STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
IS THERE A WIND STANDARD FOR VEHICLES ON HIGHWAYS? I KNOW WHENEVER THERE IS WIND ON INTERSTATE NO MATTER WHAT STRENGTH THIS VEHICLE STRUGGLES THROUGH IT. NOT SURE BODY IS DESIGNED PROPERLY FOR HIGHWAY WHERE THERE IS ALWAYS WIND. I'M HAVING HARD TIME KEEPING CONTROL OF IT AND KEEPING FROM ACCIDENT SINCE I'M BLOWN EASILY AWAY. ALSO IT SHOULDN'T MATTER WHETHER WINDOWS OR DOWN OR NOT. CAR SHOULD BE DESIGNED TO BE ABLE TO HANDLE ALL CONDITIONS. I KNOW WIND IS SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH BUT THIS VEHICLE SEEMS VERY TOUGH TO HANDLE IN IT. I WAS DRIVING 1998 FORD TAURUS AND HIT WIND BUT DIDN'T HAVE THIS MUCH DIFFICULTY DRIVING IN WIND. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE WAS A WIND SAFETY STANDARD ON VEHICLES AND IF NOT SHOULD THERE BE ONE. I KNOW I PUT TODAYS DATE ON WHEN IT HAPPENED BUT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS WIND DANGER ON MANY DATES SINCE HAVING VEHICLE IN A MONTH AND A HALF.
