Optima L4-2.4L (2001)
Crankshaft Position Sensor: Recalls
Recall 03V067000: Crankshaft Position Sensor Defect
DEFECT: On certain vehicles equipped with 2.5 and 2.7-liter V6 engines, the Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) cases did not meet dimensional
specifications. Internal gaps within the cases allowed epoxy to contact the printed circuit board, which resulted in cracking of the circuit board capacitor.
A damaged CKP capacitor could result in engine stalling.
REMEDY: Dealers will replace the CKP. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification is expected to begin during April 2003. Owners may
contact Kia at 1-800-222-5500.
