The purpose of the AUTO LINE is to settle disputes between vehicle manufacturers and customers. The AUTO LINE
staff will record the details of your concern by telephone and will ask for the same information as in Step 2.
The AUTO LINE program consists of two parts - mediation and arbitration. The BBB AUTO LINE staff will provide
suggestions for resolving the problem during mediation. If a satisfactory resolution has not been achieved during
mediation, you will have the opportunity to present your case personally before an impartial person or three person panel.
This is the arbitration part of AUTO LINE. The arbitrator(s) will make a decision after the arbitration hearing.
If you accept the decision, it will be legally binding on you and Kia. However, in some states, if the decision is not
accepted, it may be introduced either by you or Kia as evidence in subsequent court action. Disputes handled through the
BBB Auto Line process are usually resolved within 40 days of your contacting the BBB. If you have not contacted Kia
Motors America, Inc. first regarding your complaint, the arbitration process will take no longer than 47 days.
You must use BBB AUTO LINE prior to seeking remedies available to you through a court action pursuant to the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (the “ACT”). In addition, you must use BBB AUTO LINE if you are required to do so
prior to seeking remedies available under the “Lemon Law” of your state. However, your state law permits and if you
choose to seek remedies which are not created by the Act, you are not required to use BBB AUTO LINE, although that
option is still available to you. The following section has been developed with information on contacting Kia and on the
basic provisions of your State’s “Lemon Laws”. In some states, your Kia dealership may provide you with Lemon Law
disclosure information in addition to the booklet in accordance with state law. Other states may have their own state-
operated complaint resolution processes. Your eligibility for this program is determined by your vehicle’s age, mileage
and other contributing factors.
