Front End Vibration - Why?!

[Sahpo]

Rotated the tires which now have about 3500 miles on them. There were no issues prior to the rotation and balancing. They were balanced/rotated. They were balanced again and my 2023 XL 2.0T still vibrates. The vibration is felt through the steering wheel, which as I am told is a sign that the issue is with the front end. Has anyone experienced this? What might be the issue? In advance... Thanks much!

Steve,
Maybe CV joints / axles.
How many miles total?

Yea have you had CV's replaced? Fairly common issue pre 25. Lots of good info on here might have to try a few different search strings.

How many Miles are on it.....?

Warped Rotors..
CV Axle..
Transmission Shudder....
Bad Tire..
Did not balance the tires right...
Bad Tire Shop...
..Lug Nuts -Torqued by Hand With a Torque Wrench?
Sway Bar End Link....
Build up on hub surface...

And the answer is...

They still aren't balanced right.

Discount hooked me up with that same issue a few times. Now I go to Costco or the dealership. Dealership fixed me 2 of the 3 times after multiple trips to 3 different discount tire locations.

I guess I should knock on wood.
My '22 has 70K and rides smooth as can be. Never had issues. Only recalls.

Before you retorque those lug nuts, remove each front wheel and check for debris stuck to the wheel mounting surface or the hub.
If that's what's causing your vibration, no amount of lug nut torque will totally eliminate the vibration.

Having something similar with my truck after getting new tires...makes me wonder if Discount Tires doesn't know how to balance them correctly or something?

Mine is at the dealer getting repaired for that right now. However it was more of a wobble instead of a vibration. They're replacing the driver side drive axle. I took it in yesterday, parts minus the bolts or nuts came in today. Hopefully it's done tomorrow. They sent an email, saying they wanted $93 for a cabin air filter replacement and $725 for the axle. I told them no on the filter and check the warranty/recall for the axle. The engine air filter they wanted $31 to replace so not tooooo ridiculous.
