| Description of the problem | Steering wheel shakes violently after going over a minor bump or road roughness while driving at high speeds (55+) on the highway. It will sometimes correct itself and has not been too bad of a shake but over the weekend, i had to slow down from 70mph to 45mph in the middle of i95 b/c the steering wheel shook so bad and would not stop shaking until i slowed my speed down. This was as a result of going over a minor bump in the road. One time it happened while going around a curve in the highway and the "rumble strips" triggered it. This is a brand new car that i purchased in june. This wheel shaking just started a few weeks ago. Please look into this matter. It is unsafe and can cause an accident whether someone rear ends my vehicle while i am attempting to slow down or i lose control of my car b/c i cannot get the wheel shaking in control. |
