2016 Kia RIO Brakes Problems

“We were doing a lot of stop and go driving in warm weather. I noticed braking seemed to be normal at first but just before the accident I press the brake and the pedal went to the floor and the vehicle wouldn’t . I hit the car in front of me. My vehicle was presumably totaled. There was lots of fluids on the floor.”

I'm a fairly patient person, but this has really gotten me sideways. …”
