Re: [DML] Re: Steering shake

[mike.griese@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Holy Smokes!

why Why WHY would anyone continue to drive a car that 
behaves like this?!?  If your handling is so bad you are
seeing double, STOP THE CAR!!!  DON'T CONTINUE 
TO DRIVE IT!!!   THIS IS NOT NORMAL!!!  IT IS
VERY UNSAFE!!!

Do yourself, your car, and anyone you may hit or run over
a favor and get problems with steering and brakes fixed
as soon as possible and park the car until you do.  A properly
maintained DeLorean (or any other car, for that matter)
should have NO shimmy, vibration, pull, or other handling 
quirks in normal driving.  If your car is doing this, it is trying to 
tell you it has a problem.  

Listen to the car and get it fixed - please.
