Consumer Description

I OWN A 2005 SATURN VUE ALL WHEEL DRIVE THAT WHEN THE ROADS ARE ICY OR SNOW PACKED IS VERY HARD TO CONTROL. WHEN YOU TRY TO TURN A CORNER YOU DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS GOING TO TURN OR NOT. THE REAR WHEELS KICK IN WHEN THE FRONT WHEELS SLIP AND I HAVE HAD IT SLIDE SIDEWAYS CLOSE TO HITTING A CURB. ALL FOUR TIRES ARE TURNING AND THERE IS NO CONTROL. THE BRAKING IS ALSO AS BAD SOME OF THE SAME PROBLEMS. I KNOW THAT THIS VEHICLE IS NO LONGER BEING BUILT BUT I STILL FELL THAT THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO, I HAVE HEARD THAT THERE HAS BEEN SOME ACCIDENTS ON SLICK ROADS AND I THINK THAT THIS MAY BY A BIGGER PROBLEM THAN JUST MINE. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM, NOT SOMETHING THAT HAS JUST STARTED HAPPENING. MOST OF THE TIME THE VUE HAS BEEN DRIVEN ON DRY ROADS OR SNOW NOT THAT MUCH ON ICE. *TR
