| Description of the problem | While traveling at highway speeds, if i hit a bump or pothole, the front end begins to shudder violently nearly causing a loss of control and causing me to suddenly move to the left or right. This happens nearly on a daily basis on my way to or from work. The only way to stop the "death wobble" is to quickly slow down below 30 mph. This has cased near rear end collisions with people following me. This appears to be a well known problem that the auto maker refuses to solve. I hope someone doesn't end up hurt or killed because i lose control of my vehicle. |
