Vibration in the steering wheel while driving can be caused by several factors, including unbalanced tires, misaligned wheels, or worn suspension components. Additionally, issues such as warped brake rotors or damaged wheel bearings can contribute to the problem. It's essential to diagnose the cause promptly, as persistent vibrations can affect vehicle handling and safety. Regular maintenance and inspections can help prevent these issues.
maybe the car need to be linged up n check the power steering.
During acceleration? I'm not sure. But when both idling and acceleration the engine's combustion can cause a lot of vibration in the steering wheel if you are in an older vehicle.
Steering wheel vibration when applying brakes is usually caused by warped disc brake rotors
This is probably due to worn brake rotors on the brakes, if there is no vibration when driving then this will be the cause.
A flat tire is one possibility
Out of alignment.......warped brake rotor......broken belt in a tire.....
Wheels are out of balance
well... there are many different causes for vibrations. The most common cause for steering wheel vibration at high speed is poor wheel alignment.
Go to a garage, and get the wheel balancing checked out on the front wheels.
most of the time bad allignment or not balanced tires. You could also have a bent rim.
A steering wheel that is padded with leather for comforment when driving
If the steering wheel is loose while driving the steering rack may be going bad. A bad steering rack leads to a lot of play on the actual wheel.
