Worn tie rod ends will cause loose steering, and therefore drifting from side to side, and can also cause shaking. There are many other causes of shaking or vibration, but none of them are good. Get the problem repaired before you end up in the ditch, or worse.
I also noticed you used the term "tire" rods rather than "tie" rods, and might be referring to tire cords or belts. Broken cords or belts in a tire will cause the entire wheel to be out of balance and will therefore cause shaking. A tire with broken cords or belts is extremely unsafe and should be replaced immediately.

How do you know when tie rods are not working?
One would know immediately as one could not steer the car. Also if the tie rod should come loose the front wheels would do what ever pleased them at the time, been there, done that. Tie rods don't usually instantly fail catastrophically as described above, but if left undiagnosed and unrepaired, that is the probable result. Worn out tie rods or more usually, tie rod ends, will tend to cause improper tire wear, some steering wheel shaking or vibration, your front tire(s) may squeal when cornering, you may hear clunking while cornering, or the vehicle may tend to wander while driving. Any one or combination of these symptoms may indicate worn out tie rod joints or other wheel alignment issues. Have your wheel alignment checked by a reputable mechanic that you trust, or get second and third opinions if you're not sure.

What causes car to shake on jeep cheerokee?
Shaking can be caused by a number of things. Is the whole car shaking or is it more in the stearing wheel or during braking. Have the tires balanced. This is inexpencive and could be the problem also have them checked for seperation. It could be a severly worn wheel bearing. If the shaking occurs more during braking it could be a warped rotor. A worn tie rod can also cause some shaking. My best advise is take it to a tire shop first to rule that out and most shops can check the tie rods, wheel bearings and also brake rotors. Hope this can help get you started.
