Have the team list all of the possible reasons why their vehicle is failing.   They may find a simple solution that does not involve a major vehicle redesign.
Hints: Is the vehicle speed a factor?  Which end of the vehicle is passing over the obstacle first?  Can a change in weight distribution help ? ( i.e. more weight on  the front of the vehicle)
