Consumer Description
THE CAR IS SQUIRLY ON SNOW AND ICE, FEELS LIKE THE STEERING WHEEL HAS PLAY IN IT AND BACK END KEEPS MOVING. FEELS LIKE IM TRYING TO KEEP IT ON THE ROAD AND ARMS GET TIRED. THIS IS GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE HIGHWAY. ONLINE FORUMS THEY DESCRIBE IT AS GHOST WALKING. IT STARTED THE FIRST WINTER I GOT THE CAR AND I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT NOW IN THE WINTER AND I EVEN HAVE STUDDED TIRES ON IT.
