Description of the problem	While towing 4 wheels down behind motor home... Traveling north bound on i-75 in tennessee within 100 miles of the tennessee georgia border i hit a very rough patch of the interstate going 64 mph. My 2012 4 cylinder chevrolet equinox started to violently shake my motorhome, when i glanced at my rearview monitor the steering wheel on the car was whipping back and forth. Forcing me to make an emergency stop on the outside berm, this was around 3:00 am there was little traffic at the time, so i was lucky. When my speed dropped to 5 to 10 mph it stopped and it never happened again. After some thought this was the 2nd time this happened and around the part of i-75 north bound about 2 years ago.
