Consumer Description

WHEN BRAKING, THE TIRES BOUNCE CAUSING A SERIOUS VIBRATION WHICH MAKES STEERING DIFFICULT WHEN BRAKING HARD. THERE IS NO VISIBLE DAMAGE OR LOSE SUSPENSION PARTS BUT I'M GUESSING IT'S EITHER BAD STRUTS OR CONTROL ARMS? I'M REPLACING THE PARTS TODAY AS A GUESS AND HOPE IT FIXES THE ISSUE. THIS IS MY DAUGHTERS CAR AND SHE'S AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE.
