Description of the problem	Hello, i have a 2007 kia rondo lx 4 cylinder. From the day of the purchase the right front tire sometimes makes noises and during the rain the noise is more apparent. I took the vehicle to the dealer three times for this reason and they could not figure out what the issue was. Also once the esc light was blinking and i took the car to the dealer again and they were unable to find the problem. The esc sensor is going to be replaced next week. What concerns me is that i was informed that the brake lights may not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed. Last year my car was hit from the back twice while it was at a stop position. In the second accident it was a hit and run, i was in a traffic on a highway and the other driver hit my car from the back. He screamed from his window "check your lights", now i understand that this accident could have been the result of the brake lights not working causing another vehicle to hit me. I was not able to find the driver and was forced to pay for the repairs myself. It cost me $1235. 30, out of which $190. 25 was used to order a back bumper and $10. 68 for side bracket and $19. 37 for right guard bracket and i paid to the zoom auto body shop(located at 240 n. Hill avenue, pasadena, ca 91106) $915. 11. The first accident was similar and now i am wondering whether my vehicle's non-functioning brake light could have been the cause as well. That accident cost me $2461, lucky the other vehicle's owner's insurance paid for that. Both cases are still open. I was told to contact you, hopefully, you can assist me somehow. Thank you for your time. Updated 02/04/10.*jb

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
