Bowling ball in your trunk?

Common possible problems:
Failed front motor mount
Bad CV joints
Loose or worn suspension joints

Remove the inspection panel behind your seats, start the car and watch for motor movement when shifting from fwd to rev. Hold the brakes and rev the motor a bit. If you see lots of movement your front motor mount is toast. Other inspections are best made with the car on a rack. Check every suspension bolt and joint for movement. Good luck!
