Consumer has problem with suspension. Vehicle sits so low to the ground that in snow like weather, brakes freeze up, and perform poorly until car is fully warmed up. Consumer now believes that her claims were too hasty and that all low riding cars have this problem, car simply is not suited for country driving conditions.
