When it is raining or after rain if there are still puddles in the road, when the car goes through any puddles the steering locks up for at least 45 seconds. I had my daughter learning how to drive and this happened to her. I should not have to worry about putting my child at risk like this especially with the price of this car. I've had the power steering pump replaced and it still does this. My ESC light has been on since I got the car. So any time I hit the smallest bump or when trying to stop on a bumpy road or on snow or ice, the car locks up. The brakes go out and its like everything in the car locks up for a few seconds. It is terrifying especially when trying to stop at a light. I have never in my life experienced so many issues in a vehicle before owning a Kia Rondo. I have had the whole front end suspension replaced, new tires and rims and a month later the car is wobbling again.

Front springs breaking and it is numerous model years. Kia knows about this and has done nothing. When you turn the springs twist and break. This is the 2nd time for me that my front springs have broken. Found during a inspection.
