OK WE BAUGHT THIS CAR FROM MY INLAWS WHO HAD THE "STRUT-SHOCKS" REPLACED THREE TIMES. I HAVE REPALCED THEM TWICE AND NOW I HAVE A SUSPENSION SPRING THAT IS SHATTERED. I THINK THIS IS NOT NORMAL AND I BELIEVE IT IS PROBALBY A HAZARD. IT LOOKS LIKE FIBERGLASS AND IT IS SPLINTERING TERRIBLY. I WOULDN'T THINK MUCH OF THIS IF I WASN'T REPLACING THE STRUT-SHOCK CONSTANTLY AT A COST OF $500 BUCKS EVERYTIME. IT HAS TORN OUT THE ANTI-LOCK BREAK WIRING TO THE REAR WHEEL. THIS VEHICLE ISN'T OLD ENOUGH TO REQUIRE A MAJOR SPRING TO BE REPLACED. THANK YOU. MARCIA CULHANE
