Q: Unstable turning
I have a 2012 Toyota Corolla that drifts all over the road in the wind, it hydroplanes severely when the road is wet and it can't turn a corner without feeling out of control. Can you tell me why this could be and what to look for in a new vehicle so this does not happen again. Thank you!
