Some of you have read my post about a shakey steering and a vibration I have in my 07 V-8. Well, sadly it still goes on, Firestone has put 3 sets of new tires on it, today I was back there and they were convinced I had a driveline problem. Took it to the dealer, charged me a 141.00 to tighten the flange nut, still shaking. Back to Firestone today, they send me to a transmission shop to let them look at it. Firestone claimed there was a little movement where the driveshaft goes into the back of the transmission. The transmission shop says it all seemed normal, that it had to have a little slack for proper operation. He drove it and thought it was tire issue. He recommended having the tires Road Forced Balanced. Instead I went back to Firestone( these people are sick of seeing me), I told them I wanted them to take those Bridgestone tires off and put the Michelin Cross Terrain back on it, the original factory tires. They agreed to do that, but it really did not help with vibration. My question is after 3 sets of new tires being put on, could road force balance fix the problem?, Or is there another problem that is being overlooked? BTW, the extended warranty I bought from the dealer is a joke. The transmission and driveline have to fall out before it is covered. I want buy another extended warranty. Highway Robbery!!! Any ideas ??
