SteveCK Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 I've got a 2011 Edge SEL. I've recently just noticed that there is a wobble in what feels to be the passenger side front wheel when I turn the steering wheel from 12 o'clock to 1 o'clock, and then stops at about 2 o'clock position. What's odd is that the wobble is really only felt when I'm not giving the car any throttle. Anybody have an idea what could be going on?

enigma-2 Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) I'll hazard a guess as possibly tie rod ends. Edited May 10, 2016 by enigma-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveCK Posted May 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 When I jack up the car on the the frame (not on the control arm) and I try to wiggle the wheel I get no play. Do I need to perform this test with the car jacked up on the control arm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 No you want the wheel to be able to move. If neither front wheel moves try turning the wheel to the 1'oclock position. If it's not the tie rods then it might be the rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enigma-2 Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Just out of curiosity, have you checked the tightness of the front lug nuts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
