Wheel problem #1

Entered highway from on ramp as picked up speed steering wheel began to shake violently and began to loose control of SUV. I immediately pulled over and had it taken to shop to find excessive rust on back frame n shock causing wheel to �basically be free floating and unattached� the vehicle is still in shop at moment and I can get pictures and a statement upon request.

Wheel problem #2

My 4 runner shakes while on freeway going passed speed limit of 50mph it feels like I can tip over if going to fast. Some of the electrical things work then not work. It is mostly the shaking back and forth. I have to hold firmly to get it under control somewhat. People notice it when driving behind me. I am scared for my children and I.
