Consumer was traveling about 60mph on highway without prior notice front end of vehicle started bouncing up and down to the point that driver almost lost control of vehicle. Dealership aware of problem.
When driving at highway speeds and road is just a bit uneven, vehicle bounces all over road. Hard to control, this does not happen when towing trailer. Consumer states that the front bottoms out and causes the front end to rise suddenly, consumer feels the problem is with the rubber stoppers that are bolted to the frame that keep the spring from hitting the frame, the ones on this vehicle are only 3/4 inch clearanced from the top of the spring to the stopper, consumer states most vehicles have 4 inches.
While driving over bumps in the road vehicle inadvertently veered to other lanes of traffic. Dealer attempted to fix the vehicle several times, but had not resolved the problem.
