Two auto manufacturers are issuing recalls that affect a total of 300,000 vehicles.
Kia Soul gas pedals
Kia Motors America is recalling their 2014-2015 Soul and Soul electric cars because a section of the gas pedal may bend and fracture if unanticipated excessive force is applied to the pedal. This could affect the car's ability to accelerate and increase the risk of a crash. The recall involves 208,858 cars and Kia will be notifying owners about the recall on March 24, 2015. Dealers will be able to add a rubber support under the pedal that should address the problem for owners.
