04 Grand Vibration Frustration

I purchashed by car with about 300 miles on it ( demo car ). Quickly after driving it a few miles I noticed a vibration in the sterring wheel. Took it back to the dealer, they re-balanced the tires, seemed to be ok. Then a few weeks later it was back. Took it back, they told me everything was fine. After many trips back, and escalation calls to GM no result.

I just took my vehilce in to have the tires rotated and balanced. Took a drive down to Florida ( 900 miles ) and the shake was horrible at anything past 70mph. ( You can feel it in the steering wheel, floor, front and back seats ) My vehicle is still under the MFG warranty im just wondering what I need to tell them so I can narrow this down and get it fixed. Ive lived with this annoyince for almost 2 years now and the dealer will not fix it.

What could it be?

04 Grand am, 3.4L, 25,000 miles.

Yes, the steering wheel and car shake/vibrate. The vibration seems to be the overpowering one. I had 2 passengers in the rear and they said it was very noticable. Same with sitting in the drivers seat, if you put your feet on the floor you can feel it. It also comes through the seats.
