When I drive my vehicle 40 to 50 miles per hour it wobbles so bad I cannot keep it on the road unless I take my foot off the gas.

Hey VINCENT,

This sounds like you have an idler arm that has gone bad, have a helper turn the wheel slightly back and forth while you look under the car in the front to see if you can tell which component is worn out.

Let us know what you find.
Best, Ken
