Well at what RPM does it happen,

Does it do it in any gear at that RPM?

Might be a broken motor mount or loose motor mount
if the motor really jumps around in the frame

Could be an out of balance tire/wheel or bent wheel, if it didn't do it originally

At 10K the rear tire is usually due for replacement, check the tread if it's down to the bottom it can cause a rough ride

If everything is tight I'd look at the tires/wheels.

If your motormount is good, ask that the dealer check your crankshaft. There seems to be a problem with the crankshafts that cause them to scissor. If the crank moved it can eventually take out the oil pump, cam plate and cams. Don't let them tell you that the crank is good if there is more than .010" play in the crankshaft. I've pulled down engines with only .008" play and they vibrated terribly.
