There is a good chance that the right wheel hub has gone bad and needs to be replaced. The ABS sensor is apart of the wheel hub, there is a speed ring on the wheel hub for the ABS sensor to read which will activate the ABS when wheel lock up is detected. When the wheel hub is damaged or worn, the speed ring is no longer lined up with the sensor and will need to be replaced. A bad wheel hub can also cause the wheel to come off if the bearing inside fail and seize causing it to explode.

Good luck and have your wheel hub replaced soon as possible and try not to drive it on night way speeds till your repalce the wheel hub. Thank you for using Fixya.

Steering is vibrating when ot reaches 100kph & above. What may be the root cause? What is to fix? Thanks

The first thing to have check are the tires, the from tires since the steering is vibrating. Also take your car to have all of the tire balance, if they are out of balance it will vibrate at higher speed. Thos two are the most common issue for a vibrating steering wheel.

Some time ago I got new tires put on my 2010 dodge ram 1500 and after that the truck kind of vibrated I figured just the tread off the tire so I ignored the vibrating. Now I currently have abs. Esp....

If it wasn't vibrating before the new tires and was fine then it has to be the tires maybe just one, or sounds like they didn't torque the lug nuts to the right specs, putting the rim out of alignment, but if they took the wheels off to rebalance then that rules that out. I would go to a different tire shop and have them check it out....Also on a long shot they bent something in the suspension when changing the tires, possible fell off the jack or something similar. Good luck

My 2005 crv honda vibrates at 40klm and through to 70klm tyres have been changed around at the honda dealers but still vibrating

When you had the tyres swopped round, did they check the balance of each wheel and if all wheels ran true (not bent or buckled), or any deform in a tyre. Generally if you can drive through a vibration it is due to a wheel being out of balance. Other cause of vibration, is wheel alignment being out, (constant, and gets worse as you speed up). Drive shaft out of true (balance or bent)

Caldina knocking at front right tyre and abs light is on

If you have ABS and that warning light comes on, you should have the system scanned for trouble codes. The code will point you in the right direction to look for the problem.
Could be a faulty brake caliper, or other problem.

Corolla altis 1.8E ...bought in 2009 abs light on once start the engine for a second.... front driver tyre sound loud from normal if driving below 100 km/h..

If the ABS light goes out, and stays off you do not have an ABS issue-it is doing a self-check for that second. As for the noisy tire, you could try moving it to a different location to see if the sound moves-if so, you need a tire, if not, check your wheel bearings at that wheel.

What is wrong when vibration of chasis is noticed when driving at a low speed of 20-30miles per hour, whell balancing and allignment have been done

Please check if the engine mountings and the drvies are not wobbling at this speed. You must lift up each wheel and test for noise or wobbling of the bearings. Also assuming that your tyres are new , if not replace the tyres as there could be uneven wearing making this to react at slow speeds. You will need to check on the balance rods, the suspension springs / bushes and silencer mountings for any slackness. this might also produce the sympathetic vibration. Hope you get this right.Good day

At low speeds, there is a loud vibration when I press on the brake at random times or right afterwards. Sometimes the ABS light and Trac light come on. Then there is no vibration.

Sound's like the abs is trying to engage usually a wheel speed sensor or wiring to sensor cuases that.Have your repair shop check for abs codes and go from there.

Car vibrates at slow speed, veering to the right,steering wheel vibrates; vibration less at higher speeds; within last two weeks couple of times steering hard, revved up in neutral it comes back to easy...

check tyres for wear-wheel balance needed if visibly ok-have a wheel alignment after a tyre rotation-best even tyres to be put on fronts-they will carry out a safety check all suspension and steering before doing the wheel alignment
