When I drive my chrysler LHS on the highway at 65 mph or over, the steering wheel rattles pretty badly. However, it only does it when your coasting or pressing the gas slightly. When accelerating, even slowly it smooths out. What is the problem?

I would start with checking the CV-joints for play. When your foot is on the gas, it would take away the play. When you leave off, the pressure is released and it could cause a vibration.

Let me know what you find.
