do you have to get the replacement bolt from the dealer, for the huge bolt prob

That is what i needed. Thow it does not sound like kia is standing behind the problem on this one. Seems i should do routine inspections to stay on top of this. Any advice on what to whatch out for. Other than a wobbly pulley on the main crank

I really don't think Kia is to blame!.. Every one that I've had to fix had been removed and put back in without enough torque... Now it may be some cases of the factory bolt breaking but I've not see it... So I guess if it's not been removed.. no worries! IF it is removed, install a new bolt and tighten the damn thing up!!.. I even use a drop or two of red Loctite!.. There's a vid on YouTube that shows some --- working on one that says the locator pin broke and that's what is causing the problem.. What a DA... The pin sheers off when the bolt gets loose!

Thanks. Bolt not removed, so i will take that as good omen. I just need to investigate to find out if bolt was done at time of recall.
