“I was driving on the interstate. The speed limit was 65. When I got to 60 I noticed my SUV began to shake. Hitting a bump most of the time starts the problem. It vibrated so much and so loudly that I had to slow down to 55. I took it to the first mechanic who said it was the steering stabilizer it did cost about $150-$300 to fix. I can't remember exactly but it wasn't cheap. It worked for awhile. I have gone to several other car service companies and they have not been able to permanently fix this problem. I'm afraid I will lose control of steering. …”
