Is the vibration in the steering or the body?

Vibrations at high speed are usually due to unbalanced tires. Get them checked and balanced if necessary. ensure rims are not bent.

If the vibration is pronounced whiile accelerating and lessens when accelerator is released it could be the drive axles that requires attention.
