Front end vibration 85 c4

[dremn2]

Hi everyone, When I hit about 65 -70 mph the steering wheel develops a bad vibration. At speeds below that everything is normal. I spoke to the previous owner of the car and he said that it has done it for quite awhile and said to "just hold the steering wheel a little looser and it wont bug you as much"....... He never had it checked as he didnt drive the car very often. Any ideas??

When was the last time you had the tires balanced? And or had it aligned?

Hi Eagle, that was my thought also. I have only had the car a cpl of weeks. The previous owner only put about 1000 miles on the car in the past year. Im hopeing that is all it is. Everything else is great!

I HAD THE SAME THING. AFTER AN ALIGNMENT AND TIRE BALANCING IT WAS GONE.
