GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

I have this problem when I'm on the highway I sometimes drive the same speed as everyone else without looking at the speedometer and end up going up to 80mph. Anyone else get a slight wobble after hitting about 80mph?I never felt this going the same speed in my GrandAm, Sunfire or Firebird cars in the past. Maybe it's the height of the Vibe?

Dirt in the rims or tires need to be re balanced

Or maybe the Rotors are warped? You notice any vibration under hard braking?

I don't get a vibration when hard breaking, I'll try to get it rebalanced and see how it goes. So it's not the wind affecting it huh?

Depends on where you feel the wobble. If it is in the steering wheel, most likely it is the wheels needing to be balanced. If the whole car is moving, then it could be the wind or other issues.

wheel balance, guaranteed.if your shop can't get it right, take em elseware.

Sounds like a wheel unbalanced. Had some warped rotors on a car and when it got over 70mph it vibrated but it also vibrated under braking.

Another $.02 - be sure to ask for "road force" balancing as the standard spin balance may not take care of your 'higher' speed balance issues.

Balance is it!If the vibration is in the wheel it is in the front wheels and if it is in the seat it is in the rear wheels. Get a competent shop with good equipment to rebalance all four. Have them check to make sure none of your wheels are bent. If the balance does not fix it, tell them to do it again until it is right.

I agree w these guys... Did you recently have your tires changed? Or rotated?
