What Causes Steering Wheel Vibration in a New Car?
1 Answers
New car steering wheel vibration can be caused by the following reasons: Friction between plastic components: Since steering wheels are typically made of plastic parts, they may harden in cold temperatures, potentially causing friction noises. Abnormal sounds from the steering wheel: If the abnormal sound originates from inside the steering wheel, the issue is most likely caused by the steering wheel's clock spring (airbag coil). Aging of tie rod ends: Worn tie rod ends can cause steering wheel vibration and noise. This situation usually requires replacing the tie rod ends followed by a wheel alignment.
