hello, i have a problem with my 95 gxe. everytime on the highway when i touch about 75-80 the car isnt that steady anymore, and the steering wheel starts shaking a bit. again, this doesnt happen all the time, only when im going around this speed range or higher. thanks for any help, i really need it.

one of your wheels might be out of balance. check the balance on your 4 wheels. that was the problem on both of our cars when we rotated the tires.

Consider
- unbalanced wheel
- bent wheel
- internal tire defect (ply separation, etc.)
- worn ball joints
- worn tie rod ends

Make sure it's not the road. I thought I had the same problem, but then I was on the turnpike doing 90 and the car was completely smooth. Guess it was just the other road.
