Consumer Description

THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED AS I WAS DRIVING TO MICHIGAN FROM INDIANA, ON A COLD BUT CLEAR DAY. HALF WAY INTO MICHIGAN I RAN INTO A LIGHT DUSTING OF SNOW, AND BEFORE I KNEW IT MY REAR END STARTED SLIDING TO THE RIGHT. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I HIT A PATCH OF ICE, BUT I SOON REALIZED I'M THE ONLY ONE SLIDING ALL OVER THE ROAD. MY TOP SPEED 40 TO 45 MPH. EVERYONE WAS PASSING ME WITH NO PROBLEMS. WHEN I GOT TO MY PARENTS HOUSE, I WENT TO DISCOUNT TIRE AND BOUGHT NEW RIMS AND SNOW TIRES. THE RESULT NO DIFFERENT. LAST WEEK I WAS HEADING TO CHICAGO, AND RAN INTO RAIN AT 70 MPH. SAME SITUATION AS BEFORE. THE REAR STEPPED OUT AND I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I'M TERRIFIED DRIVING THIS CAR. *TR
