Common Kia Sportage ABS problems
One of the most common ABS problems experienced by Kia Sportage vehicles occurs at low speeds, when ABS assistance unexpectedly activates. This has become a common issue for both third-and-fourth-generation Sportage owners.

While the activation of ABS assistance at low speeds could be traced back to an electrical fault such as a faulty wheel speed sensor or a wiring issue, it’s often actually caused by a defective ABS unit. 

As you might know, many Kia Sportage vehicles experience problems with their ABS unit. In some third-generation Kia Sportage models (2012-2015), a faulty ABS module often loses communication with other control modules and causes the ABS and traction warning lights to illuminate. In many fourth-generation Kia Sportage models (2015-2019), a defective ABS unit often causes hydraulic problems, such as brake binding, imbalanced braking or the brake pedal sinking to the floor.

If you’re experiencing any of the aforementioned symptoms, or simply suspect your ABS unit is faulty, send it to us for comprehensive testing.

Why do so many Kia Sportage ABS units experience problems?
ABS unit failure in Kia Sportage vehicles commonly occurs due to recurrent internal faults in some units. This can happen for a variety of reasons, but typically, unit failure occurs as a result of component degradation or a design flaw.

Of course, when a Kia Sportage’s ABS unit fails, serious braking problems are not far behind. This is why it’s so important to resolve unit failure properly. Rather than sourcing a brand-new ABS module from the dealer, we’d recommend having your Kia Sportage’s ABS unit remanufactured. This way there’s much less risk of the internal fault re-establishing itself in the near future.
