Consumer Description

THE DYNAMIC RIDE CONTROL (DRC) FAILED IN MY CAR, AND I UNDERSTAND IT FREQUENTLY FAILS IN THIS TYPE OF CAR. IT HAS JUMPY HANDLING AND SIDESTEPPING OVER BUMPS ON THE INTERSTATE. ROUNDING CURVES AT SPEED OVER EXPANSION JOINTS IS PLAIN DANGEROUS WHEN THE DRC FAILS. THE CAR BOUNCES, WHEELS LOSE CONTACT AND CAR SIDESTEPS. OBVIOUSLY THE FACT THAT IT REPEATEDLY FAILS IN THESE CARS IS THE ISSUE. *TR
