Another Problem For Daniel B. Martin
My problem:
This has to do with vibration in the steering wheel. AS i drive down the freeway around 80mph my steering wheel picks up a very appearent vibration/shimmy. At 60mph its a very slight vibration, but as i go faster the vib. worsens. My alignment is golden, i just got new tires put on and my car drives straight as an arrow. What could be the problem?
PART 2.
I live in Utah so driving up and down our canyons can be pretty fun untill this started to happen as well. AFter driving down the canyon and using my breaks frequently when i press the breaks to slow down just a litlte....not even hard breaking but just to stop speeding up my car vibrates too! Harder i press the breaks the harder my steering wheel and cars vibrates. I wouldn't be surprised if the two problems go together.
What advice can u give me? Anytthing i can look at at home, or questions to ask my nearby garage? Thanks a lot (in advance)

Could be a reason due to damaged hub, wheel bearing or unbalanced tire. It's really hard to warp a hub but that somehow happened to me. My steering wheel was vibrating after 60 mph and while applying brakes too. There is no way to check for damaged hub, the only way to find out is to replace it along with wheel bearing.

My car doesn't vibrate with speed, but does so with braking. The harder I brake the harder it vibrates. Feels like my car is going to fall apart.
