Why Does the Steering Wheel Shake When Braking on the Highway?
1 Answers
Here are the reasons for steering wheel shaking when braking on the highway: 1. Wear: When the brake discs wear unevenly, stepping on the brakes at high speeds can cause the steering wheel to shake. 2. Braking imbalance: When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, due to unbalanced braking torque, the left and right wheels on the same axle may experience one or more instances of out-of-sync movement within a cycle, leading to a phenomenon of braking looseness. 3. Uneven rolling speed: When the imbalance in braking torque reaches a certain level, it causes the left and right wheels to roll at unequal speeds, resulting in the wheels swinging back and forth. This swinging motion is then fed back to the steering wheel.
