Kia 7 Year Warranty
Your brand-new Kia comes with the assurance of Australia’s First 7 Year Unlimited Kilometre Warranty, unlike offerings from other car brands which cease to operate after you hit a certain mileage. We knew we had to go the extra mile, because a longer warranty is a better warranty. It’s easy for us to back up our vehicles with the best warranty in the industry. After all, they are built not only to perform but to last.
Capped Price Servicing
At Kia, we believe that when you purchase a vehicle you should have a clear understanding of what it will cost to maintain your vehicle and optimise its value. That's why we've introduced the Kia Capped Price Service program.
Roadside Assistance
Every New Kia already comes supported by 12 months of complimentary Roadside Assistance. Even with the greatest care in the world, there are times when the unexpected happens. You lose your keys. You run out of fuel. Or you leave on the lights and need a jump-start. That’s why nationwide Kia Roadside Assist makes sense.
