Road vibration and harsh steering input are real common in these cars IMO because of the wider wheels and tires, wheel offset, steering scrub radius, comparatively light weight and most importantly the lack of rubber bushings in most of the suspension pickup and shock mounting points. The tires "Talk" to you, often in a language you don't like.
