Most vibrations at speeds from 45mph to 55mph indicate tire balance problems. If there is no vibration outside this range have the tire balance checked. If there is a vibration that starts around 50mph and continues at higher speeds there could be a problem with the CV joint(s).

90% of front suspension noise on caravans is sway bar bushings and sway bar links.Next is upper strut bearings.

Rear end vibrates in 2005 dodge grand caravan

I'd have to check your suspension. You think the tires are ok? Did you try rotating the tires to see if it made any difference?

Unit bearing is bad on one side or another. You have to raise the front of the vehicle, remove the wheels, calipers, rotors, everything down to the unit bearing. Turn both carefully by hand and you should be able to tell which one is bad.

Whirring noise - Saturn VUE

Greg,
Sounds like wheel bearing issues. I've had my front wheel bearings replaced twice on an 02 Vue AWD V-6. The 02-07 Vues use the same wheel bearings and they are a known issue with these
cars. Another problem with these cars is the rear support bearing for the drive shaft in the AWD models. I recommend having the wheel bearings and rear carrier bearing checked out. Good luck.

Our 2001 Dodge Caravan seems to be leaking oil around drive shaft

Yes it's a bad seal and most likely the side bearing to the trans axle is bad too. Once the bearing has play, it vibrates and causes the oil to leak though the seal. Note: if one side went bad the other side is soon to follow since they have the same amount of miles on them. Might as well change both side. Good luck and hope this helps. Keep an eye on the transmission fluid level, don't want to burn out the transmission.

I have a 2001 grand am that makes a rubbing or grinding noise from the front end. I have some vibrations in the sterring wheel as well. this is not noticable until the car is above 30mph.

Your front struts may be bad,There is a rubber seat at the top of the strut that can start to bind while driving and turning. Replace struts and realign front end.
