Safety Check-Important, Please Read!

Took my Zee out of winter storage yesterday, and decided to drive it to the corner gas station today to double-check the tire pressure after sitting all winter.

While checking the left rear tire pressure, I noticed the top bolt for the rear stabilizer bar (the U-shaped bracket) was missing! I immediately went back home and parked it.....The other three were tight, and I will take it to the delaer first thing tomorrow for warranty replacement of the bolt.

Hate to think what this might have lead to if I continued driving it unnoticed.... but just want to remind all of you to carefully inspect your Vet after winter storage.

Drive safe!

Zippy

I'm betting it got inadvertently put away that way..unless there is evil afoot... lol

Pays to check this stuff all year long especially if you use it hard or daily year round
After all you wouldn't fly w/o a preflight! With our cars how much closer to flying can you get on 4 wheels?!!
