WAS DRIVING ON THRUWAY AT 65 MPH, HIT A SLIGHT SEAM IN THE HIGHWAY AND THE ENTIRE FRONT END BEGAN TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY, FORCING ME TO LEAVE THE HIGHWAY IMMEDIATELY AND STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AT ABOUT 10 MILES PER HOUR, THE SHAKING LESSENED AND ACTUALLY STOPPED. THINKING IT WAS A FLUKE OCCURRENCE, I CONTINUED ON MY WAY. UNFORTUNATELY, NEXT TIME I HIT ANY SORT OF IMPERFECTION IN THE ROAD, THE "DEATH WOBBLE" STARTED AGAIN IN THE FRONT END.

I WAS DRIVING AND SMELLED BURNING. PULLED OVER ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY. I THEN SAW SMOKE. I DROVE A BLOCK AWAY TO A SAFE SPOT GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND CALLED 911. THE FIREFIGHTERS EXTINGUISHED AN ELECTRICAL FIRE THAT STARTED IN MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. THEY BELIEVE THE MOTOR IN MY DOOR CAUGHT FIRE. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED. NOW I'M AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO. THANK GOD I HAD JUST DROPPED MY SON OFF AT SCHOOL SO NO INJURIES.
