Car wobbles violently at high speeds
When I get above 100mph or so, my car wobbles violently from side to side. Could it be alignment? Any help would be great

Might be a broken belt in the tire. My friends Cadillac was doing the same thing.

Don't go over 100.
Just kidding it could be a lot of things such as:
1-Worn out struts or shocks
2-worn out front end parts including bushings
3-tires out of balance or worn out
4-driveshaft bent(not likely)
5-rear axle bearings binding(you will hear a whine).
Hope this helps

check your steering box. Mine was loose and craked the frame.
