We have had the wheels balanced, front end aligned, and still the vibration. Problem is like a lot of car problems, it never shows up at the repair shop. We can be going as slow as 30 mph or 65-70 mph. It will vibrate for a few minutes and then for no reason it quits. Any ideas? Can't afford repair prices to keep changing parts.

Thanks

Hi there,

Steering wheel vibration can only be generated via wheels, tyres balance or distortion ..(front) brake rotors when brakes applied, or worn steering components, these must be all checked carefully, the problem will be here.
