Default Shaking wheel on a New Honda Coupe?

Hi Guys, I just bought my New 2010 Accord Coupe last month, and it has only 900 miles on it.

I m happy with everything but then i found something after two weeks, maybe i just didnt notice the problem.

I found the steering wheel shakes when the car reaches 65-70 miles/hr, it is not crazy shaking but it does make me feel uncomfortable. Funny thing is that it goes back to normal when i push the car to 72-80, i just dont understand. the problem is from when wheels? or enggine? or something else? what shall i do? find the dealer? please give me advice, thank you

Lightbulb Hi New Member

Any time you have a brand new car, you go to the dealer and tell them you want it fixed and don't let them give you any bull about it.

Do it today before the car kills you and your passengers..

By the way , Welcome to the HAF

I did some more search yesterday, i found that i am not the only one have the same problem, the car only does the vibration at the speed of 60-70, it disppears below/above that speed. some people have the same problem also on their new coupe or sedan, people try to re balance, aligment, swapping with new rims, new tires,all kind of things , but all end up not fixing the problem. some people think thats a desing flaw. I have an appointment with the dealer tomorrow, let see what they can say and will do.

so unacceptable that the problem happens on a new Car.
