Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The problem is a steering wheel shake that sets up a distracting vibration at speeds between 50-60 MPH. The strength of the vibration is varied as the vibrations can be strong or weak and at times, even feel as if they are not there. The danger is that there doesn't seem to be an answer as to what is causing this problem. It's related to steering of the vehicle. Becomes very disconcerting creating a nervous driver as the sensation from the vibrations is one of lack of control . Tires have been rotated, rebalanced and tire pressures checked and changed multiple times to check for changes. …”
