Description of the problem	While driving on snow covered roads the wheel wells for the car became packed with snow and ice. The clearance of the vehicle did not allow for being able to clear the buildup. Steering was very difficult and the snow and ice build up was rubbing on all the tires. Even after placing the vehicle in a garage i was only able to clear the front wheel wells, the rear wheel wells have a felt type lining that sticks in the snow and ice so it cannot be removed and rubs on the tires decreasing the handling of the vehicle. I contacted the dealer and they said they do not have any suggestions.
