Brake Electric Antilock Problems of Kia Motor Spectra

I was coming to a stop, depressing my brakes and the pedal went all the way to the floor, failing to stop my car. I pressed the brake pedal again, the car jumped forward and then came to a stop. This happened twice today, neither time causing an accident, but came close to hitting a house and a gas station.

On the afternoon of the 25th day of may in the year 2006, my wife and myself were driving down I-5 sb to mamc for her hospital appt. We were then involved in a multi-car accident off next to the off ramp of exit 123. We tried to slow down in time before noticing the just wrecked vehicle in front of us and my abs in my 2006 kia Spectra sx did not engage, my tires then locked up and I skidded and slid into the stopped vehicle. We hit them doing approx. 35-45 mph and smashed in the front of our car. At that time my airbags (both driver and passenger) did not deploy. There has been no corrective action from the time of the accident.

: the contact stated while driving 45 mph the vehicle rear ended another vehicle that had stopped without warning. This was a full front to rear incident. There was pre impact braking, the wheels locked up on the vehicle causing it to skid into the rear of the stopped vehicle. The air bag did not deploy. Seat belts were in use and no injuries were sustained. There was a police report filed at the scene. The vehicle was towed to an independent repair and is awaiting inspection.

The contact stated that while driving at 35 mph the brakes did not respond and the contact's vehicle crashed into another car. Updated 12/27/05.
