What Are Over-the-Air Software Updates?

Over-the-Air (OTA) software updates allow your Kia to improve performance, upgrade features, and enhance safety without a trip to the service center. Your car automatically downloads and installs updates, ensuring you always have the latest technology for a smoother and safer driving experience.

How Do OTA Updates Work?

Automatic Downloads

Your Kia downloads the latest updates while parked, keeping your powertrain, battery management system, and safety features running optimally. You’ll get a notification on the Kia Access app or your car’s infotainment screen when an update is ready.

Easy Installation

Once an update is available, a message will appear on your infotainment screen. Follow the instructions to install it. Just make sure your car is in Park, the parking brake is on, and the lights are off. Since you can’t drive during the update, it’s best to do it while parked at home, work, or another safe location.

Monitor Progress and See What’s New

You can track the progress of updates on your vehicle’s display. Once complete, you’ll get a notification and a QR code to scan for details on what’s changed, whether it’s improved performance, new features, or enhanced safety technology.

How to Enable OTA Updates on Your Kia

Check Your Kia’s Eligibility

Visit Kia’s website and enter your VIN (vehicle identification number) or model to see if your car supports OTA updates.

Activate Kia Connect

To receive OTA updates, you need an active Kia Connect subscription. If you’re unsure how to activate it, our team at Crain Kia of Fayetteville is happy to help.

Let Your Kia Do the Work

Once everything is set up, your Kia will download updates automatically, and you’ll get a notification when it’s time to install. If you need assistance, our experts are always available.
