| Description of the problem | Absolutely horrible performance in icy road conditions. Other cars pass with ease while mine felt like it was slipping and floating over the road. This only seems to occur in icy road conditions. We actually spun out on ice while only driving 30mph, clipping a road sign. We're lucky the damage/injuries weren't worse. Car feels completely uncontrollable. It is terrifying to drive in these conditions. |
