Description of the problem | I have experienced loss of control of this vehicle several times, including today. As i have faithfully maintained my car, i have come to the conclusion the design of the car is the issue. Specifically, when i attempt to apply the brakes, the car will not brake properly and is very hard to control. Today, i experienced the car hydroplane and thank goodness no other car was in front of me or on the side because it took me at least two minutes before i could gain control again. This occured when i made a right turn while driving about 25mph and no puddles of water were present. |
