SOURCE: 2001 madza shakes

This usually is just either a wheel got scraped into a curb or hit a pot hole so the wheel is off balance or one of the weights came off and still it would make it off balance but its a easy and cheap fix you can either rotate your own tires and put the fronts to the back and backs up to the front or take it to a tire place and have them balance each wheel it costs about 10 bucks per wheel to be done, if you have any other questions just let me know id be glad to hel[ also if you get a chance if you could rate me it would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks,
Steve

SOURCE: shuttering steering wheel when turning

he said power steering? wtf?! if it's air in the lines, he messed up, which I highly doubt it is in the first place. See, depending on the method of pushing the pistons back in, he should of bleed the lines when the job was done. I belive, when he "turned" the rotors it wasn't quite centered and now when you're stepping on the breaks, it's causing a "shaking" through your steering system. what's happening is, your break pads aren't in contact with your rotor the whole time while breaking because the rotor wasn't level when it was "turned." so your brakes are gripping half the rotor and not the over half causing the "shaking." And in cause you were wondering, the term "turned" basicaly means shaving off the glossy film on your rotor so that the new brake pads can and will grip your rotor better for improved stopping power. Which should be done everytime when brakes are changed. Now, as of him messing up when turning the rotors, don't be mad. That happens. A fraction of an inch can cause this and is easily fixed. Just be polite and ask him to return the rotors. If he refuses, then start getting rude about it. Redoing the rotors, shouldn't take more then a hour and at no cost to you cause it wasn't done in the first place. Sorry for rambling on.

SOURCE: car started to shake while driving

Jack front end. Use both hands to check driver and passenger side tires for slight wobble. If wobbles, you have a bad ball joint. Otherwise inspect tie-rod end for wear.

Symptoms indicate tires out of balance. Can't necessarily tell by looking. If you want to troubleshhot yourself, try rotating front tires to back. If it gets better, you know the front tires were out of balance.

My 2007 Hyundai entourage start shaken over 70 mph

Get all the wheels checked for balance.
Check the back of tires for bulges or deformed radially (lumps in tread making tire not circular. Jack each corner up and spin the tire.
If it is shaking the steering wheel, check the wheel joints and drive shafts.

aha, it is a known issue!

I have a vibration at 70 miles per hour

if the wheel alignment is faulty ( castor wobble ) at 70 mph there is no way that you can describe it as a vibration as it virtually rip the steering wheel out of your hands. If it is a torque converter problem then at around 3850-4025 rpm stationary there will be a vibration of the vehicle and engine The sort of vibration that you are experiencing at 70 mph will come from a drive line problem. If rear wheel drive then it could be faulty "U" joints, worn slip joint or failed rear engine mount
If front wheel drive it may be cv joints or bent drive shafts,wheel bearings or brake callipers not moving freely on the mounting bolts.

Saturn vue 2008 shakes when driving over 70

A few possibilities (in order of probability):
  1. One or more tires out of balance (by far, most likely);
  2. Bad front suspension or steering component;
  3. Worn strut(s); or
  4. One or more bad wheel bearings.

1998 ram shakes at low rpm's (1100-1700) at around 40 mph, but the wheel or steering doesnt shake, its the truck itself shaking. It's not as bad when i get up to 50mph. The check engine light

Start by checking the tie rod ends on both sides on the front wheels..With the truck jacked up and jack stands underneath the frame both left and right wheels should be suspended in mid air..The are two tie rod ends on each side of the vehicle, a inside and outside tie rod..Check for any excessive place on each one...
Also ckeck the balance on all four tire's... Inspect the wheels for any stress cracks that would cause them to not to balance correctly and make your vehicle shake...
Check the transmission mounts on the cross member,make sure the mount is secure to the Trans and cross member mount..Also check both u-joints on the drive shaft and any hanger bearings that may be underneath there..If it's a 4 wheel drive check both drive shaft's...Anyone of these option's could show those
symtom's you mentioned...Good luck and let me know how it works out..

I have a toyota Camry 2000 and the check engine light is on and the steering wheel is shaking when driving over 40 mph

The shaking may be a separated tire.

If the check engine light is on there will be a code. Have the computer scanned for trouble codes to see why the light is on.

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

Vibration at 70 MPH.

Warped or out-of balance brake rotor? Also keep in mind that loose rear differential trailing arms that allow the rear differential to squirm around can also cause steering wheel shake.

2001 MERCURY MOUNTAINEER V8 DRIVES PERFECT UNTIL 60 MPH STEERING WHEEL SHAKES..THEN AT 70 MPH CAR SHAKES...BUT NO NOISE...WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM?JUST BOUGHT IT YESTERDAY...DROVE IT 15 MILES AND PARKED...

This is often the result of a tire that is out of balance. Check for bubbles on any of the tires and have the tires balanced. That should clear up the problem.

Car shaking and vibrating at 55 mph. and does it again at 65-70.

Hi:
Since your BMW 540 series is a rear wheel drive car, a common cause of that sort of vibration is often the U joints on your drive shaft. The vibration often only shows up and certain speeds.

It isn't a particularly expensive repair, but is something to have checked out!
