Got a shake?

When your vehicle is shaking when driving not only is it annoying, but it is also a sign that something is wrong. It's your vehicles way of saying hey I want some attention.


Your vehicle has many components that can contribute to the shaking. The shaking could be from something as simple as a lost wheel weight, an issue with one of the steering or suspension components. Anything from shocks, struts, tie rods, axles to track bars and drag links on pickups. 


A shake can also be from your engine. A misfire can feel like a shake when driving. A bad motor mount can cause a shake from the engine not being secured properly.


If your vehicle starts to shake violently then you need to slow down as quickly as you can in a safe manner. This is considered a death wobble and when that occurs you can lose control of your vehicle.


Shaking while braking that is an entirely different scenario. Most likely if you have a shake while you are braking then it's a warped brake rotor or an issue with one of your brake calipers. 


If you're having an issue give us a call and let us take care of you.

Happy Adventures,

Heather
