Has this happened to anyone? This only happens once in awhile. when driving and it the car will start rumbling, than shake. It happens at 35mph, or 53mph. It is happening more frequently, and it will almost get violent. I slow down or speed up, and it will stop for awhile. anyone know what the cause is.

It could be anything from a tire out of balance to a wheel getting ready to fall off. Nothing good can be causing this! Get it checked NOW!

It is quite embarrassing, it was very worn tires. Checked tie rods, ball joints, cv axel, and noticed how bad the tires looked. After replacing them everything is fine.

yah my previous car was damn near undrivable at over 75mph at first then sunk to around 70. new tires made it go all the way without a problem.

you know, if the tires are cupped or balljoints a worn, then this will cause big issues with vibration. The struts being so worn that the tires "skip" the ground and cause this cupping action. check those out and the balljoints. if the car sits for long periods of time. flat spots can develope, so make sure the tires are inflated to proper pressure.
