Car begins to shimmy through the front end and steering wheel starting about 70 MPH. Does not shake or shimmy before that speed. Had tire rotation done and front tires balanced - tire shop checked the bearings and found no movement.

Hi we2nprs,

Check the CV inner joints for excessive sideplay indicating worn bearings.
