I have replaced the front rods, the front hub assemblies, the shocks and the tires all in an attempt to fix the issue. Because of the shaking it constantly destroys my front hub assemblies which I have had to replace 2 times in the past 2 years. …”
NHTSA complaint #10496393, filed 2013-02, 90,000 miles“While driving the Bonneville the car will just shut down, looses all power.
