| Description of the problem | 1. During normal driving conditions at speeds above 50mph the front suspension will sometimes go into a violent oscillation. The steering wheel, shimmies so violently that it cannot be controlled. The entire vehicle feels like it is coming apart. Not a simple wheel balance shimmy, this is a dangerous violent oscillation. 2. It gets progressively worse as time goes on. 3. It was taken back to the dealership, and they replaced the steering stabilizer which made the problem better, but it came back slightly, and progressively got worse, and worse. There is some underlying problem that the steering stabilizer is masking. |
