car is unstable and vibrates like a washing machine - Toyota Yaris Forums

For few months now, I have been noticing that my car has turned unstable and vibrates a lot. I had a lot of dents on the wheels, so I fixed them and did the alignment and balance and the weights. So it became better at lower speeds but on high speeds around 80 mph i notice that it starts to shake really bad at 100 mph its awful, I can hear the coins rattles in my glove compartment and everything. I can feel the irregularity coming from underneath me like something in the suspension on the driver's side. One of my friends told me it could be the ball joint or bushings. Planning on taking it to the shop next weekend but thought I would get advice from here first. Thanks I am trying to explain this I hope the info helps make you understand.
BTW I used to drive the car on unpaved roads a lot that's why I had dented wheels. I also hear some kind of squeak when braking at low speeds and the car vibrates more when I brake at high speeds. I checked the brake pads and they were fine.
