Official summary

WARRANTY EXTENSION CAMPAIGN: DEALER PRINCIPAL MEMO (WTY043) - This document is the announcement to the dealer principals advising that Kia is extending the New Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage, to all owners, for certain repairs related to the rear right-hand (RH) door curtain in certain 2023-2026 MY Sorento Hybrid (HEV) SX-Prestige vehicles manufactured from June 27, 2022 through December 5, 2025 and certain 2023-2026 MY Sorento Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) SX-Prestige vehicles, manufactured from June 27, 2022 through November 22, 2025.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
