| Description of the problem | When we bought the car it came lifted with bigger wheels and tires. They did not tell us it was aftermarket and not covered under warranty. It is not safe to be on the road because it keeps blowing the rear shocks. It blows the rear shocks and basically your driving just on coil springs . Which means lack of control to the vehicle. It has been on going since we bought the car for about 8 months. |
