My car has a vibration on the front end. I have taking it for alignments, tire balancing none of those is the issue. We check for CB joints, wheel bearing not the issue. Someone made a statement of the same issue I am having with my car saying that it’s a class action lawsuit out take it to a transmission shop get it fix and submit invoice to get reimbursed.
