Consumer Description
I STARTED GETTING SEVERE VIBRATION AND WOBBLING OF FRONT SUSPENSION ON SWEEPING CURVES ON FREEWAY AT SPEEDS OVER 65 MPH AT ABOUT 33,000 MILES ON ODOMETER. I REPLACED THE TIRES, YET IT CONTINUED. NOW THE MECHANICS SAY BOTH FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS NEED TO BE REMOVED AND REPLACED. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN USED OFF ROAD OR EVEN IN SNOW. SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. IT IS LIKE A NEW CAR.
