Can you tell me why the front end of my car shakes at all speeds worse at higher speeds. You can visably see this in the steering wheel and dash. It is a very bad shaking vibration not minor. Help?

You have a real problem that requires professional help. the car has to be put up on a lift and examined. it could be ball joints l tires, front end alignment and the list goes on. it is a very dangerous situatiion and you should receive immediate help.

Steering wheel starts shaking sometimes on Nissan sentra?
you steering wheel starts shaking because you probably have warped roders your shaking will get worse at higher speeds and when pressing the brake
How do vibration rates affect pitch?
The faster the vibration, higher the pitch.
Whats causing Toyota sienna to shake at higher speeds 60 mph on any road surface Fine at lower speeds The shaking intensifies every 30 seconds then decreases Had all 4 tires balanced 2 shops?
on most vehicals that kind of shaking is caused by a worn out steering component. steering dampner or idler arm.
Where do sounds come from?
it depends on how big or small the vibration is to determine the sound. The bigger the vibration, the lower the sound is. the smaller the vibration, the higher the sound.
How you perceive frequency of sound vibration?
With your ears. The faster the vibration, the higher the frequency. A low frequency vibration will be felt more than heard.
How do you achieve a higher pitched sound?
Increase the frequency of vibration.
Why do smaller objects make higher sounds?
Sound is created by the vibration of air. The faster the vibration, the higher the sound. Smaller objects can vibrate faster than larger objects (of the same kind) and therefore have a higher pitched sound.
My car has a bad vibration when you get it up to 10 milesahour what could it be?
First....can you feel the vibration in the steering wheel? Does the vibration continue to get worse as you increase speed? There can be many different answers. I would check all wheels for loose lug nuts or loose wheel. Next, check your tires for roundness. If a steel belt shifts in a tire, it will wobble. This usually happens if you hit a pothole or curb. See if someone can follow you and look to see if a wheel is wobbling. If you can feel the vibration in the steering wheel or the steering wheel actually wobbles in your hands,you will need to check all steering components for looseness and replace as neccessary. There is no hard or fast answer for this question. If the lugs are all tight on the wheels, check to make sure your tires are properly balanced...although I've never seen this cause a problem at only 10 MPH. If the vibration appears at higher speeds (40+) and the lugs are tight, the wheels are balanced, it may simply be time to get a front wheel alignment.
Why do some sounds have a low pitch while others have a high pitch?
Since our ears recognize any type of pitch as a vibration the more vibration the higher the pitch less vibration lower the pitch.
Is a sound quieter when a vibration is smaller?
No. If a vibration is smaller, the sound is higher pitched. To get a quieter sound the amplitude of the sound-wave needs to be smaller. +++ It depends whether you mean amplitude or wavelength being "smaller", and they are two different things. If the vibration's amplitude is smaller the sound is quieter irrespective of frequency. If the vibration is more rapid, the frequency is higher but the wavelength correspondingly smaller irrespective of amplitude.
What are the different reasons why the steering wheel of a 2006 Jeep Wrangler would shake and this shaking would get progressively worse at higher speeds?
if your car shakes while driving and gets worse at higher speeds usually means the tires need to be balanced and if tire damage (cupping) has already started your gonna have to replace the bad tires
How does changing the length of the string change the vibration?
The longer the string - the slower the vibration (and lower the note produced). If you shorten the string - it vibrates faster, producing a higher-pitched note,
