Consumer Description

We were traveling on a highway in Arizona (Hwy93 between Wickenburg and I40 JCT), going about 65mph. We hit a rough patch on the road. When we hit some really rough patches, the front end began wobbling and shacking, even after the road smoothed out. This would last an extra 15 to 30 seconds after the last bump. This made it hard to steer, so I had to slow down. This happened many times, even when we were on different roads. It happened again a couple of days later on I15 between Pocatello, ID and Idaho Falls, ID.
