<VV> Convertible damper canisters

[Ron]

As I understand it, it'll be OK until you go over the right bumps at the 
right speed and then it'll shake so hard that there may be some body 
failure.  There is probably some place at the GM Proving Ground that induces 
this and you just haven hit it - yet.
