Whenever i make a sharp right turn, my car shakes. It also shakes when i decelerate quickly, for example a highway off-ramp. The steering also seems to be a bit looser than it used to be, and at very high speeds the car drifts around a bit. Is this an alignment problem or something more serious? Thank you for all your help,

Harv, here's a question that you may be able to answer, sorry, wanted to keep it near that top. Wait for 03yellowpony to reply, he knows his stuff.

Sounds like it MAY be an inner tie rod. I would get it checked ASAP. If it breaks(and they sometimes do) you lose all steering.

thank you, assuming that it is the inner tie rods... how much are these to replace?

your rotors might be warped too

Warped rotors won't really effect steering. they will produce a pulsation, but won't loosen the steering. Before going out and buying ANY parts, have a good shop check out the front end. Some give free front end inspections, as well as free brake inspections. Have both checked out. But my money is on a steering component..likely an inner tie rod end.

03YellowPony

Yes...dufas...but they are not attached to the front suspension or steering.
