Consumer Description

VEHICLE CONSTANTLY "BOTTOMS OUT" OVER MINOR POT HOLES IN ROAD OR OVER SPEED BUMPS...IF DIP IN FREEWAY AT FREEWAY SPEEDS THE JOLT WILL KNOCK YOUR TEETH OUT. BEEN TO DEALER AND INDEPENDENT MECHANICS AND ALL SAY THAT SUSPENSION SYSTEM IS INTACT AND NOTHING BENT OR BROKEN. IT IS HORRIBLE HOWEVER TO HAVE TO EXPERIENCE. THE SHOCKS MUST BE HORRIBLE AND NOT WELL BUILT FOR THE CAR. HAVE HAD CONSTANT TIRE WEAR FROM POOR ALIGNMENT AND AGAIN, IT'S THE FRONT SUSPENSION THAT DOES NOT HOLD. *JS
