Q: Wobbling on highway
Sometimes when driving on the highway at 60-70 mph, my Nissan Pathfinder wobbles back and forth. My husband thought it was due to the shocks needing replacing, but it is at the shop now and the mechanic said the shocks are fine. They are replacing the front brake pads and rotors though. Any idea why it wobbles occasionally?
