The car was shaking @ 40 & 80 mph. The dealer told me that tires were "flat" on the bottom due to the low miles and lack of use. Installed (2) new tires and the car still shakes!!!! 
27000 mi The car was still shaking occassionally, so I took the car back into the dealer for evaluation. The service manager suggested that we put more air into the tires. So instead of the 30 PSI, they added 5 additional psi. Now it's GREAT!!!!
