The shimmey is felt by all passengers, and the steering wheel moves 5 to 10 degrees side to side. It usually happened within the first few miles at speeds between 55 and 65 MPH. It smooth out on its own after a mile or so or getting out of that speed range. I thought it was from flat spots in the tires from being parked for long periods of time. But recently it has been occurring even after several hundred miles. Tires and balancing are less than 6 years old. Any ideas on what to look for?
