A new battery?

Would a sign of needing a new battery be, when I put on the air and something else the car starts vibrating? Could it be that the things that I am using are pulling too much power from the battery and causing it to make the car vibrate?

If the pulley is bent, it would make the noise/vibration all the time. The AC belt is always turning, the compressor just starts compressing air when you flip the switch.

I have the same problem. But with me, I turn on the rear defrost, and the car seems like it is using too much of a load when I am stopped at a light. The idle gets pulled down, car vibrates, etc. When I'm driving, it's fine. My alternator puts out 74.4 amps, 14.37 volts, and I just got a new battery. I can't figure it out at all.
