How a vehicle from Kia affects insurance costs

Kias are relatively affordable vehicles, making insurance more affordable as well. These cars are not costly to repair or replace, which also helps to bring down the cost of insurance. Newer Kia models also do well in safety tests, another factor insurance companies consider when determining the cost of your insurance premium.

Kia roadside assistance

New Kias get free roadside assistance through Kia’s Extra Care Roadside Assistance Program for up to 5 years or 100,000 km, whichever comes first. The Kia roadside assistance service includes:

• Towing due to mechanical breakdown
• Emergency battery jump start
• Flat tire change
• Gas delivery if you run out of fuel
• Lockout service if you lost your key
• Trip interruption services

To use Kia roadside assistance, call Kia’s 24/7 roadside hotline at 1-866-444-KIA1 (5421). You’ll need to provide your vehicle’s VIN when you call.
