At about 50 to 70 MPH, there is a violent shaking. I've looked it up and may have referred to it a 'desth wobble' extremely terrifying and you have to suddenly slow down in heavy traffic which could cause an accident. Also.

The front end began an uncontrollable wobble at about 55 miles per hour. The only way to stop it was to gradually slow down to a stop. There was no apparent reason for it to began. I did not hit anything.
