2 Rear Suspension problem

Failure Date: 09/07/1999

Vibration at speeds of 40mph and higher. Vibration most apparent at 60mph and higher. When steering wheel vibrates, car feels unsafe/unstable. Vibration is very apparent throughout the car. Hands shake and can feel in arms and legs. Vibration causes my lower back to hurt everytime I drive it. Never had back problems before. Dealer states that they reblanced the wheels. Claims the vibration is the road. However, no other car I've ever driven has had so much vibration. Can even see passenger seat constantly vibrating. Have taken the car to the dealer three times. Second time dealer states that they rechecked the wheel balance and phase matched front tire. Left car at dealer for three days they did not even look at the car. Dealer refuses to repair the car. Help! help! help!.
