Default Steering Wheel Wobble

Hi there ,

I've noticed past few weeks a slight "wobble" as I'm driving in the steering wheel. More at lower speeds like less than 80-90km/hr.
wobble equals as I'm holding the wheel or let go the steering wheel wobbles/vibrates a bit back and forth every so slightly.

It comes and goes. I forgot to mention it to ford when I had the Diff rebuilt this past week.

My tires are in the yellow per say.

Align is solid and had done a few months ago...

Maybe hit a pothole? Maybe tire coming apart? Only way to know, take it to a shop. Personally, I'd do my homework and know what tires I wanted prior to going in.

Does the wobble change/increase when you put on the brakes?

If your tire is on the yellow line then the lane keeping system wobbles the steering wheel to let you know.

It's a tire out of balance.

I had this issue on a different vehicle.... the wires( belts) gave out ... so i was told. Caused from a hard hit or over inflated.
