| Description of the problem | In may 2015 i experienced a violent shaking in the steering wheel and brake pedal. It was worse when traveling downhill at highway speed on a highway. On june 1 i took it to the dealer with 16757 miles. It was dismissed as poor braking habits that warped the rotors. The tires were rotated and that seemed to help but the shaking was still evident. By 47000 miles and many visits to the dealer they relented and i paid for two parelli tires at cost due to "tire rot". The violent shaking has now ceased; however, there is a shaking in the steering wheel while driving on city streets. I am confident this must be caused by warped rotors. They were warped on the june 1 visit and they remain that way today july 6, 2016. |
