yes it dose
actually NO it Doesn't... i have a 2001 sportage limeted ex.. and my belt broke at 70,000 miles.. it runs a NON interference engine.. i towed it home replaced belt and away i went.. if im not mistaken it is one of the only engines that Mazda makes that is non interference.. as long as your Kia has 2.0 DOHC u will be fine.. just make sure to time it right...
