front end too low - scrapes on 80% of driveways front end too low - scrapes on 80% of driveways

front end too low - scrapes on 80% of driveways

The frequent scraping has caused the bumper to crack in the lower driver's side corner. The frequent backing up out of a driveway has caused the front bumper to catch on the cement or asphalt and bull away from the front panel on the passenger side.

Update from Jan 19, 2016: In answer to a response regarding altering my driving to avoid the scrapes, I have two statements. 1. An average driver using average driveways for entrances and exits, should not be required to alter their driving to avoid scraping the bottom of the bumper. 2. There are many driveways which have a steeper slope than average and there is no way to avoid scraping regardless of the angel of approach. These are not highly sloped driveways but just a little steeper than usual.
