I just bought a new 2009 Sentra.
It seemed fine when I drove it off the lot, but now it has vibrations from the floor while driving at most speeds, particularly 30-45 mph.
Any ideas on the issue?
Thanks

Hi there,
This will be a tear wheel/tyre problem or a rear suspension issue, check the wheels and tyres for damage and balance.

Thanks for the reply!

Would it be a tire problem if it doesn't go away at high speeds?

I would be thinking that tis is a tyre problem, a balance will show if there is a deformity with the tyre or rim.
