I seem to be baffled by this, my car vibrates when I get it up around 70 MPH or whenever I accelerate. I thought maybe it could be the CV Joints or a bad motor mount. I looked online for the CV Joints in this particular car and cannot seem to find any. What would cause this problem in my car? And it also pulls to the left or right when you stop/apply pressure to the brakes. Thank you.

You need to get this car up in the air somewhere to check all front end components. Tie rods, balljoints, wheel bearings, struts, tires out of balance, bad tire wear all can cause or collectively create this problem.

Have you checked the wheel bearings? If you have bad wheel gearings, it will shake on you. Also have your tires balances, that could be the problem all in itself. Also, check the brake rotors, if they are warped, they will make your car shake like that and that would explain the pulling to the saide when you put the brakes on
