Chung Sung-Eun, head of South Korea's second-largest automaker, Kia Motors, has resigned to take responsibility for the recall of 85,900 cars over faulty electrical wiring, the company said Tuesday.

The four models involved are the Soul, Sorento and Borrego sport utility vehicles, and the Cadenza sedan. In China, a Kia Motors joint venture, Dongfeng Yueda Kia Motor Co separately recalled 18,147 Sorento, Borrego and Soul models Monday.
