It has been a very reliable car. I have noticed it (steering wheel) shimmies back and forth when I'm on the highway running between 60 and 70 and higher. It doesn't do it at lower speeds. It does not do it when I'm braking either. Any suggestions other than bringing it to a mechanic? Thanks for the help.
