I am concerned about this policy, as there are many other engine components that - like the a/c condensor - are not shielded on this off-road…

Also if riding between 20-40 mph the vehicle rides at a very low rpm (~1100) and shimmies the vehicle like it will stall. Vehicle will also "noticeably" down shift while the foot is off the accelerator resulting in an…
