| Description of the problem | The vehicle violently shimmy's and shakes and makes my hands leave the steering wheel while driving at freeway speeds and going over road bumps, bridge transitions, road deformities. The defect leads to difficult steering and intense shaking even when drivers are driving in normal conditions. This is triggered when the vehicle is traveling at speeds above 50 miles per hour and one of the tires hits a groove or bump in the road, this causes a violent shaking of the vehicle, which can only be controlled by a sudden reduction of speed, which almost caused a several car pile-up on the freeway by me reducing speeds from 70 mph to under 30 mph in the fast lane and not being able to get to a safe area. This has happened in the past but now it happened 4 times in less than 50 miles. My wife refuses t drive the vehicle. |
