    2013 Sonata, cruising at 75-80 mph there is a shimmy. goes away above 80. As a result replaced front rotors and pads. Mechanic thought rotors were warping and wobbling as they heated up. Shimmy is not as bad but still there.

    Check for play at the wheels
    checking for bad lower ball joint
    Or Play in the wheel bearings
    Also see if tie rod ends are soft and has play
