The Kia Optima model name appears in the source set. A case document is not a complete US year/engine catalog or proof of a fault on your vehicle.
Use the exact model-year manual and VIN. A model name alone does not establish code, engine or parts compatibility.
This source supports a model name or the specific conditions shown below. A complete US year, engine, warning and parts list is not established here. Match your VIN and exact-year owner manual before using a code or case.

How to narrow a warning
- Record the exact year, engine or EV powertrain, dashboard wording and whether it flashes.
- Read all available codes and module names before clearing them.
- Check for an open recall using the VIN at NHTSA; a service bulletin is not an open-recall result.
