Right after I bought the car it started shaking and shimming while driving when you got up to 55 miles per hour and when you start to brake can't hardly hold it in the road. Ford replaced rotors but it still continued several times I've complained several times but they said it was nothing except rotors again. I've had the car since it had 18 miles on it and it still continues. Please help me resolve the problem.. Thanks
