Question 2005 STS Help

My STS when cruising between 40 to 45 MPH and at higher speeds it appears that the engine misfires. The car feels like it is riding over a washboard. I have used fuel injector cleaners and no change in performance. The car runs smooth at idle and at full power accelatron. My OnStar reports everything is normal. Thanks for you help.
