My Hardbody has been doing this lately. I thought it was telling me to read more literature. I did....and it's still doing it. I'm leaning more towards your hypothesis now. Thank you.
Can you help me? Not sure if mechanic knows what he’s doing, I’ve had suspension and shocks changed a couple of years ago. Then my steering wheel would go in and out of being loose at regular speeds of 60kms, then they changed the pump, which fixed the steering feeling of intermittent looseness, but the fluid was leaking, so then they changed the rack. I just got ti back after having it aligned, feels like a slight pull to the left, and steering feels really loose when going over bumpy parts on the road, and seems to go in and out, and then rights itself. Don’t really hear any noises as such, though one time I did here a bit of a squeak as turning, and occasionally hear a clunk when trying to park and back into a space. Only driven 200 kms since it was done a couple of weeks ago? Do you think they’ve put the rack in wrong? Lose? Or why am I feeling it go wobbly everything I hit a rough patch. Sometimes feels loose as I’m driving straight at a faster speed 80kms. I’m worried they’ve not done it properly , so not sure whether to take back to them, or whether to take to someone new, who’s then going to give me a list of new things to change? If you’ve any advices on what to look or listen for, that could narrow it down, would love your help.
Replaced cv axles, tie rods, control arms and brakes and got an alignment, shakes at around 65+ accelerating or not it shakes but barely feel in the steering wheel; 99 es300
My 2018 Cadillac XTS has been doing this last couple months. Got alignment, wheels rebalanced, told I had a bent wheel and saw it on the balance machine very minimal. My car still does this from 70mph to 80mph 🤦🏻♂️ dealership sucks and still under warranty but im getting so fed up with this. I was thinking it was a axel maybe from a pot hole or so but who Knows at this point.
My 2013 cadillac srx wheel shakes after 60, new brakes and new rotors, got the tires balanced. The tires in front are brand new, tires in the back are not new. Would a tire rotation solve this? Also forgot to mention Tie End Rod was also replaced
Please help. This is happening to my car. Mechanic wants to change rack and pinion? Is that the same thing? I see it drives well straight, but at 70 left wheel start cracracracra...
So 50-70 vibration is rims out of balance, bent rims, or cv axle looseness or broken 🤔 I have this happen to my maxima 2013 only after taking 2 bumps hardly was thinking of balance and bent rim and hoping it's balance, I'll check tomorrow for that
Will a bent rim that has been balanced supposedly.....create that type of vibration or shake through the floor or steering wheel at 60 miles per hour....
This happens on my 535xi Bmw..bent a rim and then I drove on run flats. I had wheels unbent..now I need to do alignment and have control arm, bearings etc checked out
I have a 2010 Honda CR-V and it shakes when I accelerate around 50 mph and then goes away when I go faster or when I let go of the gas pedal. Honda told me to change the transmission fluid since it needs it because it could be the torque converter. I feel like it maybe the cv shaft or something in the front that may be going or loose. Tired are good balanced, and rotated. Any idea?
Tbh start with the fluid cause Honda’s transmission are alittle sensitive and need constant maintenance cause they break down fluid fast as hell lol but start there and does it click when turning?
@@Petersiksmotors hey thanks for the reply. It doesn’t click when turning. I did go to Honda yesterday and changed the trans fluid. I was wayyy over due....about 30,000 or more miles over due actually. While the vehicle was up on the lift, they were able to see why I have the shaking. Both front cv axles needed to be changed. $800 job. Way better than what other Honda’s were telling me it could be. I was being informed before that it would possibly be the torque converter which is about $2800
Hi brother I just made a 6 "RC, new 35s on 20x12 wheels and tires, but I have a problem, when I pass 65 mph it starts shaking 70+ is worse, with your experience Do you think it is a problem with the RC suspension or with a new alignment and balancing will solve the problem?
Thanks for the video. I've been working on my son's 04 CR-V with 170k mi. I got rid of a heavy vibration it had, new driveshaft and all new rear differential mounts. We've replaced stabilizer links and rubber bushings front and rear. Replaced all engine mounts. New tires road force balanced at a Honda dealer. New front driver side axle(boot was torn). New front lower control arms and ball joints. At about 68mph it starts to shake a little in the steering wheel and you can feel it on the floor. It's somewhat worse at 70 and above. It's definitely worse when you go around curves at 70. Any ideas? Thanks
@@Petersiksmotors That's the one thing we didn't do and I mentioned it to my son I need to spin the wheels and check that. Also the tie rods seem tight but the boots are cracked all the way around so they're getting replaced.
I have been experiencing shaking while turning to the left at higher speed exceeding around 40kph forcing me to drop to that speed. Any advice? What makes me wonder is when i accelerate constantly while changing lanes to the left, little to shaking was observed.
Check to see if you have any bents on your rim on the front and the back of the rims..Even a teeny bent can cause it to shake. Also make sure your tie rods are good, check for alignment, and make sure your tires are balanced
This issue has been driving me nuts. I went to discount tire, they balanced my tires (with weights), but no fix. Went back to discount tire, for some reason they took some of the weights off, but still no fix. Before all this I checked the suspension and for damage on the rims. It does seem to fit the criteria for unbalanced tires. Steering wheel shakes between 60-75, but outside of that it its fine. Car only has 47k miles (although its a 2010).
@@rachie3323 I think I've narrowed it down to the suspension. I bought some brand new tires a few days ago and the problem still persists. I ordered some tie rod ends, ball joints, and sway bar links and I'm installing them within the next week. Check back then and I can let you know what I find.
Got pot hole at 55mph. Left wheels replaced. 4 new tires. Tires mounted with red dot finally at the Valve stem. I feel a shake at 70 mph to 75. Tires computer balanced. Car sways, steering loose. Looking into it. Good info and I will look into it. Vibration on brand new highway 🛣️ pavement. So not a road issue.
It might be the control arms. I recommend if you have a fwd car changing the front ones first, they’re really not that expensive, i currently changed mines for a 2914 nissan altima
@@JD-ej4rd thanks it's awd with a single beam axle for the rear. Mini van I will do that. They may be bent. Update I just rebalanced with an updated road force balancer. Still have shake one tire took 4oz. Shake is less but there. Thank you. I've replaced the wheels not the arms yet. Tires were new the pothole. Still have vibration. Balanced many times. Cv axle in the front left changed. It went bad and Broke a boot and clicked. Replaced. That for ounce wheel is gone less shaking since then. It did not hit the pothole. But two did run over a raccoon. Not sure which.
I have and Altima and always, since i bought it, whenever I reached 60 mph it started to shake but never fix the issue. One day I noticed that it was low on power steering fluid I filled up to the right amount and shaking went away. Hope it helps someone 👍👍
I have a 2004 chevy tahoe just change my shocks front and back I put 4600 bilstein. So I'm driving on the highway going like 60 or 70 I hit a bump and Holy moly my truck shook so effen bad I thought I was gonna crash can you guys help on what it can be I seen that my outer front tires are worn but the inner is perfect hope anyone can help thanks
2016 Hyundai Elantra got my tires rotated, realigned, and flipped but still shaking around 65mph. Tire shop I took it to is good but they don’t seem to know the issue. Maybe something more mechanical than what they do?
I have 4runner 2006 shaking at 25 mph when accelerate slowly but with strong accelerate no shake at all. Do you know what might be the problem? Thanks indeed
If its the whole vehicle shaking, it might be motor mounts and/or transmission issue. Sometimes throw out bearings in manuals will be worn out(but not totally seized) and vibrate worse at low rotational speeds but as the speed goes up the vibration is unnoticeable.
in my neon i know the balace is off cause fire stone switched my tires after they patched up a hole for me. and so when i go 65 or 70 my front wheels will shake and if i let off the gas under in the steeering wheel you hear a noise like a metal going back and fourth.. idk how to explain
The rotors look brand new less than 10-15k on them and the tires seem bold on the sides. I am planning on new tires at the end of summer hopefully that solves the issue
@@bondito88 check that you have the right size tires on both sides of the front then your rotors then your control arms, the rotors can be check by running your finger on them to see if they are warped, the control arms can be check by lifting he vehicles on both sides of the front then shake the wheel side to side and up and down, if they move even slightly you need to have one or more replaced, another way if you have someone with you is to put the car in park or drive and have them press the brakes, if it moves even slightly you need to do either control arms or wheel bearings
What if you have the same issue but only when decelerating. Like letting off the gas and letting the car slow down on its own. Also hear and feel a random clicking near my feet. It comes and goes. But only while decelerating.
@@georgeemery9136 I put new CV boots and greased them up well and the problem went away. My problem was my old CV boots were torn and basically my ball joints were almost dry.
I have this same issue I think when I get on the highway and go 80 and let off I can hear some wild popping noise like my axle is broken but I never hear the noise when I’m doing 70 and under
Hi Peter, When I go 70-80 MPH, my steering wheel shakes/vibrates when accelerating only. When I let go of the pedal, the shaking seems to stop. I balanced all 4 tires twice and it helped but did not go away. Would it be the axle, as the mechanic can't figure it out? If it is the axle, what should I tell the mechanic for what needs to be done. Thanks in advance.
When you say axle are you talking about drive shafts or what? I have a truck that while I was about 2 hour into a trip on the freeway I got a bad floor vibration I haven’t been able to find the cause but if I say under 50 everything is fine
That is what happens to my car it only shake at 70 I told my wife I think there is a good changes the tires are out of balance. I will start small and work my why up to the front end. thank for verifying my thinking.
i’ve gotten a balance and an alignment and found my wheels were bent so had that fixed but there’s a vibration in the wheel with a rattle when i slow down i can’t figure it out i do have a cobalt
My intermediate drive shaft vibrates but my steering wheel and steering seems fine at 70 mph but the shaft behind the brake pedal will vibrate then go away vibrate then go away. It's driving me nuts. I do a lot of highway driving. I did get a new transmission replacement a few months back
Have the same issue w/ my 99 Yukon. I’m going to replace both driveshafts, front & back. What was your solution to fix it? Rear axle is probably my worst nightmare since it’s more expensive to replace
I have same problem, 60 to 70 shaking,under acceleration (going up a hill) i let off things smooth out. replaced front axles, plugs, coil packs. nothing changed!! changed oil in front axle. you think the tires are going out of balance like you said!?!? they are old and need to be replaced
What dose it mean when u going at a high speed and u brake and slow down and it shakes?? I’m trying to fix my car it’s shacks when slowing down at high speeds
I have a 2020 Ford edge st. I hit a curb ripped both tires. Put two front new tires with Balance. The more acceleration I do the more shaking my steering wheel does, makes a loud humming noise when Driving. Dropped it off at the mechanic shop tonight we’ll find out tomorrow. Also makes a noise when I turn humming
I have this exact problem on my Tundra TRD pro and people keep telling me it’s bad shocks. I have bilstein 5100’s and they show no signs of leaking and suspension still feels really tight.
Did you get this fixed? I just had TRD pro wheels & Falkens put on my low mileage GX470 and it shakes at 60, was just fine before on stock wheels…took it back to the shop today and they rebalanced the tires, but I still have the same issue. Pretty frustrated after having spent this much…
When I first start the car it shakes at idle, and then as you accelerate at between 50 you can hear a weird humming noise, does your shake also when you first turn on the car?
I hear vibration from passenger side. I started to change parts. I ended up changing both front bearings and all four drive axle joints. I've changed tires. Shaking is still the same. I know its definitely right side of the car, because the right read mirror shakes that much that I cant see what's in it. I cant figure this out. Any suggestions guys?
Got new tires put on the front. My car is shaking so bad I’m scared to drive it. I took it back and they told me it’s because I needed tie rod ends. I had them put them on and it still shaking like crazy.
Would spacers (25mm) all around be a cause for wheel shakiness? I added wheel spacers on my 2014 370z and ever since I hit 70mph or brake at 30 and higher, my steering wheel and shifter shake/rattle like crazy.
possibly but my G does the same thing, not really bad shaking but it vibrates. i think its tie rods, my friend had an 09 Z and his wheel shook a fair amount
My wheel shakes like crazy too. Tires balanced, have spacers on. It comes and goes no matter what speed and once it’s happening gets worse with braking. 2010 G
i also have a kia forte (and am having the same problem) bring it to your local kia dealership!!!!! there was a recent recall & update on all kia fortes. a friend of mine is also having the same problem. bring it to the dealership.
Elantra 2008 : I have Vibration at 50 to 60 mph.

Hey I’m having this problem with my vehicle when I’m going between 50-60mph. It’s a 2012 Dodge Charger SE but lifted with a brand new lift kit and 26inch rims and tires. I just got an alignment and tires balance. What else could it be?
I have a question. My car doesnt shake when I drive but whenever I turn my ac on it shakes my whole car. Do you know what it could be? I used my car earlier today with the ac on and when I got home and turned it on again when I was going out again it started to shake alot. Stops when I turn it off.
do you hear any noises in the engine while its on , even like a slight rattle ? could be the engine mounts failing and the ac just puts an extra load on it which is causing the shaking
I’m having violent shaking around 70-80mph. Anything above 90 or below 70 it doesn’t shake. I’ve never had this problem before until shortly after buying upgraded oem wheels. Tires are fairly new with about 75% tread left. What could possibly be the issue? Edit: also I noticed missing weights on wheels. The car doesn’t shake also even under hard acceleration up till 70-80mph
17 f150 - I can feel a wobble in the steering wheel at almost any speed, worse the faster I go up to a certain point. Really bad between 70-80 but at 90 it’s virtually gone?? All of this started after getting new tires, front and rear shocks, and rotors and alignment. I’ve had the tires balanced several times and had them swapped out yet still shakes. I had the alignment done 2 other times. The shocks look good and seem to function properly (bilstein 5100). Could it be from the rotors being out of balance?
@ιτζ_rθςκ ™ I have not. I’m on my third set of tires and even replaced the rotors again just in case and it’s still there BUT it’s intermittent. Maybe it’s powertrain related (engine/transmission). I gave up hunting it down. None of the shops I’ve been to seemed to care nor show any effort to figure it out.
@@AL-yo9xn nope. Replaced all rotors still does it. Had them turned on the hub too and still shakes. Not the tires and not the wheels, not the brakes. Something else is causing it.
@@Treyk901 ujoint the drive shaft possibly. Im about to check mine today or tire rods or axle Jack the car up and grab the wheel from 9 o’clock to 3 o’clock and see if there is play also 12 to 6
I replaced front struts, sway bar links, control arms, and axles still shakes the faster I go the more noticable it is regardless of rpm or acceleration/deceleration did alignment like 3 times and balancing still nothing 2012 Ford fiesta this shit is killing me

Please help. This is happening to my car. Mechanic wants to change rack and pinion? Is that the same thing? I see it drives well straight, but at 70 left wheel start cracracracra...
So 50-70 vibration is rims out of balance, bent rims, or cv axle looseness or broken 🤔

I'm a little confused. So what does it mean if it's shaking.
2016 Hyundai Elantra got my tires rotated, realigned, and flipped but still shaking around 65mph. Tire shop I took it to is good but they don’t seem to know the issue. Maybe something more mechanical than what they do?
What causes it to shake? Like do you hit the gas and it happens or brake or just cruise and it does it
Petersiksmotors it's when you hit the gas because I have a 2017 Elantra as well and I feel the same way!
I have 4runner 2006 shaking at 25 mph when accelerate slowly but with strong accelerate no shake at all. Do you know what might be the problem? Thanks indeed
If its the whole vehicle shaking, it might be motor mounts and/or transmission issue. Sometimes throw out bearings in manuals will be worn out(but not totally seized) and vibrate worse at low rotational speeds but as the speed goes up the vibration is unnoticeable.
Amazing video
What about turning at highway speeds. The wheel shakes when I turn right at fast speeds 80km/h
in my neon i know the balace is off cause fire stone switched my tires after they patched up a hole for me. and so when i go 65 or 70 my front wheels will shake and if i let off the gas under in the steeering wheel you hear a noise like a metal going back and fourth.. idk how to explain
I have a dodge neon too and it does same thing
What about shaking when braking only at high way speeds? I don’t want to replace the rotors if I don’t have to
Shaking when braking is always rotors but where do you feel it? In the wheel or in the pedal?
@@Petersiksmotors wheel and if I was at 40 miles or less I don’t get any shaking, at 50 it’s or 60 I can see the wheel shake
The rotors look brand new less than 10-15k on them and the tires seem bold on the sides. I am planning on new tires at the end of summer hopefully that solves the issue
Mine shakes at 20mph. What do you recommend me? TIA!
@@bondito88 check that you have the right size tires on both sides of the front then your rotors then your control arms, the rotors can be check by running your finger on them to see if they are warped, the control arms can be check by lifting he vehicles on both sides of the front then shake the wheel side to side and up and down, if they move even slightly you need to have one or more replaced, another way if you have someone with you is to put the car in park or drive and have them press the brakes, if it moves even slightly you need to do either control arms or wheel bearings
What if you have the same issue but only when decelerating. Like letting off the gas and letting the car slow down on its own. Also hear and feel a random clicking near my feet. It comes and goes. But only while decelerating.
How did you fix this please
@@georgeemery9136 I put new CV boots and greased them up well and the problem went away. My problem was my old CV boots were torn and basically my ball joints were almost dry.
I have this same issue I think when I get on the highway and go 80 and let off I can hear some wild popping noise like my axle is broken but I never hear the noise when I’m doing 70 and under
Hi Peter, When I go 70-80 MPH, my steering wheel shakes/vibrates when accelerating only. When I let go of the pedal, the shaking seems to stop. I balanced all 4 tires twice and it helped but did not go away. Would it be the axle, as the mechanic can't figure it out? If it is the axle, what should I tell the mechanic for what needs to be done. Thanks in advance.
More than likely the axle but are you sure the rims not bent too?
Petersiksmotors I asked them to check the rims and they said they are not. So I would need to maybe check that too. What would I tell the mechanic ?
Hello there did you have any luck with the shaking
Shakes when taking foot off pedal struts bad I thought...and recently had alighnment
wheel balance is not Wheel alignment
Exactly my problem between 50-70 when and when accelerating
Hello did you ever figure out the issue
Appreciate you sharing with us.I think I have some cheap tires given me the shakes
When you say axle are you talking about drive shafts or what? I have a truck that while I was about 2 hour into a trip on the freeway I got a bad floor vibration I haven’t been able to find the cause but if I say under 50 everything is fine
Check the drive shaft and also look at the carrier bearing if it’s a 2 peice drive shaft
check your U-joint its really easy to replace yourself
That is what happens to my car it only shake at 70 I told my wife I think there is a good changes the tires are out of balance. I will start small and work my why up to the front end. thank for verifying my thinking.
i’ve gotten a balance and an alignment and found my wheels were bent so had that fixed but there’s a vibration in the wheel with a rattle when i slow down i can’t figure it out i do have a cobalt
"Chevy Cobalt Steering rattle" CZcams that.
I literally looked up wheel shaking and I have a cobalt this is the first video I saw 😂😂
Bruh same did u find out what it was, i have a wobble at 100 km/h feels like the right side is shaking
My intermediate drive shaft vibrates but my steering wheel and steering seems fine at 70 mph but the shaft behind the brake pedal will vibrate then go away vibrate then go away. It's driving me nuts. I do a lot of highway driving. I did get a new transmission replacement a few months back
Have the same issue w/ my 99 Yukon. I’m going to replace both driveshafts, front & back. What was your solution to fix it? Rear axle is probably my worst nightmare since it’s more expensive to replace
I have same problem, 60 to 70 shaking,under acceleration (going up a hill) i let off things smooth out. replaced front axles, plugs, coil packs. nothing changed!! changed oil in front axle.
you think the tires are going out of balance like you said!?!? they are old and need to be replaced
Could be your transmission
To the point! Thanks
What about when u get the shacking when u break going 45-65 front driver tire
probably a warped rotor
Your rotors, change them
Do a rotor and pad replacement. $100 and brakes are always worth it
Thats crazy but i also have cobalt just started today.
What dose it mean when u going at a high speed and u brake and slow down and it shakes?? I’m trying to fix my car it’s shacks when slowing down at high speeds
Check your front rotors👍
Exactly what I would have said
Thts what exactly my car is doing, opel corsa utility bakkie
My car does the same thing and I just got this car in Dec😡
Warped rotors
i got my wheels balanced and it’s all good but still getting shaking in steering wheel at 55-60. i slightly feel a bit in the floor? what could it be?
It could be that you need a wheel alignment
I have a 2020 Ford edge st. I hit a curb ripped both tires. Put two front new tires with Balance. The more acceleration I do the more shaking my steering wheel does, makes a loud humming noise when Driving. Dropped it off at the mechanic shop tonight we’ll find out tomorrow. Also makes a noise when I turn humming
Wheel hub bearing?
I have this exact problem on my Tundra TRD pro and people keep telling me it’s bad shocks. I have bilstein 5100’s and they show no signs of leaking and suspension still feels really tight.
Did you get this fixed? I just had TRD pro wheels & Falkens put on my low mileage GX470 and it shakes at 60, was just fine before on stock wheels…took it back to the shop today and they rebalanced the tires, but I still have the same issue. Pretty frustrated after having spent this much…
@@jcman240 yes sir so far all I needed to do was get new tires.
When I first start the car it shakes at idle, and then as you accelerate at between 50 you can hear a weird humming noise, does your shake also when you first turn on the car?
That humming could be the wheel bearing.
Warped brake rotors will cause that at higher speeds....
Will they cause the wheel to vibrate at highway speed even if your not pushing the brakes?
I hear vibration from passenger side. I started to change parts. I ended up changing both front bearings and all four drive axle joints. I've changed tires. Shaking is still the same. I know its definitely right side of the car, because the right read mirror shakes that much that I cant see what's in it. I cant figure this out. Any suggestions guys?
Have you tried unplugging it?
Dammit DWIGHT
@@Petersiksmotors Ah, humor. I have it too.
Got new tires put on the front. My car is shaking so bad I’m scared to drive it. I took it back and they told me it’s because I needed tie rod ends. I had them put them on and it still shaking like crazy.
Would spacers (25mm) all around be a cause for wheel shakiness? I added wheel spacers on my 2014 370z and ever since I hit 70mph or brake at 30 and higher, my steering wheel and shifter shake/rattle like crazy.
possibly but my G does the same thing, not really bad shaking but it vibrates. i think its tie rods, my friend had an 09 Z and his wheel shook a fair amount
My wheel shakes like crazy too. Tires balanced, have spacers on. It comes and goes no matter what speed and once it’s happening gets worse with braking. 2010 G
so what was the fix? all i heard was talking
Ti everyone, another issue can be your Lower Control arms are wearing out/done for. Relatively a $400-500 fix if uts bith wheels
My problem is the car will literally dance over any cracks on the road. The steering feels sloppy but the tires are new.
Shocks and struts
I got new front left nd right axles and my steering wheel still shakes at about 60 on a kia forte ex 2010 what do you think the problem may be
Check rim balance and see if the tires have a shifted belt cause sometimes with potholes it’s shift a belt in the tire
If the tires have a shifted belt i get new tires?
Yes but first get them balance at a shop and see what the tech says
i also have a kia forte (and am having the same problem) bring it to your local kia dealership!!!!! there was a recent recall & update on all kia fortes. a friend of mine is also having the same problem. bring it to the dealership.
Tie rod
What about tire irons
Replacing both my axles on my Camry made a world difference so much smoother 2008 V6 so it’s very torquey
Elantra 2008 : I have Vibration at 50 to 60 mph. I started with motor mounts, then struts, then rear shocks, then sway bar link, then lower arm with new ball joints, then front sway bar bushing, then and last the front cv axles, and still the same shit. fuel is good, the car accelerates good, never stall. Any good idea, please. Thank you.
--- Note: new tires, new balance, rebalance, alignment, and whole new brakes. The bearings are perfect.
Roll the Elantra off a cliff and that should solve the problem. Hyundai has come a long way since the 80s but still garbage cars in many ways.
@@stevomcsteve9492 I don't believe your belief, sorry. I don't trade my Elantra 2008 for any brand at all. You can put my Elantra 2008 between Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Nissan, BMW, or any American car brand new and I don't trade it. in fact not even for free. ja,ja,ja,ja I had them all
What about an alignment?
First thing to check should be axles, dont put that off i learned the hard way after my right axles rubber boot completely gave up to tore at 70 mph
Great information sir your like👍 and a new subscriber
Hey I’m having this problem with my vehicle when I’m going between 50-60mph. It’s a 2012 Dodge Charger SE but lifted with a brand new lift kit and 26inch rims and tires. I just got an alignment and tires balance. What else could it be?
Thanks 😊
It was in my front wheel had to change it, but could probably have swapped it with the rear tire
I have a question. My car doesnt shake when I drive but whenever I turn my ac on it shakes my whole car. Do you know what it could be? I used my car earlier today with the ac on and when I got home and turned it on again when I was going out again it started to shake alot. Stops when I turn it off.
shakes only at a stop ? or shakes while driving as well?
Could be freezing up in the clutch bearing and putting too high of a load on the engine
@@pevant1314 no the car only shakes when the ac is on. It stops right away when I turn it off.
@@Petersiksmotors looks like I have to take it back to the mechanic again 😓
do you hear any noises in the engine while its on , even like a slight rattle ? could be the engine mounts failing and the ac just puts an extra load on it which is causing the shaking
Were your wheel misaligned, from this video here it looks like your steering isn't straight?
It’s probably the camera angle lol but yes it is
Where you from?
I’m having violent shaking around 70-80mph. Anything above 90 or below 70 it doesn’t shake. I’ve never had this problem before until shortly after buying upgraded oem wheels. Tires are fairly new with about 75% tread left. What could possibly be the issue? Edit: also I noticed missing weights on wheels. The car doesn’t shake also even under hard acceleration up till 70-80mph
This is basically what’s happening to my car. I don’t know the cause either
do you drive a crown vic??? cuz i drive a crown vic and have the exact issue
@@pipface6223 nah I drive a corsa
I have a 2020 dodge grand caravan gt. It does this exact shaking. Did any of you correct it?
@@jerryjoe93 selling my car soon and upgrading so I won’t be investing that any further.
My car shakes between 60-64 mph on a highway corner or straight highway on those speeds it’s a Lexus es 350 F sport 2022
I have this problem with a Chevy Cobalt I bought and as I was watching the video I was like hang on🤣🤣
Lol love the bolts
What would it be if it happens more when decelerating but not breaking, but upon acceleration it doesn’t.
On highway speeds only
I have a 2010 Chevy traverse and my driver wheel shakes when I hit 70
17 f150 - I can feel a wobble in the steering wheel at almost any speed, worse the faster I go up to a certain point. Really bad between 70-80 but at 90 it’s virtually gone?? All of this started after getting new tires, front and rear shocks, and rotors and alignment. I’ve had the tires balanced several times and had them swapped out yet still shakes. I had the alignment done 2 other times. The shocks look good and seem to function properly (bilstein 5100). Could it be from the rotors being out of balance?
@ιτζ_rθςκ ™ I have not. I’m on my third set of tires and even replaced the rotors again just in case and it’s still there BUT it’s intermittent. Maybe it’s powertrain related (engine/transmission). I gave up hunting it down. None of the shops I’ve been to seemed to care nor show any effort to figure it out.
Rotors and breaks
@@AL-yo9xn nope. Replaced all rotors still does it. Had them turned on the hub too and still shakes. Not the tires and not the wheels, not the brakes. Something else is causing it.
@@Treyk901 ujoint the drive shaft possibly. Im about to check mine today or tire rods or axle Jack the car up and grab the wheel from 9 o’clock to 3 o’clock and see if there is play also 12 to 6
Trey,
Have you figured out your problem?
I wish u was my mechanic
You’ll find a good one don’t worry!
I replaced front struts, sway bar links, control arms, and axles still shakes the faster I go the more noticable it is regardless of rpm or acceleration/deceleration did alignment like 3 times and balancing still nothing 2012 Ford fiesta this shit is killing me
Did you check to see if you have Bent rim
