Back in 2019 on thanksgiving we had a car accident driving straight on route 17 in essex county because the wheel bearings went out to quickly we replaced them a year later it did almost did the same thing but we catch it in time are mechanic said it shouldn't have to change your wheel your wheel bearing 10 months apart we went through 3 already and it's asking me to put a date from when it happen I'll put the first time and the next two the next date it happen 9/23/2020/10/20/20 it's also doing some weird sliding…
This car continues to sway and hop at almost any speed. If you hit the slightest bump the rear end of this vehicle hops as if the tires have actually left the ground. In addition, the car sways left to right especially on the highway at about 65 MPH. I have driven in the snow for the last 30+ years and I have never been so white knuckled in the snow. This car feels as if it has zero control in the snow. I have never experienced anything like it.
