Since this started, I noticed at higher speeds of 50mph+ the steering is very erratic and loose, making it difficult to stay in my lane/on the road. Constantly having to correct the wheel in the middle of a turn as it will gradually make the turn wider going into the other lanes.
Not sure if this is relevant and important to note, but right before this problem started, I had a severe death wobble in the front end that I was told was due to my tires being very bald and showing wire.
So, I got new tires on the front and once balanced, the wobble momentarily went away. Until this new problem started, now the wobble is also back but only occurs when I let off the gas.
I don't have the money to just throw random parts on this deathtrap hoping it'll be the problem solver. So hoping you guys can help narrow down the possibilities so I can get back to feeling at least a little bit safer driving to and from work when I only had to worry about my brake line collapsing and catching on fire behind my wheel (happened the day I got it and was bringing it home, thus when she got her name. Fireball). I should've taken that sign a little more serious.
