ALSO BEEN TOLD I TAKE MY HANDS OFF UNEVENLY WHICH CAUSES TO PULL, ALSO THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO KEEP CORRECT TIRE PRESSURE IN. THE CAR PULLS HEAVILY. ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. SCARED TO DRIVE. ALSO BRAKES VIBRATE CAR BADLY WHEN BRAKING FROM HIGH TO LOW SPEED ESPECIALLY ON A DOWNHILL. HAVE CONTACTED THE BBB AUTO LINE.
