Consumer Description

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, BETWEEN 13-20 MPH JUST BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS INTO THE NEXT GEAR THE WHOLE VEHICLE SHIMMIES OR WOBBLES FOR A FEW SECONDS. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME, WHETHER UNDER HARD OR SOFT ACCELERATION. IT IS ALSO MORE NOTICEABLE WHEN TURNING RIGHT. THE PASSENGER IS EVEN ABLE TO FEEL THE SHIMMY, SO IT DOES NOT ONLY TRANSFER THROUGH THE PEDALS OR STEERING WHEEL. AXLES HAVE BEEN REPLACED, SOFTWARE HAS BEEN UPDATED, BUT AT THIS POINT IN TIME THERE IS NO KNOWN FIX FOR THE VEHICLE. *TR
