I hate this forum. Just full of trolls and you're killing the community. That's why no one is on this forum anymore.

You bought a 2017 and are already out of washer fluid?

If you put a full bottle in, its ~8.5lbs. Definitely not enough to produce noticeable oversteer.

I've had it since December.

I'm pretty sure that's more than enough.

You obviously need to drive your car more if you can't feel it.

Better either full or empty than only half full.
If half full it will slosh around at every turn and could cause snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer,then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer, then serious understeer, then snap oversteer,

I once switched to a heavier weight oil in my FRS and it caused massive understeer. I was plowing into every corner I took...

Wait until you wear half the pads off your front brakes! Total chaos ensues.

Did I throw off the weight balance from front to rear and have too much tread on my front tires from the lack of weight? Will rotating my tires fix this?

....... you should ALWAYS keep your car's fluids topped off ...... I don't care if you do live where it rains every day, all day long, for 11 months out of the year.

I usually fill the engine with enough oil that I can see it at the cap.

But I thought only Mustangs attacked people.......or could this also be the result of the washer fluid sloshing around???

Put coolant on washer fluid tank so cant evaporate in the meantime

I can't believe you got away with that much weight off of the nose. It makes the car dangerously light on the front end!

I heard that's how this one went airborne. Talk to your dealer and read the damn manual!
