Consumer Description

MULTIPLE EPISODES OF SEVERE FRONT END SHAKING AND INSTABILITY THAT OCCURS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN DRIVING OVER MINIMAL BUMPS OR OTHER ROAD IMPERFECTIONS. RECENTLY THIS CAUSED A LOSS OF CONTROL WHEN IT OCCURRED ON A FREEWAY NOT KNOWN TO HAVE ICE SPOTS AT 50 MPH. THE ONLY WAY I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DISRUPT THIS IS TO QUICKLY REDUCE SPEED TO BELOW 40 MPH WHICH IS ALSO DANGEROUS ON THE FREEWAY.
