      horrible vibration

      2010 aveo lt, car runs great but at 60mph it has a horrible vibration in the dr side front to the point it feels like the tires coming off. The tire pressure is good and lugs tight so where do i start?? alignment, rebalance, ball joint?? it isnt noisy at all as if its got a bad wheel bearing...throw some ideas my way, thanx

      could be anything you mentioned. A visual inspection followed by a test of the joints and bushings for play is the only what to figure it out.

      How many miles are on it?

      How many curbs might you have hit?

      The first thing to do is to rotate the tires from front to back. If it's a wheel or tire problem you should notice an improvement.

      I had the same problem with front vibration soon after I got new tires. Went back to where I got the tires from. Confirmed defect in tires, replaced under warranty. Vibration gone.
