Shakey in the Wheels

Recommended Posts

New guy here looking for some help. I have a 2008 edge fwd and I've been having a shaking/vibrating issue in the front end. If I'm driving 40mph or over and have to steer slightly to the right, I get this nasty shaking. It almost sounds and feels like my tires are wobbling hardcore. But if I steer it hard to the right it doesn't do it. Only if I turn slightly to the right. Any ideas on what could be causing this? Thanks in advance!

Welcome!  How many miles on your Edge, and do you have chrome clad wheels?

 

First thing to eliminate is tires & wheels.  Examine carefully for lost wheel weights, damaged/bent/cracked wheel, improper lug nut torque, and tire wear/tread separation.  If all looks good, rotate tires front to rear and see if the shaking continues abated.

 

Second, inspect the suspension and steering for worn components, specifically bushings.  Control arms/ball joints, tie rod ends, sway bar links/bushings, etc.
