Brakes completely locked up during my attempt to stop the vehicle does have abs and that is supposed to allow the wheels to keep moving so that you can try to maneuver and when I made contact with the other vehicle the airbag never deployed

Forte

  • 28 miles
Vehicle was purchased with 28 miles on 4/10/2018. The vehicle makes a grinding noise upon applying the brakes. It doesnt matter what speed you are at the brakes grind in reverse or drive when applying the brakes. Kia dealership already replaced caliper says it's normal noise when Kia Forte is stopped. Would like to know anyone experienced same issue
