bad vibration when slowly accelerating at certain speeds, 28, 38, 42 mph. Only does this with slow acceleration. Does not occur with heavy acceleration. When vibration occurs and you ease off the gas, vibration stops. Once you get past 45 mph does not occur or at speeds higher. You can feel the vibration in the seat, floorboard and see it in the front end. Tires have been rotated and balanced. Frontend has been aligned

    You have a front drive axle shaft causing problems or stabilizer bushings at the lower control arm.

    Yes, hard to diag over the internet. Take to shop and have them duplicate problem and see what it is.
