.
From inspecting the HECU circuit at the center of that recall to brake hydraulic work or a scheduled service on the 3.3L V6, it keeps you on the factory procedure and the exact specification for your 2019 Cadenza.

Hello, I wasn't notified of the recall on my vehicle. The steering wheel is extremely hard to turn and all of the system lights are on.
While operating the vehicle, the engine suffered a catastrophic internal mechanical failure, resulting in an immediate and dangerous loss of motive power on the road. A subsequent physical diagnostic scan at an authorized Kia dealership revealed manufacturer trouble code P008800 (Fuel Rail System Pressure-Too High) along with universal engine misfire codes P030100, P030200, P030300, P030400, P030500, P030600. The dealership confirmed that the internal engine failure includes a shattered piston.
I picked up my Cadenza from the repair shop. They were repairing the sunroof controls because the sunroof was not operating properly. I was 24 miles away from the shop headed home from Temple, TX to Waxahachie, TX on [XXX]. It sounded like a shotgun was fired right above my head and scared me. I am surprised I didn't crash. I pulled over and the sunroof had a 2 foot hole in it. The shade was in the shut position so no glass made into the cab. No rock or any debris hit the vehicle. My mom was dri
