Yes, you should be using a weight distribution hitch when you are towing with your 2022 Kia Carnival. Anytime you are towing a trailer that is over 50% of your vehicles weight you should use a weight distribution system. It looks like your Carnival weighs 4,376 to 4,727 lbs depending on the trim style. I have linked an article that will help you with understanding the function and needs of weight distribution systems.
I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control item # EQ37040ET. This system has a maximum tongue weight of 400 lbs so it will be perfect for your needs. This system also has built in sway control. The Sway control brackets ensure that your trailer stays in line with your Kia. A shank is included with a total height adjustment of 7-1/2". This shank will give you a maximum rise of 7" and a maximum drop of 3" which should be plenty of adjustability for your Kia. I have linked a review video for you to take a look at.
If you have more questions about towing go ahead and email me and I will be more than happy to help you.
