| Description of the problem | The air suspension intermittently drops the car, resulting in a warning light that says car too low, pull over. You have to stop the car wherever it happens immediately as the car is so low it rubs the wheels on the wheel wells. I've had to stop on the side of two different freeways and up in the mountains when it was 10 degrees outside. It will usually raise back up if you turn the car off and on several times, but sometimes it may take much longer for it to raise back up. Sometimes when i come out in the morning the car has lowered as well. |
