As time passes, parts wear out due to age or damage. In addition, fluids become less efficient, air filters clog, and electrical systems can fail. As your Kia dealer, we can fix these and any other issues quickly and efficiently so you can continue to enjoy your Kia driving experience. We want to tell you about some of the types of Kia maintenance we provide. Cabin and Engine Filter Replacement There are two air filters in your Kia. One is positioned behind your glove box and filters the air before it enters the cabin. The other filter is located in a small box located behind the radiator grille and filters the air before it enters your engine. The cabin air filter is designed to trap dust and pollen and prevent it from entering your cabin. These substances can cause allergies and make sitting in the cabin unpleasant. The engine air filter traps dirt, dust, and other debris, preventing them from entering the engine. These substances can damage sensitive engine components. Replacing the air filters is a quick process and will immediately improve engine efficiency and make the air inside the cabin fresher. Wheel Alignment Wheel alignment is the angle of your wheels relative to the surface. If you look at your wheels, they may appear perpendicular to the surface and facing directly forward. Despite their appearance, your wheels could be angled inward or outward from the centerline. The correct wheel alignment for your Kia model is determined during the design phase to provide the best possible traction. As time passes, your wheel alignment can change as you drive over rough services. If your wheels aren't correctly aligned, your tires will suffer increased wear and tear and require earlier replacement. We fix an alignment issue by connecting all four wheels to our computerized alignment machine. This machine individually adjusts each wheel to restore them to perfect alignment again. Starter Repair The starter's job is to crank the engine, and this mechanical process starts combustion as air and fuel mix in the intake manifold, are drawn into the cylinders, and then ignited. When you hit the start button, the battery sends an electrical charge to the starter solenoid. This charge powers the solenoid, and the solenoid passes this charge to the starter to begin the cranking process. If the starter fails, your engine won't work. A starter can wear out, but it's more common for the solenoid to fail. Our technicians will examine your starter and either install a new solenoid or replace the starter, and your engine will start again. Keep your Kia in great condition. Contact our service department today at Hayward Kia in Hayward, CA.

Owners of new Kia vehicles drive with peace of mind, knowing that every Kia now offers numerous standard and available Drive Wise technologies. These Kia safety features include systems to help you avoid a collision, keep you in your lane, and even park your Kia by pressing a button on your key fob. When you visit your local Kia dealer for a test drive, you can experience several of these technologies in action. Kia Safety Features for City and Highway Driving Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is an important Drive Wise feature that uses a camera or radar sensors to detect vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists in the path ahead. If the system determines there's an increased risk of collision, it issues a warning. And if the driver doesn't respond, the system can apply the brakes automatically. To ensure that you only change lanes when you intend to, Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist monitor lane markings on the road, then alert you if you're about to drift from your lane. If you don't adjust your steering yourself, the system can steer you back into your lane. Several blind-spot detection technologies can also detect vehicles in adjacent lanes. Driver Assistance for Parking and Backing Up Safe Exit Warning makes parking and exiting safer by warning you if it detects another vehicle approaching from behind after you've parked. On some models, this system can also lock the rear doors so your passengers can't exit into oncoming traffic. And Rear Occupant Alert can detect passengers in the rear seats and alert you if anyone's been left behind after you've exited. When you're backing out of a parking space, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist uses sensors in the rear bumper to detect vehicles approaching from either side behind you. This system issues a warning, and if necessary, applies the brakes automatically. For the ultimate in parking assistance, some Kia models offer Remote Smart Parking Assist. With this technology, you can exit your vehicle then press a button on your key fob and watch as your Kia parks itself. Experience Drive Wise at Our Hayward Kia Dealer We've introduced several of the most common Drive Wise technologies, but many Kia models offer even more features, like Highway Driving Assist, Driver Attention Warning, and Intelligent Speed Limit Assist. At your local Kia showroom, you can learn about each of these features in detail, plus experience the model of your choice on a test drive.

Our trained sales consultants are experienced and knowledgeable and are ready to guide you through the shopping process so you can feel confident in your decision to purchase a new vehicle.

If you've been researching a new hybrid or EV, you may have noticed that Kia hybrids and electric vehicles are attracting plenty of attention and praise. Kia is dedicated to electric innovation and currently offers 9 hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and electric vehicle models. Your local Kia dealer is a wealth of information on hybrids and EVs, with trained sales staff, experienced technicians, and EV chargers available for use. The Advantages of Hybrids and Electric Vehicles Whether you're looking to lower your daily driving expenses, reduce your impact on the environment, or both, a hybrid or electric vehicle is a great way to achieve those goals. While hybrid vehicles still use gasoline, they also have an electric motor and battery that is recharged during normal use, making them far more efficient than their gasoline-only counterparts. EVs replace gasoline fill-ups with electric charging, eliminating vehicle emissions completely. Since EVs typically offer less range (how far a vehicle can travel on a full charge) than gasoline-powered vehicles, some drivers prefer the convenience of hybrids. Plug-in hybrids offer the best of both, with a rechargeable battery that can power short daily drives without using gasoline, plus a hybrid gasoline engine for longer road trips. Today, electrified vehicle options are more practical than ever, with increasing ranges and more than 40,000 public charging stations throughout the United States. Why Choose Kia Hybrids and EVs Kia is a leader in the world of electrified vehicles, with 9 impressive vehicles of all sizes to choose from. The Niro is available as a hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or EV, while the Sportage and Sorento are both available in hybrid or plug-in hybrid form. Kia also has two EV-only SUVs, the 5-passenger EV6 and the 3-row EV9. Kia EVs offer up to 310 miles of electric range, plus they're powerful and fun to drive. No matter which hybrid or electric Kia you purchase, your battery is protected with a 10-year or 100,000-mile (whichever comes first) limited warranty. Hybrid and EV Service from Our Hayward Kia Kia's sales staff can answer all the questions you have about hybrid and electric models, from explaining home charging and installation to helping you understand local and national tax credits or rebates. And after you purchase your new hybrid or EV, Kia-trained technicians are ready to help you maintain your new vehicle, so you can keep it running like new for years to come. If you'd like more information on any of Kia's hybrids or EVs, call or visit us at Hayward Kia in Hayward, CA. Our EV-trained sales team is experienced and ready to help you navigate the transition from a gasoline-powered vehicle to a hybrid or EV.

Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist Helping you stay safer on multi-lane roads and highways, standard Lane Departure Warning uses a camera to detect lane markers and alert you if you're unintentionally drifting from your lane.
