About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
The vehicle has front-end vibrations at 60-65 mph (most noticeable in the steering wheel) like there is something loose or bad wheel balance. The dealer is not able to correct the problem through balancing, alignment, tire replacement, etc. Replacing tires to a different non-oe didn't help as well which bring symptoms to be non-wheel related but mechanical.
