It was my first time to ever drive on an intersatate 2hours from home.. so i actually finally got the car to go atleast 80
ive only had the car for about a month now.. so i noticed that the car starts to shake from 40-61mph then i gets smooth again..
please Help..
Im thinking it might be the shocks? well hopefully its only the shocks..and not some other suspension problems..
thanks.

- Tue Oct 20, 2009 6:55 pm #151911 the tires are new and balanced..
the steering wheel is straight..
i know it doesnt necesesarly mean its aligned when the steering wheel is straight..well im asuming the alignment might be on another suspension prob yeah?

- Tue Oct 20, 2009 7:16 pm #151918 Could it be a bent wheel?

It could be badly worn bushings. Does the car make a harsh noise when it goes over bumps?

The rear end of the vehicle could be out of alignment as well.

Maybe a worn out wheel bearing? Does the car loose speed quickly when you let of the gas?

Just throwing some stuff out there.

- Thu Oct 22, 2009 10:19 pm #152379 since the wheels and tires have just been balanced and the tires are new i would guess that it is a bent wheel or bad cv joints.
