SERVICE RECORDS
Using the Service Records tab, the two main features of the service records tab can be used to verify that data was uploaded and sent from the MAHLE A/C Machine to Kia's warranty server. The information includes VIN# , RO# , Dealer Code , Refrigerant Used (quantity), Service Date & Time (of service performed) and the Send Status (of data transfer date).
If there are concerns with the record status and warranty claims, review the two points below;
- Records displaying "Send Status" with date but unable to submit a warranty claim; contact the Warranty Help Desk (800) 225-3217.
- Records not found; verify the record has been sent from the MAHLE unit.
For service repairs, contact MAHLE directly through the Service Portal (via KDealer) or by calling 1(800) 468-2321. DO NOT contact your local service center directly. Warranty and Maintenance Plans may not be covered.
TECH SUPPORT
