I have owned this 1996 Intrepid for about 3 years and only drive about 20-30 miles perweek, mostly highway miels to work. It has 93000 miles. SLowly it has developed a shaking sensation, primarily from the left at highway speeds. Seems to be worse on sloped avemnt and better on level stright pavement.
Now I am experiencing the shaling at lowedr speeds such as 35-55 mph. When I apply the brakes the shaking ceases or deminishes at all speeds. What could be causing this in the suspecnion of this frontwheel drive car? Does this car have tierods, a front torsion or stabilizer bar that have worn out. Thanks for yur time and expertise !

Mine did that it was the front wheel bearing first the passenger side went and about a month later the other rside. Just jack the car up and see if the wheel woobles when you grab it at 3 and 9oclock and move back and forth. It was about 60 dollars and i put them on myself its a whole assembly and goes on fairly easy
