What is wrong with my car?

Question

I have a 1997 sl1 Saturn. It's in decent condition except when I accelerate past 55mph, it does this bumpy thing. It's like it's dragging.. feels like I'm running over a speed bump. Does anyone know what this may be?

Additional Details

I just put new tires on my car two weeks ago. The alignment is off though, could that be it? Or the suspension?

well an out of balance tire unless you have bump steer that would be a ball joint, can also be a bad shock absorber

Answer 2

sounds like something in the suspension. Could Be anyone of the suspension parts. Tie rod, ball joint, even axles. get it checked out ASAP, you dont want to get stuck.

Answer 3

Maybe a tire out of balance, or a ball joint, or a bent rim. You need to have it checked out
