Description of the problem | I purchased my toyota in march. Last nite was our first storm of the year. I live in salem,nh and we had maybe 2-3 inches of snow. I was driving home and went off the road twice. I tried pumping brakes and i feel as though i had no control over this suv i could not stop. It was not deep snow. I feel something is very wrong with this car. I was not going more than 25 mph and my suv went off road and i narrowly missed a telephone pole. I have never had an suv that drove this badly. Something is not right, my husband even drove after i went off road and while he was driving the car slid all over road too. Do you have any other complaints in this type of weather. I bought this car for safety features and now i am in fear of my life in snow. Help me please. |
