NHTSA Complaint #11481558 — 2016 KIA SPORTAGE

I receive a manufacturer's safety recall notification from KIA America, Inc.in April, 2022, as the owner of a 2016 Kia Sportage EX. To date (August 27, 2022), KIA America, Inc. has not addressed or corrected the problem. In the interim, they suggest parking the car outside and away from all other vehicles because of a risk of fire due to "an internal electrical short circuit that could result in overcurrent." "An electrical short circuit in the HECU increases the risk of an engine compartment fire while the vehicle is parked or driving." 5 months later, still the problem has not been fixed. So I'm filing this complaint with the NHTSA.
