The car and any removed part are available for inspection on request.  SYMPTOM/WARNING: The oil pressure warning light first appeared in October 2026 and comes on intermittently when the engine is warm and the car is stopped or idling, then goes off once moving. It is becoming more frequent. No other lamps, messages, noises, or leaks. The engine runs quietly, confirmed by Kia repair shop. No crash, fire, or injury.  SAFETY RISK: I cannot tell whether the sensor is faulty or oil pressure is truly low. If pressure is low, the engine could be damaged or fail while driving in traffic. If the sensor is faulty, the light is unreliable.  CONFIRMATION: Dipstick level has been normal. Oil was changed 06/13/2026 and 10/06/2026; the light lessened, then returned. A Kia dealer inspected the car and recommended replacing the sending unit, quoted at $3,060.72 since the intake manifold must be removed. The dealer has NOT measured oil pressure and says it can only do so during that repair. An independent shop has not measured it either.  MANUFACTURER: Kia declined warranty coverage through the dealer, saying the part is not covered. Kia's warranty extension TSB ENG237/WTY026 covers oil pressure switch problems on 2014-2016 Cadenzas built through 01/07/2016 (part 94750-37100). My car uses 94751-3C000 and was built later. I do not know if the new part is a revision or if the same failure occurs in later 3.3L models.  I ask NHTSA to review this in 2017+ Kia 3.3L vehicles.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"KIA","productModel":"CADENZA","manufacturer":"Kia America, Inc."}]}]}
