| Description of the problem | On 1/2/2019 i was driving to work in the morning. The front end started wobbling rapidly after hitting a pothole on the highway. My speed was approximately 70 m. P. H. I took my foot off the accelerator and slowly braked. The wobble did not stop until i was around 55 m. P. H. I was not able to get out of the center lane because traffic was heavy and running past me in both lanes. This is the second time this occurred. The first time i just thought is was a fluke because i hit two potholes in a row. That happened about one month ago. I am making an appointment with my dealer for a service inspection. I have felt small wobbles since i got the vehicle. These two were sustained and only stopped after slowing to around 55 mph. |
