Steering Column problem #1

Could not get first incident date entered. This is current time started in 2013. Have had repaired 5 times and needs again. When driving on freeway above 60 miles per hour and have to brake heavily it will start to shake and shimmy steering column fixed 2 times this year, as it loosens up and you can move it up to two inches back and forth.

Steering Column problem #2

Steering wheel and column would shake badly. Tilt bolts are in coming loose out of the column. Problem is getting worse. Have not taken to dealer.
