| 1997 | SUSPENSION:FRONT | VEHICLE DRIFTS OR FLOATS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.MOST NOTICEABLE IN INCLEMENT WEATHER -IT FEELS AS IF THE FRONT END WAS GOING IN TWO DIRECTIONS AT ONCE. THEN IT PULLS TO RIGHT AND IF YOU OVERCORRECT IT, THEN IT WILL PULL TO LEFT DRAMATICALLY. SITUATION IS LIKE A BALANCING ACT BETWEEN OPPOSING POLES.THIS VEHICLE HAS HISTORY OF " FRONT END" PROBLEMS FROM ORIGINAL OWNERS AND MYSELF DATING BACK TO 10-23-1996. TSB # 98-3-11 ISSUED FEB 98, SPEAKS OF DRIFT/PULL WITH TIRE WEAR AS I HAVE NOW. PROBLEM CAN POSSIBLY RESULT IN HIGH SPEED ROLLOVER ON INETRSTATE DUE TO OPERATOR ATTEMPTING TO COMPENSATE FOR DRIFT/PULL. THE CORRECTION MAY BE SUCH AS TO CREATE A CATASTROPHIC SHIFT IN CENTER OF GRAVITY, CAUSING ROLLOVER. *AK |
