2001 VW Jetta with 103000 miles. Recently had tires rotated, balanced and aligned. Now car shakes only during acceleration. No rattle, no sounds of loose parts. Steering wheel shake only coming from front-end of car. More I step on the gas, the more it shakes. Shaking stops when I let off the gas. Help.
