Check your Kia Service History

Yes. Since around 2012, Kia main dealers log every service digitally in the official manufacturer database. We search that database directly, so a record can usually be found from your VIN or registration even when the paper service book is missing.

Kia recommends every 12 months or 10,000 miles. Always follow the service indicator or the manufacturer's guidelines in your owner's manual.

Pulled straight from the official Kia database, the report shows services logged by authorised Kia dealers from 2012 onwards — dates, mileage, work performed, service type and dealership. Every report also includes full MOT history and vehicle details.

No. We search the official manufacturer database, which only holds services logged by authorised Kia dealers. Work done at independent garages won't appear, so a car serviced outside the main-dealer network may show few records or none.

Yes. You only need the 17-character VIN, which is on the V5C document or visible through the windscreen — no ownership verification or dealer visit required.

A documented Kia main-dealer service history supports resale value, warranty validity and buyer confidence. Cars with a full, verifiable manufacturer service record typically sell for more.

Kia UK does not currently offer a centralised online service record system through MyKia or Kia Connect. Service records are held as entries in the official Service Book and printouts from the servicing dealership. To verify service history, you'll need to contact the dealerships that performed the work. Service records are crucial for Kia's 7-year warranty claims. If you're buying a used Kia and need to verify dealer service history, Service History Check searches for any dealer service records from 2012 onwards for £9.99.
