Sometimes my van gets an oscillating wobble when at medium speeds. When passing or getting passed by a big truck is another time when it happens but not all the time. I have had all the suspension parts renewed and the wheels balanced and alignment checked. My front tires have worn badly on the outside edges. I am not in California anymore and have not been able to find the root of the problem. My mechanic thinks my wheels may be out of true. I plan on rotating my wheels front to rear to see if it changes anything but do not believe that to be the problem. I would really like to get this sorted out before I buy 5 new tires and if needed rims. Any ideas? Thanks, Pat in SC |
