If you’re driving down a Omaha neighborhood street and you can feel your steering wheel vibrating or shaking, don’t panic! The answer is likely below you … in your tires. Why is your steering wheel shaking? The most likely reason is that your tires are in need of an alignment. Misaligned tires can not only make your steering wheel feel shaky, but they can also make the whole car vibrate. Learn more about what causes steering wheel shaking and how to fix it from the service department at Sid Dillon Nissan.
There are a handful of reasons why your steering wheel is shaking, and they’re all fairly easy to fix, but need to be handled as soon as possible. A shaking steering wheel is a sign that something in your car is amiss, and you need to fix it before it becomes a bigger problem. Here are the primary reasons for steering wheel shaking:
If you drive a vehicle with a lightweight suspension system, you’re more likely to have your wheels get unbalanced, which leads to the car’s weight not being evenly distributed. This is an easy fix—schedule an appointment with our service team and our certified technicians will reposition your wheels.
This is similar to unbalanced wheels and is often caused by accidentally hitting a curb or a nasty Nebraska winter pothole in Beatrice or Omaha. Check the tread on your tires. If one tire is more worn than the others, you need to have your tires realigned at the Sid Dillon Nissan service center.
Is your steering wheel only shaking when you turn? That’s a sign that there’s a damaged bearing or the bearings need more lubrication. If the bearings aren’t working properly it’ll show up in the steering wheel when you make turns. If they just need to be cleaned and lubricated, it’s an inexpensive fix. Damaged bearings will need to be replaced.
If the driveshaft is out of balance, or there are any loose or worn parts in your vehicle’s suspension system, you’ll want to fix them immediately. The longer you drive with suspension issues, the more extensive the damage can become.
Does your steering wheel shake when you brake? Then you might have worn brake pads, bad brake discs, or worn-out shocks. You definitely don’t want to drive through Kearny with brakes that aren’t working properly, so get them checked and fixed as soon as possible.
