more common is when a steel belt on one of the front tires has broken that then makes a little bump on the servace of the tire. run you hand over the surface of the tire and you will find a bump. that will be the bad tire. General Tire is known for that problem form what Ive seen. it could also be a loose balljoint, this could be very dangerous depending on how bad it is, you can lose a wheel causing you to lose control of your vehicle. Or it could just need a wheel alinement or a wheel balance.
