Uncontrollalbe wobble at high speeds when hitting bumps on overpasses,or very rough spots in the roadway, or bridge crossings. This has occured to me four times at different locations, & at speeds ranging from 60mph - 80mph. Each time was a very hair raising situation to say the least. Also each time while trying to get the vehicle under control you had to slow down as soon as possible to get it to stop the severe…
