| This vehicle is extremely dangerous in the snow or on wet pavement. you cannot control the vehicle - it just goes where it wants to. this situation is going to cause catastrophic problems and loss of lives. i don't know if the problem is the very light 4 cylinder engine, problematic suspension, steering, or tires, but it is extremely dangerous and will definately cause accidents. somehting has got to be done to make this vehicle much, much safer to drive in wet and/or snowy weather. it is difficult negotiating a hill in either direction, whether going up or down. i literally slide into the street from my driveway, which is by no means a very steep drive and i certainly cannot make it up the drive in the snow without first backing up into my neighbor's drive and getting enough speed up to make it to the top of my drive. we bought and utilze this vehicle to make deliveries and put up to 500 miles per week on the car and our driver now refuses to drive this vehicle because of the imminent danger -- he calls it a death trap! | |||
