When the car is driven in the range of 50 - 60 MPH, the front end experiences a violent shake. All tires and front end have been checked and corrected by a front end specialist.

If the speed is increased over 70 MPH, the shake goes away.

If I let up on the gas in the violent shake range, the shake goes away (same for placing the car in neutral).

I do not have any noise from the transmission that I can hear.

If anyone can shed some light on this issue it would be greatly appreciated.

Assuming you have checked the front suspension components (ball joints, tie rods, bearings, struts, bushings, etc.).

Check the trans fluid and the differential fluid. The differential may be low or out of fluid, if out it could sieze.

Do not drive a car with a "violent shake" until the problem is solved.
