Awesome. Thank you for the info.

Not sure I would want them to do all of that work for a little washer fluid leaking.

Probably paranoid, but not a fan of trim removal unless absolutely necessary. Tech breaks a clip, doesn’t care, not his/her car and puts back together. Your now the owner of a rattle...

I assume this means the newer models have this fix already installed. Can anyone confirm with a build after October 28, 2019?

For those paranoid about your dealer doing the work, the check valve ass'y is available from Kia. MSRP: $2.50 Part# 9888634000 FFF
Seems simple enough for a DIY project.

Enjoy the ride.

Feb 4 build date - have not noticed a lot of water coming out after spraying - just a few drips. I doubt that a solution with zero leakage is cost prohibitive.

November build, no issues with rear wiper fluid spray.

Had this fix done when car was in the shop for the rear hvac tsb. Looks promising. No washer fluid streak yet on rear window.
