The contact owns a 2007 Kia Rio. While driving 50-55 mph downhill, the brakes and steering wheel failed. The contact lost control of the vehicle. The weather was not a factor. While driving between 45-47 mph when the pavement is wet or during a sudden stop, the vehicle fishtails or slides. The dealer stated that nothing was wrong with the vehicle. The contact does not feel safe driving the vehicle with her children on board. The powertrain was unknown. The current mileage was 9,000 and failure mileage was 2,455.
