...having problems.? this has been going on from the very begining. We went to the dealership and test drove the car first and it had this feeling as if when the car was turning, the front wheels were making tiny hops or skids. They said this was because the clutch was brand new and because the fluid around the clutch was cold, it did this. We test drove another grand sport to see if it had the same problem and it did so we bought the car. Anyway, now my dad is getting remorseful thoughts and wants to cancel payment on the car until they fix it.

What I wanna know is: Is this normal? Will it break it? or was it not build correctly? thanks
 
If indeed you drove others that don't have that problem, then it IS A PROBLEM.

It is important that you keep their receipt when you bring it in for warrantee work.
If they fail to fix it in (I believe)3 visits for same problem, you need to follow the LEMON LAW procedures.
But there must be a problem, it must not be fixed in three visits and finally and of most import, you must check your States LEMON LAW requirements.

On a friendlier note, you might ask for an appointment with the regional service MGR and discuss it with him, and or call Customer Service (Nationally).
 
Most rear wheel drive cars will do that at a slow speed when the steering wheel is turned very sharply. Personally I wouldn't worry about it and I doubt that they can do anything about it.
