Studs and turn signal

I have a 1995 Mitsubishi Galant and 2 things I have issue with. I have 1 broken tire stud and a strip tire stud on my passenger side. I notice more and more when I drives my front end is shimmery. Could this be because of those 2 bad studs or could this be other front end parts going bad? And my turn signal isn't working. When I crank my car up my left turn signal just start blinking and won't turn off. I can't get it to work from the right side either. The only way I was able to stop it from blinking from the left is to remove the fuse. Do you have suggestion for this problem. Thanks!

With only 2 lug nuts, the wheel is definitely going to cause a shimmy motion. If you don't get it resolved soon, you are going to end up in the ditch one day, or it could be worse.

Have the signal switch checked, seems it is stuck in the left turn position due to a faulty switch.
