Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING AT A SUSTAINED SPEED OF 50 MILES PER HOUR I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD THEN EXPERIENCED VIOLENT SHAKING IN THE STEERING WHEEL "THE DEATH WOBBLE " AS OTHERS DESCRIBE IT. I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND STEERED IT OFF THE ROAD. I GOT OUT CHECKED ALL THE WHEELS AND SUSPENSION BUT EVERYTHING SEEMED NORMAL. I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE AGAIN BUT NEVER WENT OVER 45 AFTER THAT.
