    AT HIGHWAY SPEED, ANY SLIGHT BUMP IN ROAD MAY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO START VIOLENTLY SHAKING. I HAVE HEARD IT REFERENCED AS A "DEATH WOBBLE" AND THAT IS SO ACCURATE. I HAVE REPLACED ALMOST EVERYTHING - TIRES, SHOCKS, TIE ROD ASSEMBLY, TOE-IN SET, ETC. PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. PROBLEM DOESN'T HAPPEN DAILY - BUT IT HAPPENS SUDDENLY AND IS FRIGHTENING. THIS IS A BOX TRUCK CARRYING A LOAD AND WHEN THE VIOLENT SHAKING OCCURS , YOU HAVE TO HOLD TIGHTLY TO THE WHEEL AND TRY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE FROM HIGHWAY SPEED 55 - 70MPH DOWN TO ABOUT 30MPH BEFORE THE SHAKING WILL STOP. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT THE MANUFACTURER MUST ADDRESS!
