Does your car vibrate? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'll be driving on the road and then all of a sudden my car starts vibrating. Sometimes it lasts for 5 seconds, other times it lasts for 1-2 seconds. This has happened since a few days after I got the car. I've driven my mom's trailblazer through the same exact roads and everything is just normal.

My guess is it's the tires not aligned correctly or something. Would this fall under my warranty?

The P Zeros flat spot bad when sitting. Sometimes mine vibrates worse after making a turn. Does it happen after they get good and warmed up?

maybe get your alignment checked? Alignments are a 50/50 thing. It should be covered but again, it's up to the dealer. Doesn't hurt to ask though.

I have a 2LS so I don't have the Pzeros. I bought a spare wheel+tire and I installed it then removed it to see if it was a good fit. Maybe I didn't tighten one of the lugs good enough on the reinstallation of the original wheel?

Nothing but a broken heart as I knew my baby was getting hurt.

I've had this problem since about August/September. Are you by any chance in the valley?

I've tried pressing the answer button on the steering wheel but I never hear anyone say anything.
