I've had problems with the car shuddering at speeds b/t 75-80 very consistently and even the mechanic agreed he could feel it. The dealer had taken a few attempts to fix the problem (OT sensor / spark plug) with no success. They finally told me that because of the speed in which it occurs, they could not do anymore to help.
