The Kia Promise covers 142 countries and all vehicles with original Kia warranties that expire between February 1 and April 30, 2020. The programme extends the warranty of all eligible vehicles for another 60 days.

Kia Motors believes that more than 500,000 customers worldwide could benefit from the Kia Promise warranty extension.

Our goal is to help to alleviate any concerns our customers have about vehicle maintenance during periods of social distancing.”

Kia Motors Nigeria will contact all affected customers via emails and phone numbers in the coming days, with more details on the Kia Promise programme.

Prioritising the safety, health and the well-being of its customers, business partners, and employees, Kia Motors continues to closely monitor COVID-19 developments in communities where it does business. The company continuously strives to prevent infections at its facilities while working with federal, state and local authorities, complying with all standards set by those entities.
