November 23, 20205 yr Figured I'd make this an all encompassing thread since I didn't see one. (Search sucks!) I've got a weird vibration on my 2014 Lincoln MKS, it's FWD. It feels like a tire out of balance, but I just had them balanced/rotated at Discount Tire. I can feel and see it at low speed as a slight wobble in the steering wheel. At 70 it's worrisome. I've eyeballed the wheel and there's no apparent damage that would have bent the rim and the tire looks fine, no broken cords visible. Frankly, I'm stumped. Edited November 23, 20205 yr by RPM
November 24, 20205 yr Did the problem start immediately after the rotation and balance? It's quite possible that Discount didn't get a weight on properly, and it came off.
November 24, 20205 yr Also, some might respond here that "it's because you touch yourself at night", but be advised that I beat my dick like it owes me money, and my truck has no handling issues.
November 24, 20205 yr Could be any number of things in the front end, including CV joint. How many miles?

November 24, 20205 yr I had a similar issue after buying new tires from Costco. It was the balancing of the tires. Took them 2 tries before they fixed it.
November 24, 20205 yr Bearing is a possibility but usually that presents as sort of a low grinding. I am guessing it's your CV joint or something else is loose. My first thing is to Jack Up the Wheel and grab the tire and see if I can force any play in it. If I can wobble it, then forces of the car will really make it move. Tires are not showing any odd wear are they?
