Why Does the Car Steering Wheel Shake?

[Sanders]

Car steering wheel shaking can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Wheel issues: First, check the tire pressure to ensure it is consistent across all tires. 2. Wheel imbalance: The original wheel balance weights may have fallen off or become deformed, causing the front end to wobble at high speeds, leading to steering wheel vibration. 3. Loose lateral thrust rod ball joints or bracket looseness, resulting in unstable driving. 4. During driving, collisions may cause deformation of the steering tie rod and lateral tie rod, wear and looseness of ball joints, or irregular tire wear, altering the toe-in or toe-out. 5. While driving, damaged steering dampers, oil leaks, or deformed front suspension springs can affect stability. Note: 1. All four wheels should be perpendicular to the ground. If they tilt inward or outward, the car will shake while driving. 2. In severe cases, the car may feel unbalanced even on regular roads, not just at high speeds. 3. The more precise the wheel alignment, the smoother the car will run, and the steering wheel won't shake.
