Nothing good about vibrations in '98 Rogue
Q: I own a 1998 Nissan Rogue that I have brought back to the dealer three times relating to a vibration in the steering wheel. It has new tires, balance and alignment. This only happens between 20 and 40 mph and stops during acceleration or deceleration. I was told this was normal with this type of transmission. The vehicle has only 24,000 miles on it. I can't believe a vibrating steering wheel is normal on any vehicle. Do you have any advice?
