NHTSA complaint #10424045, filed 2011-09, 120,000 miles“I was about to take my vehicle out of town and had my oil changed on march 10, 2010. My husband said he would change the oil at Dodge dealership and at the same time, check why the steering wheel was shaking. The write-up tech or adviser told him without looking, that the cause was due to the tire. Since the dealership was closing and we have warranty on our tires from sears, he headed there for service instead. After the technician from sears couldn't figure out why the tires were causing the shakiness, my husband wanted the tires balance to see if the shakiness will stop. …”
