We are not sure what is wrong with the van but the shimmy doesn't seem to be fixed by anything. We have had the tires replaced twice. We have had the transmission serviced. We have had the half shalfts looked at and they seem to be fine. I need help on deciding what to do next.
Front end virbration at 35 mph comes up thru the steering also. Reported to daimler Chrysler they acknowledge there is a problem, and that it is dangerous one.
Who can tell me if the car is safe to continue driving? is there a hidden warranty? dt.
