2006 TOYOTA SIENNA Wheels Problems

Swollen lug nuts. Won’t fit any wrench. Affects ability to remove a tire in case of needing to repair a flat tire.

THE SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT (CAR WITH SWERVE LINES) STARTED COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE TURNING ON HIGHWAYS ETC. (BUT NOT WHEN ANY RISK OF TIRE SLIPPING). THEN VSC LIGHT ALSO CAME ON AND ALARM SOMETIMES SOUNDED. VISIT TO OUR OWN MECHANIC, NO PROBLEMS FOUND. IN THE LAST 2 YEARS THE ABS SYSTEM HAS ACTIVATED (DAILY) IT UNEXPECTEDLY APPLIES THE BRAKES WHILE IN MOTION. IT IS ON SPECIFIC TYPES OF CURVE AND WHILE DRIVING AT LEAST 30MPH, BUT HAS DONE AT 35, 55, 70 MPH, ON SLIGHT OR MEDIUM TURNS (NOT REAL SHARP TURNS), GOING UPHILL OR DOWNHILL AND LEFT OR RIGHT. TOOK MY MECHANIC FOR A RIDE WITH THE DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER HOOKED UP, IT DID THE ABS BRAKING, WARNING LIGHT, AND BEEPING 5 TIMES BUT COMPUTER SHOWED NO CODES. SUGGESTED RESETTING YAW WHICH WE DID, IT DID NOT HELP. SUGGESTED CALLING TOYOTA, THEY WERE NO HELP, SAID THEY HAD NEVER HEARD...

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, VSC LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT. ALL 3 LIGHTS CAME ON AT SAME TIME. THEY SAY IT'S THE GAS CAP, IT'S NOT THE GAS CAP, THEY SAY TO RESET IT, THAT DOESN'T WORK. I WAS DRIVING HOME, NOTHING HAPPENED, THE LIGHTS JUST CAME ON. NO WARNING SOUND, NOTHING TO INDICATE THERE WAS A PROBLEM, MY CAR SEEMS TO DRIVE JUST FINE, BUT THE LIGHTS WON'T GO OFF, AND I HAVE 3 KIDS THAT I TAKE AND PICK UP FROM SCHOOL

THE CONTACT STATED THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR.

CORROSION ON OEM 17' ALUMINUM WHEEL RIMS CAUSED AIR TO SLOWLY LEAK OUT BETWEEN RIM & TIRE. LEAKING OCCURRED OVER SEVERAL DAYS WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED OR BEING DRIVEN. TIRES WERE RE-MOUNTED THREE TIMES TO CORRECT PROBLEM. TIRE SHOP HAD TO CLEAN & THEN POLISH RIM MATING SURFACE TO REMOVE CORROSION TO GET TIRES TO SEAT & HOLD AIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V273000 (WHEELS). THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO SUPPLY THE PART FROM THE MANUFACTURER FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD BE REPAIRED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

RECENTLY PURCHASE THIS VAN AND IT HAS SEVERE CORROSION ON THE ALUMINUM WHEELS AND AIR SEEMS TO BE SLOWLY LEAKING FROM AT LEAST ONE OF THEM. THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS PROBLEM IF IT ACCELERATES AS ONE TRAVELS DOWN THE ROAD.

ALL FOUR WHEELS SHOW EXCESSIVE CORROSION. TOYOTA SAYS THIS IS NORMAL AND NOT COVERED BY ANY RECALL OR WARRANTY. CORROSION MAY BE SIMPLY COSMETIC, BUT OUR CONCERN IS THAT IT WILL BECOME STRUCTURAL OVER TIME CAUSING EITHER WHEEL FAILURE OR LOSS OF TIRE PRESSURE. SEE PHOTOS.

OUR VEHICLE HAS 119,698 MILES OF WEAR. WE HAD OUR VEHICLE SERVICED AT A REPUTABLE DEALER. WHILE STATIONARY, BOTH A WHEEL STUD (DURING TIRE ROTATION), AND THE OIL PUMP TENSIONER BOLT HOLE (DURING SERVICE) BROKE. DEALER TOLD US EXCESSIVE FORCE WAS NOT USED. I BELIEVE INFERIOR METAL USED IN MANUFACTURING.

THERE APPEARS TO BE A RECALL FOR THE SPARE TIME MOUNTING FOR THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE WAITED MONTHS AND MONTHS FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS. THE DEALER HAS NO ESTIMATE FOR WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. IN THE INTERIM, I MUST EITHER RIDE WITHOUT A SPARE OR THE SPARE IS LOOSE IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. DATE OF INCIDENT (ON YOUR FORM) IS APPROXIMATE.

HAVE AN 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA WITH 17" FACTORY ORIGINAL ALLOY ALUMINUM WHEELS AND ALL 4 WHEELS HAVE THEIR PROTECTIVE COATINGS BUBBLING UP FROM UNDERNEATH AND PEELING OFF. EVEN THOUGH THE VAN IS NEARLY 9 YEARS OLD NOW, IT ONLY HAS 72000 MILES ON IT. BUT EVEN SO, IT HAS HAD THE BUBBLING UP COATING ISSUE FOR 4 OR 5 YEARS ALREADY ACCORDING TO THE LAST OWNER I BOUGHT IT FROM. LOOKS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA SIENNAS WITH THE 17" ALLOY WHEELS IN THE AREA HERE IN THE UPPER MIDWEST AS MOST I'VE SEEN HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. CONCERNED THAT THE NOW EXPOSED METAL WILL CORRODE QUICKLY AND THEN AT SOME POINT DEVELOP INTO A SAFETY CONCERN. THIS VAN IS A HEAVY VEHICLE COMPARED TO REGULAR CARS ON THE ROAD SO I WOULD THINK PROBLEMS WOULD ARISE QUICKLY IF THERE WERE A WEAKNESS TO DEVELOP IN THE CORRODING...

I WAS SENT A RECALL NOTICE BY TOYOTA, INDICATING THAT THE "SPARE TIRE ASSEMBLY MAY CORRODE AND DETACH". I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER ON DECEMBER 19, 2014, AND THEY REMOVED THE SPARE TIRE AND PLACED IT IN THE VEHICLE IN A PLASTIC BAG. THEY DID NOT FIX IT PROPERLY. THE SPARE TIRE IS NOW OCCUPYING A LOT OF SPACE THAT I NEED FOR CARGO. THEY TOLD ME I WOULD RECEIVE A LETTER WHEN THE PROPER REMEDY WAS AVAILABLE. I CALLED TOYOTA THIS MORNING (MAY 21, 2015) AFTER WAITING FIVE MONTHS FOR THE LETTER. THE TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE THAT I SPOKE WITH SAID THAT THE PARTS WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE FOR THE REMEDY "IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS YEAR" BUT SHE COULD NOT EVEN GIVE ME THE MONTH IN WHICH THIS WOULD HAPPEN. I THINK IT IS TOO MUCH TO HAVE TO CARRY MY SPARE TIRE AROUND IN MY CARGO SPACE...

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

I WANT TO KNOW WHY TOYOTA IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET GETTING THE SPARE TIRE BRACKET AND CABLE CORRECTED. I WILL NOT HAVE MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER WITHOUT A MEANS TO REPLACE A FLAT TIRE WHEN THEY ARE TRAVELING. THE FIX IS SIMPLE NEW MECHANISM WITH STAINLESS STEEL CABLE AND ASSOCIATED HARDWARE. THE OFFER TO REMOVE THE TIRE AND PLACE THAT IN THE TRUNK IS AN INSULT AS IS NOT TO CARRY IT AND CALL TOYOTA IF THEY HAVE A FLAT. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR A VERY LONG TIME AND SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE. RECALL IS 14V273000. *TR

ALL FOUR ALLOY WHEELS ON THIS VEHICLE HAVE THE PAINT BUBBLING AND CHIPPING OFF LEAVING THE WHEEL EXTERIOR EXPOSED TO WEATHER AND FURTHER CORROSION. UNDERNEATH THE CHIPPED PAINT THE ALLOY IS CORRODING, POTENTIALLY COMPROMISING THE STRENGTH AND OVERALL INTEGRATY OF THE WHEELS. I HAVE EXPERIENCED AIR LOSS IN BOTH FRONT TIRES OVER THE COURSE OF JUST A FEW DAYS. MY LOCAL TIRE SHOP CHECKED BOTH FRONT TIRES FOR PUNCTURES BUT FOUND NOTHING. THEY THEN REMOVED THE TIRES FROM THE RIMS AND INDICATED THE RIMS HAD CORRODED AROUND THE OUTER DIAMETER OF THE RIM WHERE THE TIRE BEAD IS SUPPOSED TO SEAL. THEY CLEANED THE CORROSION FROM THE RIM INTERIOR AND APPLIED A BEAD SEALING COMPOUND THAT FILLS IN THE CORRODED AND PITTED BEAD AREA OF THE RIM ALLOWING THE TIRE BEAD TO SEAL AND HOLD AIR. WHEN IT COMES TIME TO ROTATE THE TIRES THE TECH PERSON INDICATED THAT I...

TOYOTA SIENNA RECALL FOR SPARE TIRE CARRIER MOVED THE SPARE TIRE TO THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT OF VEHICLE. THE TIRE WAS REMOVED FROM THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, PLACED IN A BAG, AND PLACED IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT. THE TIRE WAS NOT SECURED BY SERVICE AND IS FREE TO VIBRATE, SHAKE, AND ROLL WHEN TURNING. THIS WAS TO BE A TEMPORARY FIX, WITH THE PERMANENT SOLUTION TO BE DETERMINED BY TOYOTA. IT HAS BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS FROM THE RELEASE DATE OF THE RECALL AND THERE IS STILL NO PERMANENT SOLUTION, AND THERE IS NO ETA FOR A FIX AT THIS TIME, PER THE TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED AS IT IS LIMITING THE AVAILABLE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT SPACE, AND THE MOVEMENT OF THE UNSECURED SPARE TIRE IS DISTRACTING. WHAT REQUIREMENTS ARE THERE FOR CLOSING OUT ACTION ITEMS ON RECALLS AND FOR COMPLETING "PERMANENT" FIXES? *TR

THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN 'GRUMBLING' FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS. FINALLY TOOK IT IN AND THEY ARE HAVING TO REPLACE THE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS. I DON'T THINK THE BEARINGS SHOULD BE WEARING OUT IN JUST 100K MILES. *TR

ALL FOUR WHEELS HAVE SEVERE BUBBLING AND PEELING PAINT. SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR, I HAVE ALWAYS GONE TO THE TOYOTA DEALER FOR WORK AND THEY HAVE NOT PAID ANY ATTENTION TO THIS COMPLAINT. WHEN I DECIDED TO HAVE SOME WORK DONE WITH MY HUSBAND'S MECHANIC HE RAISED THE ISSUE. HE IS CONCERNED WITH THE RUST THAT IS OCCURRING AND WILL CONTINUE TO OCCUR OVER TIME WILL EVENTUALLY EFFECT OUR ABILITY TO PLACE NEW TIRES ON THE CAR AS THE RUST ENCROACHES INTO THE RIMS.

EXTREME WHEEL CORROSION OF ALL 4 ALLOY WHEELS ON 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA XLE AWD. PAINT IS FLAKING OFF, BEGAN AS BUBBLING A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. ONLY 65K ON THE VEHICLE. *TR

WHEELS ARE CORRODING EXCESSIVELY, THIS MAY CAUSE AIR LEAKS IN THE FUTURE. IT IS A 2006 WITH 74700 MILES, THIS SEEMS TO ME TO BE TOO SOON FOR THIS KIND OF WEAR. *TR

REMOVED THE RUN FLAT TIRES AND REPLACED THEM WITH REGULAR TIRES. I AM CONSTANTLY HAVING THE "TIRE BALANCE" LIGHT GO OFF IN MY CAR AND GETTING FLAT TIRES. EVER SINCE I SWITCHED THE TIRES THE ALIGNMENT HAS ALWAYS BEEN ISSUE. *TR

RUN-FLAT TIRE WENT FLAT WITHOUT THE WARNING LIGHT ACTIVATION. WHEN IT ACTIVATED, THERE WAS ALREADY A HOLE IN THE TIRE FROM RUNNING IT FLAT. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED, WHICH WAS ONE WEEK LATER, THERE WAS A HOLE BEFORE THE LIGHT CAME ON. THE TIRE PRESSURE IS CHECKED REGULARLY ON THIS VEHICLE. *TR

SPARE TIRE UNDERNEATH THE VAN FELL ON ROAD WHILE DRIVING WHILE I WAS DRIVING INTO A MALL. CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 18003314331 ABOUT THIS ISSUE. ALTHOUGH TOYOTA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM AND ISSUED A WARNING, THEY REFUSED TO FIX THIS ISSUE. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY, THERE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. *TR

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA WITH MOST RECENTLY THE POWER PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR THAT IS BROKEN AND DOES NOT OPEN OR CLOSE. THE DEALER FT. MYERS TOYOTA SAID THE PARTS WERE ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND MAY TAKE MONTHS TO GET THE PARTS TO FIX. THEY DID SAY THEY WOULD COVER UNDER WARRANTY. SECONDLY, MY STEERING ASSEMBLY NEEDED REPLACEMENT AT 80,000 MILES BECAUSE OF LEAKING FLUID AND I HAD TO PAY THE LABOR TO FIX. LASTLY, ALL 4 OF THE TIRE RIMS ON THE CAR HAVE PEELING, BUBBLING AND CHIPPING PAINT THAT IS EXPOSING THE METAL RIM. IT MAY CAUSE FURTHER CORROSION TO THE RIMS AND CAUSE A SAFETY PROBLEM TO THE WHEELS. GERMAIN TOYOTA IN NAPLES, FLA WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR WOULD NOT HELP WITH THE RIMS. FT. MYERS TOYOTA WHERE I GET THE CAR SERVICED TOLD ME ABOUT THE NATIONAL BACK ORDER PROBLEM...

SEVERE CORROSION ON ALLOY WHEELS ALLOWS AIR TO LEAK FROM TIRES. THIS RESULTS IS ALMOST CONSTANT LOW TIRE PRESSURE, UNDUE WEAR ON TIRES, AND SAFETY ISSUE. ISSUE BEGAN WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD ONLY 14000 MILES. DEALER REFINISHED TWO WHEELS UNDER WARRANTY BUT REFUSED TO REDO THE OTHER WHEELS OR THE SAME WHEELS WHEN THEY QUICKLY CORRODED AGAIN. ONGOING ISSUE VEHICLE NOW HAS 66000 MILES. IN MY OPINION WHEELS NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH ONES MADE FROM A DIFFERENT MATERIAL --- AFTERMARKET WHEELS DO NOT SEEM TO BE AVAILABLE FOR THIS VEHICLE (AWD). *TR

NO ACCIDENT OR FATALITIES, BUT I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE RAPIDLY DETERIORATING CONDITION OF ALL FOUR 17" ALLOY WHEELS (PAINTED ALUMINUM). CORROSION IS PROGRESSING SINCE THE TIME I FIRST NOTICED IT STARTING (APPROXIMATE INCIDENT DATE). CURRENT MILEAGE IS 74,000. THE PAINT IS BLISTERING STARTING AT THE INSIDE EDGE OF EACH WHEEL OPENING. IT IS QUITE SEVERE AND I AM CONCERNED THAT IF THIS IS NOT ADDRESSED, THE CORROSION MIGHT PROPAGATE A CRACK IN ONE OF THE WHEEL SPOKES. I HAVE ANOTHER CAR WITH MORE THAN TWICE THE MILEAGE WITH SIMILARLY PAINTED WHEELS WITH NO CORROSION AFTER 36 YEARS. THIS VEHICLE HAS SEEN THREE TIMES THE NUMBER OF WINTERS WITH SALTED ROADS. MY 1986 PORSCHE 944 WASN'T WASHED IN THE WINTER ANY MORE FREQUENTLY THAN THE TOYOTA. IT APPEARS THIS PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA IS SO PREVALENT THAT THEY PREFER DISGRUNTLED CUSTOMERS OVER RESPONSIBLY ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

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

WITHIN 1 YEAR OF PURCHASING VEHICLE NEW THE WHEELS STARTED TO SHOW SIGNS CORROSION IN THE FORM OF BUBBLING OF THE FINISH. WE CONTACTED OUR LOCAL DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO ROAD SALT AND ME NOT CLEANING THEM PROPERLY AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO REPLACE THEM. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER SHORTLY BEFORE THE WARRANTY RAN OUT AND AGAIN WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS OUR FAULT AND WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ONE LAST TIME AFTER THE WARRANTY AND WERE TOLD SINCE THE WARRANTY WAS UP THEY COULD DO NOTHING FOR US. ALL 4 WHEELS ARE NOW CORRODED SEVERELY. LARGE CHUNKS OF PAINT ROUTINELY FALL OFF DURING WASHING. I'M WORRIED ABOUT SAFETY AT THIS POINT AND PLAN TO REPLACE THE RIMS AT MY OWN EXPENSE. I'VE OWNED MULTIPLE CARS WITH SIMILARLY...

CHROME FINISH ON WHEELS IS BUBBLING AND PEELING OFF. *JS

ALL 4 WHEELS ON MY SIENNA HAVE THEIR PLATING PEELING OFF AND POSSIBLY SUBJECTING THE WHEELS TO RUST AND DETERIORATION. I KEEP MY WHEELS CLEAN AND, WHILE CLEANING THEM RECENTLY, I NOTICED WHAT I FEEL MAY BE RUSTING WHERE THE PLATING IS PEELING. I MENTIONED THIS WHEN I HAD MY CAR INSPECTED AND ALSO REGISTERED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA CORPORATION.

I BOUGHT A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA IN DECEMBER.,2006, THE FOLLOWING SEPTEMBER WHILE COMING BACK FROM VACATION I HAD A BLOWOUT ON MY FACTORY INSTALLED BRIDGESTONE TIRE. I DO NOT NECESSARILY BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS THE TIRES, RATHER, THE ALLOY WHEELS, AS THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT GOES ON FREQUENTLY, THE WHEELS HAVE BEEN PEELING SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW, WHEN I INQUIRED ABOUT A PROBLEM WITH THE ALLOY WHEELS TOYOTA BLEW ME OFF.I KNOW MANY ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR ALLOY WHEELS. I THINK THE ALLOY WHEELS ARE DEFECTIVE CAUSING PROBLEMS IN TIRE PRESSURE AND ULTIMATELY CAUSING BLOWOUTS. THE BUBBLING AND PEELING JUST MAKES IT APPARENT COSMETICALLY THAT THERE IS A BIGGER PROBLEM. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA XLE FWD. THE ALLOY IS FLAKING OFF MY 17 " WHEEL RIMS. THIS IS CAUSING CORROSION OF THE WHEEL WHICH WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO FAILURE. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND TOYOTA IS NOT TAKING CORRECTIVE ACTION. *TR

2006 TOYOTA SIENNA LIMITED 60,000 MILES. ALL 4 ALLOYS HAVE BUBBLING AND CORROSION. TOYOTA MOTOR CORP REFUSES TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM STATING THAT WARRANTY 3/36 IS PAST. EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM TOYOTA DOES NOT COVER THIS. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA XLE LIMITED AWD. THE ALLOY IS FLAKING OFF MY WHEEL RIMS. THIS STARTED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER MY PURCHASE IN 2006. NOW ALL 4 RIMS HAVE A LARGE AMOUNT OF ALLOY MISSING. EVENTUALLY THIS WILL LEAD TO RUSTING AND RIM FAILURE. I'VE BEEN CHECKING FOR A RECALL/REPLACEMENT NOTICE BUT ALL I SEE ARE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND NO REPLACEMENT OFFER. I'VE CONSULTED WITH DEALERS AND THEY SAY I WILL HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. *TR

RE: SAFETY PROBLEM WITH 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA XLE, OUR SIENNA IS NOT SAFE. ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS THE WHEELS WERE SPINNING WHEN WE TRIED TO DRIVE AFTER STOPPING AT THE STOP SIGN, AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, OR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION, BECAUSE IT PREVENTS THE DRIVER FROM MERGING INTO OR ESCAPING FROM HEAVY TRAFFIC OF NORTHERN VIRGINIA. IT HAPPENED IN ALL KINDS OF WEATHER AND ROAD SURFACE CONDITIONS. I AM A VERY CAREFUL DRIVER; I SPEND A LOT OF TIME DRIVING MY THREE YOUNG CHILDREN. I NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT AND I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE SPINNING TIRES ON ANY OTHER CAR I HAVE DRIVEN. WE CONTACTED OUR DEALERSHIP AND TOYOTA COMPANY. THEIR FIRST RESPONSE WAS THAT IT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM. AFTER OUR INTERVENTION THE DEALERSHIP AGREED TO DRIVE TEST OUR CAR. THE TEST WAS PERFORMED BY ONE OF THE EMPLOYEES...

I HAVE A 2006 TOYOTA SIENNA MINI VAN AWD WHICH BUILDS UP MUD AND SNOW ON THE INSIDE OF THE WHEELS. WHEN THE SNOW AND MUD BEGIN TO FALL OFF, THE CAR BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. WHEN THIS OCCURS YOU ARE ONLY ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR SAFELY UP TO APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. AT 45 - 55 MPH THE VEHICLE SHAKES SO VIOLENTLY THAT IF I HIT A PATCH OF ICE OR WATER I WOULD LOSE CONTROL AND CREATE AN ACCIDENT. *JB
