If the steering wheel starts to shake between 55-65 MPH then you need to balance the wheels. If it shakes when you press the brakes, your brake rotors are warped and need to be cut or replaced. If the steering wheel shakes at low speeds then it's possible one of your rims is bent or one of your tires is out of round. Leaving a car parked for a long time in snowy and icy roads will damage your tires, causing them to warp. Depending on which situation is causing your steering wheel to shake, have it looked at.

SOURCE: my steering wheel and whole

I would check your front tires first. Possible broken belt. Look for a bubble (goose egg) on the tire. Hope this helps, TJ

SOURCE: When i drive down the street my steering wheel

I would check your tires, possibly a broken belt in one. Look for a bubble (goose egg) on them. I would suspect you will find one on the front. Hope this helps, TJ

Why is the my r124 prime mover shaking after 70km to 80 km?

If the steering wheel is vibrationg it may be that the wheels need balancing. If the whole vehicle is shaking you need to check that wheel bols are properly tightened first. You might need to get steering/suspension checked .... before there is a bad fault developing

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.

1999 Ford Taurus, steering wheel shakes when driving due to front passanger side tire movement/problem. The tires have been rotated and still problem from that area. What could it be?

Usually a steering wheel shake is a bad tire. Any chance you have 2 bad tires on the car? Only a front tire will make the steering wheel shake.
