Will Kia's seven-year warranty still be valid if some of the services are late?

I'm considering buying a Kia Niro 2021 hybrid from a reputable local family business from whom I've bought before, but my concern is the 7 year warranty. It was registered in May 2021 and the first two services were carried out on time, the third service was in early in December 2023 when the vehicle was sold. The next service was in January 2025 a month late and the current service will again be in excess of a year. Although it's had four stamps to date, all within the date of registration, if I buy it there will be two late services. Do you think this will affect the 7 year warranty?

We would suggest looking at the vehicle paperwork for the warranty document which should provide the terms in respective of how and when the vehicle is serviced, or failing that we would contact Kia UK directly for confirmation if the warranty is still valid despite the timing of the services.
