Consumer Description

WHEN IT IS RAINING AND IT SEEM IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE GETS WET FROM PUDDLES IN THE ROADWAY. THE BATTERY LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT. MY CAR DOES NOT STALL AND AFTER PUMPING THE BRAKE SOME TO DRY OUT THE BRAKE THEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT ON THE DASH AND I GET THE POWER STEERING BACK. FROM THIS LIST OF OTHER HAVING THE VERY SAME ISSUE KIA NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS. THIS JUST STARTED WITHIN THE PAST 9 MONTHS AND I HAVE HAD THE CAR SINCE 2010. KIA CAN'T KEEP IGNORING THIS ISSUE.
