Consumer Description

THIS CAR ALMOST CONTINUOUSLY WANDERS FROM ONE SIDE OF A LANE TO THE OTHER. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ESPECIALLY IN TIGHT TRAFFIC CONDITIONS. YOU SPEND ALL OF YOUR TIME STEERING BACK AND FORTH TO TRY AND KEEP IT GOING STRAIGHT. ON BREEZY DAYS FORGET IT, YOU CAN FEEL THE CAR SWAYING BACK AND FORTH UNDER YOU MAKING IT EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. I FILLED OUT A QUESTIONNAIRE FROM GM WHEN I FIRST GOT THE CAR AND TOLD THEM "BETWEEN THE SLOPPY SUSPENSION AND THE OVER SENSITIVE STEERING, THIS IS THE WORST CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN" AND I MEANT IT.*AK
