At first the shuddering/jerking was periodic and started to occur more often at random at that speed. The mileage on the vehicle was about 108,000 miles in fall of 2014. This occurred over a period of 6-8 months and then progressed to issues with cabin heater blowing cooler air when thermostat set to 90 degrees.
