I’m not sure if this is the right board for this.

Very recently my FWD hybrid has started to have a wobble in the steering wheel only when accelerating.

It is non existent when doing normal acceleration. It only shows up for example if I’m merging on the highway.

steps to notice

3/4-full throttle
steering wobbles/vibrates more the more throttle is given
Let off throttle, no more wobble

I am not really a mechanic so I did some reading and it says that a worn/damaged cv joint could be the problem. (I hope not).

I didn’t notice any noise when steering, and no other effects out of the ordinary. Acceleration and steering seem fine otherwise.

I am going to take it to Ford but it takes forever to get an appointment so I thought I would ask for help here.

Insights are appreciated thanks again.


UPDATE: I can’t see any damage but this has to be inner cv joint taking to ford
