1999 Plymouth Breeze 2.4 L freeway driving at 65-70 mph the cars front tires felt like they were going to buckle inward (towards the back of car, hesitate sorta feeling. Felt it more on the front driver side then the passenger side. When I felt this it only lasted long enough for me to notice it and say something to the passenger. 2 seconds? 4 wheel alignment and two new tires on rear. Car has vibration at all speeds. Thanks you

An owners manual wouldn't help you much in this case. And neither will a shop. If you can't make the problem happen on demand, its going to be tough to diagnose.
Usually if it quits and starts back up, its something electrical, but that could include dozens of components, including the key switch and several relays.
Obviously you have several things can cause this: 1) Bent Wheel, 2) Loose or Missing Lug Nuts, 3) Lost Balance Weight(s), 4) Wheels Badly Out of Balance, 5) Bad Front Wheel Bearings. 6) CV Joints badly worn. Basically, anything to do with proper balance of the front wheels can cause this. Usually this condition exists somewhere around 45 MPH +/- about 5 MPH. Have a reliable ASE Technician check it out as soon as possible. If a wheel were to come off at any speed it could be instant disaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Being a front wheel drive car, the CV Joints could be worn out. You don't give the Miles on your vehicle. Typically CV Joints and Hub Kits (Wheel Bearings) do wear out. If you have in excess of 100,000 miles replace what needs it. Get an estimate First and consider if is worth fixing as a 1999 Breeze may not be worth the investment of the required repairs.
sounds like the cv joints which drive the front wheels are worn out or have no grease in them.
Best way to check is to jack up car and turn the wheel left or right and turn by hand and listen or feel for roughness when being rotated.
check wheel lug nuts to insure both rear wheels are tight. you may have a bad tire on one side or other,have someone watch car from rear when you're driving it to pinpoint the wheel thats wobbling. that will narrow the search.a warped rim may be the problem,if so install your spare and look at used parts places for another rim and tire to install.hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com
I would have the rear wheel bearings checked asap and rear brakes as well. Sounds like a very bad wheel bearing but also makes me wonder why the shop that did the tires and alignment for you didnt find this for you. After a alignment the car should be driven. So take it somewhere else and have the wheel bearings checked asap but be very carefull driving.
My 97 Breeze battery is behind the left front wheel. Turn your steering wheel all the way to the right, and lock in position. Remove the access plate in the wheel well.
