Kia service campaign SC373

Kia filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated Aug 21, 2026, about the engine — 4 documents under this number: SC373_TSB, SC373_QA, SC373_DPSM, SC373_DP. It names 3 model years (2024–2026). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

What the bulletin says

Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communication

TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN: 3-WAY COOLANT VALVE REPLACEMENT (SC373) - This bulletin provides information to replace the 3-way coolant valve. In addition, inspect the 3-way coolant valve harness connector for corrosion, and if necessary, replace the harness connector on certain 2024-2026MY EV6 (CV, CVa) vehicles produced from August 07, 2023 through June 18, 2026. The 3-way coolant valve in the subject vehicles may become damaged and result in a coolant leak. As a result, corrosion may also be present in the 3-way coolant valve harness connector. An inoperative 3-way coolant valve or corrosion within the harness connector may result in reduced Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) performance and/or in the illumination of the “Check electric vehicle system� or “Refill Coolant� warning messages in the instrument cluster.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Kia SC373 a recall?

No. A service campaign is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the SC373 repair free?

A service campaign is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Which vehicles does SC373 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 3 model years: 2026 Kia EV6, 2025 Kia EV6, 2024 Kia EV6. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
