Kia parts and accessories installed at the time of a retail sale of a new motor vehicle are covered by the Kia New Vehicle Warranty applicable to your vehicle, depending on the vehicle’s use. If accessories are installed by an Authorised Kia Dealer after the retail sale, they will be covered for the remainder of the Kia New Vehicle Warranty period or for 1 year, whichever is the greater. In the case where a replacement part is installed under the Kia New Vehicle Warranty during the vehicle’s warranty period, the part is covered for the remainder of the Kia New Vehicle Warranty period only. Kia replacement parts and accessories that are not installed by an Authorised Kia Dealer are covered by Parts and Accessory Warranty for 1 year or 20,000 km’s, whichever occurs first.

The Kia New Vehicle Warranty will continue to apply to vehicles that may have been modified. However, Kia does not warrant the workmanship of, nor any part, component, assembly, equipment or accessory that has not been supplied by and approved by Kia for the specified purpose. Should any defect be caused by or be attributable to any modification not carried out at the direction of Authorised Kia Dealer, the Kia New Vehicle Warranty will not cover any part, component, assembly, equipment or accessory used in the modification, nor any part, component, assembly, equipment or accessory that has been damaged due to a failure which is attributable to the modification.

Kia does not manufacture LPG compatible engines for vehicles imported to Brunei. Therefore, Kia advises that LPG should not be used in its range of petrol vehicles. The use of LPG in an engine not specifically designed for use with this type of fuel may lead to excessive wear, drivability concerns and engine management issues.

If a LPG system is fitted to a Kia engine/vehicle, the Kia New Vehicle Warranty does not apply to the LPG system nor to any conditions/defects that are attributable to the LPG system installation or to operation of the engine using LPG. Refer to the previous question - ‘Will my warranty be affected if I have the vehicle modified?’
