Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Upon receipt of the vehicle from the dealership, a shuttering or vibration has been noticed between 65 and 80 mph. original diagnostic efforts yielded a confirmation of the behavior from the dealership, but no solution. i brought the vehicle home and noticed that the lug bolts were not torqued appropriately. tightening down the wheels improved the shaking for a short period of time, but the behavior returned within 24 hours. subsequent diagnostic efforts by the dealership have yielded only a "minor vibration at speed" description with no proposed resolution. *nm *ak
