Description of the problem | Dt*: the contact stated the mud flaps on all four tires cause snow and ice to build up between the wheel wells and the tires. This causes the steering and control to be difficult. The build up caused the vehicle to slide on snow and icy roads. The dealership determined the build up occurs on all vehicles with that type of mud flaps. |
