When driving at any speed the vehicle is shaking/vibration due to all four tires being unbalanced. Original tires were replaced after finding a bubble on one and abnormal wear on other three. Replacing tire did not solve the shudder or shaking problem.
When the vehicle is traveling between 60-65 mph it seems to shimmy, sometimes the shimmy seems to relate to the engine acceleration and deceleration. This also seems to occur during normal drivng.
Sometimes when driving or at a stop light the car vibrates .

The front end was vibrating . The vehicle was taken to merchants tire for alignment and rotation. I was advised the tire were chopped up and new tires were the only way to fix the problem and the problem was caused by weak shocks or struts. I took the car to the dealer and was advised by the service dept. Personal that the tires needed to rotated every two oil changes and nothing was wrong with the shocks or struts. Also I was advised that if they were rotated they might wear smooth and the problem would go away. ( dot number: tire size: p205/70r15 ).
