| Description of the problem | I currently have a rental car because of the "takata recall", but the main issue is the traction control function. The adjustments made when traction control is on, during periods of rain have almost cause 3 collisions i think of. Its not like a loss of power steering, but an overcompensation. It feels ready to hydroplane when ever there is heavy rain. I have also replaced all four wheels and it makes no difference. |
