Tires out of balance, belt in tire has slipped, ie defective tire, bent wheel, loose lug nuts, loose or worn bearings. Check lug nuts and tighten to the proper torque. Have the tires rotated and balanced. Inspect the suspension and all stering parts. Have you used "fix a flat" ? if yes, You have 2-lbs of water inside your tire now. it cost me 70 bucks to find out and this stuff easts chrom weels. Go to alignment shop and tell them to jack up ur car and they use a special machine to turn the back wheels one by one to find out which one is out of ballance ( dont let them take the wheels off and ballance them since they balance tires and speed lower than 50mph and usually stuff happens around 55 to 60mph. for front tires u can just jack up one wheel at a time and put the car in drive and accelerate one wheel is on the ground and the one you jacked up turns and u ask some one to look at the wheel see if it shakes ( it shakes really bad if water inside the tire) do the same of other front wheel. But for back wheels u need that special machine which alignment shops have and all these machines do they turn the wheel up to 130 mph to see if it shakes or not.
bent wheels or a broken cord in a tire or a deformity in a tire.
1. out of balance wheels 2. misaligned front end 3. worn out steering dampner.
Wheels are out of balance
maybe you need to have wheels balanced We are actually having that same problem with our car and it isn't the tires. We just bought brand new ones had the mounted and balanced and also a front end alignment done on it and it still shakes while driving..
If it only happens when you are braking I would suspect warped brake rotors. Other reasons the front end could shake would include unbalanced tires or the vehicle needing realignment. Whatever the case may be; driving a car in this condition is unsafe and you should repair it or have it repaired before you drive it again.
It sounds like your car needs a 'front end alignment'.Get to a garage soon. If something breaks in your frond end, you could have an accident. $ 50 may save your or someone else's life.
Only if you drive with your foot on the brake all the time.
Tires out of balance, bent wheel, worn suspension or steering parts, bent driveshaft.
Maybe its your motor mounts.
Have you tried having the wheels balanced ?
Yes, either can cause a shake while driving.
Depending on the age of the vehicle - there could be several possibilities. Tires/wheels out of balance - broken engine or transmission mounts - worn out shock absorbers or struts.
