Description of the problem | We were sold this vehicle to flat tow behind a motor coach. On the highway the car starts to shake dangerously out of control. A death wobble. We had to come to a complete stop to get the vehicle under control. We thought we had a tire blow out. It is unsafe to tow as was dictated in my manual. This vehicle was sold under false pretense and needs to be recalled. I should not have to pay another $600 to tow this vehicle safely when it was sold to me as a safe vehicle to tow |
