Did you own or lease a 2016 - 2017 Kia Optima or 2017 Kia Sportage? If you paid for a failed window regulator that qualifies for repair, you could be eligible for up to $400 per repair - or, if you still own/lease the vehicle, a $40 Kia Dealer Service Card.
CLAIM DEADLINE: NOVEMBER 23, 2026
Don't guess whether your Kia qualifies. Check the VIN!
STEP 1: CHECK YOUR VIN
Use the official settlement site for VIN Lookup. Check to see whether your vehicle is included. You'll need your vehicle's 17-character VIN.
Find the VIN on your:
- Driver-side dashboard
- Vehicle registration
- Insurance paperwork
STEP 2: FIND YOUR CLASS MEMBER ID
If you received a settlement notice, look for your Class Member ID on the notice.
Lost your notice? Contact the Settlement Administrator or call (833) 930-0988 to ask about your claim information.
STEP 3: GATHER YOUR DOCUMENTS
If you're requesting repair reimbursement, have:
· VIN
· Class Member ID
· Repair invoice/order
· Repair date
· Mileage when the repair occurred
· Amount you paid
· Proof of payment
If you're requesting the $40 Dealer Service Card, you'll need documentation showing that you currently own or lease the eligible Kia.
HOW MUCH COULD YOU GET?
For qualifying out-of-pocket repairs, reimbursement depends on the vehicle's mileage when the window-regulator failure occurred:
|
Mileage |
Potential
Reimbursement |
|
Under 35,000 |
100% — up to $400 |
|
35,001–55,000 |
80% — up to $320 |
|
55,001–75,000 |
60% — up to $240 |
|
75,001–125,000 |
45% — up to $180 |
|
125,001+ |
40% — up to $160 |
Up to four qualifying window-regulator replacements may be eligible per VIN, subject to the settlement's rules.

Current owners/lessees may choose a $40 Kia Dealer Service Card instead of repair reimbursement.

Enter your information, provide your VIN and Class Member ID, select your benefit, upload your supporting documents, review everything carefully, and submit.

STEP 5: DON'T MISS THE DEADLINE - NOVEMBER 23, 2O26
Mailed claims must be postmarked by November 23, 2026.
The settlement has received preliminary approval, but final approval is still pending. The current Final Approval Hearing is scheduled for January 7, 2027.
That doesn't mean you should wait.
