| Description of the problem | Known as the "death wobble." this has occurred four times to me on the interstate traveling approximately 50-70 miles per hour. Had to come to complete stop before the severe shaking from the front end and steering wheel would cease. Very dangerous and it is a huge safety issue that the manufacturer must address and stop denying happens. They should also repair the car free of charge. This has happened to me on sept. 12, 2015, oct. 4th, 2015, oct. 13th, 2015, and october 25, 2015. All incidents occurred on the highway except for the first incidence which was on a regular road going about 25 miles per hour. |
