The contact stated when attaching trailer to the vehicle the suspension on the vehicle did not support the weight. After the trailer was loaded the rear suspension dropped seven inches, causing the front suspension to raise seven inches. This shift in the suspension made it very difficult to control the vehicle while driving. The trailer attachments in use were the ones recommended by the manufacturer. The trailer was always loaded with weight that was less than the maximum allowed. The manufacturer recognized the problem, but has not offered a solution. The contact was told by the manufacturer this vehicle will not be produced after this year.
