Official summary

VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN: OWNER NOTIFICATION (SC350) - This document is the owner notification advising that Kia is conducting a Voluntary Service Campaign to upgrade the Body Domain Controller (BDC) software logic in certain 2026 MY Sportage, Sportage Hybrid (HEV), or Sportage Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) vehicles equipped with Forward/Reverse Parking Distance Warning (PDW).

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
