Tl*the contact owns a 2009 kia motor borrego. While driving at approximately 10 MPH, the contact applied the brakes but they did not engage; the failure resulted in a crash.

The failure and current mileages were approximately 20,000.
On my new kia borrego, 2009 with 6000 miles on it. While driving on the high way I was trying to stop quickly from 70 miles to avoid hitting the car in the front of me who suddenly stop due to some construction on the high way. I hit the brake very hard. The car start pulsating and shaking very hard. It was almost impossible to control the steering wheel. It was a horrifying moment before finally the car speed went to about 15 miles.
