Debaul Posted January 18, 2021 Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 I drive a Ford Edge 2009 SEL with over 174K miles on it. Recently I have been having issues with the right front wheel- It vibrates during acceleration. I have done alignment several times, changed tires, changed hub bearing, yet the problem persists. Kindly help, it's driving me nuts.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted January 20, 2021 Report Share Posted January 20, 2021 A broken engine mount can cause this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debaul Posted January 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2021 @enigma-2 thank you so much, I have been suspecting my engine mount. The engine vibrates (jerks) at idle and a scan revealed a bad ignition coil. changed the coil, but the vibration persists. I think it all point fingers at the mount. Could this be the reason the car pulls to the left side when I am driving? Alignment fixes this for a short time, but after a while, the pull resurfaces.

enigma-2 Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 I don't think a bad mount can cause a car to pull as the wheels are mounted independently of the engine. As the alignments don't hold, I would have the tie-rod ends checked (esp the right). If fact, I'd get a Ford "the works" oil change and tell the mechanic to pay close attention to all of the suspension components. Rear axle as well. Its something that's included for the price, but they'll pay closer attention if you have concerns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 check lug nut torque. check wheel integrity. rotate tire to rear and reevaluate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1004ron Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 I would also check the drive axle inner and outer joints for signs of molybdenum grease leakage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
