| Description of the problem | While driving at 65mph the left wheel bounces and my engine rpm increase, the steering wheel vibrates as well as the front end. This happens while driving a road which curves to the right. It makes the car difficult to control. It sounds like the cv joint on the left front it makes grinding or pulsing sound. This only happens at highway speed. I recently had a front end alignment and the car does stop straight with no problem at any speed. I feel as if the whole front left is going to come off and cause an accident. |
