| We were driving to the store and the vehicle started shaking violently and caused us to go into the other lane. i slowed down to stop, got out looked for some broken part.... did not see anything out of the ordinary. we then proceeded slowly back home and the vehicle just had a continuous vibration, but did not shake violently. i then looked it up on the computer and found others having the same problem. i would really like to know what needs to be done to avoid excess cost but be safe. | |||
