Kia is recalling 10,459 Sorento SUVs from the 2011-2013 model years in Canada to fix a problem with the sunroof. 

In some cases, especially in provinces where gravel road treatments for ice/snow and severe temperature shifts are common, the Sorento’s sunroof can break due to external impacts, which can cause the sunroof crosspieces with some tempered glass attached to dislodge and drop into the cabin.

Kia dealers will therefore install additional connective pieces to prevent this from happening. In the interim, owners are advised to drive with the sunshade in the closed position until the recall campaign is completed.
