  1. Do you know how easy that is to diagnose? Could it be a matter of re-balancing the drive shaft?
  2. I have been doing some more research into this issue...As I am reading I am seeing people refer to a "Clunk" that is felt near the arm rest and it occurs when accelerating from stop lights etc. This has been happening on my Edge for a while now, didn't really think much of it. They are saying it could have something to do with the driveshaft slip yoke. Could this also be contributing to my vibration issue?
  3. @enigma-2...it doesn't seem to matter what the temperature is.
  4. @Macbwt..I will have to look into the chrome clad wheels. That sounds like exactly what is happening to me. Do you have any suggestions on how to clean behind the chrome class?
  5. I have thought it was something more than the wheel balance, but when I take it places they tell me everything is fine...I am starting to think I am going to have to live with it until I get rid of it... The wheels that are on it are 18" with Michelin Latitude Tour HP tires. As far as the road force balance...I am pretty sure this has never been done. I will have to look into a local place that offers that. The last time they pulled my wheels they told me that my rear rotors had some "Low spots" but they said they didn't need to be replaced...Could these rotors be causing the vibration issue even without applying the brakes?
  6. I have a 2014 Ford Edge with 20K miles on it. I have been dealing with a chronic vibration (felt in the seat not in the steering wheel) for the past year and a half now. I can not pin point a pattern of any type, it appears to happen at random speeds, no rhyme or reason. I have taken this car to every tire shop around, every Ford dealer around, and no one can find the issue. I replaced the tires about a month ago because the Ford dealer said that needed to be the first place I start in order to find the issue. I have had the new tires balanced about 3 times now and still get a vibration. The interesting thing is that every place I go says that all the wheels are in great shape (no bends etc), but when they put the wheels on the balance machine, they balance out differently each time. For example I took it to a tire dealer in my area, they pulled all 4 wheels and put them on the balance machine. They spun each tire 4 times consecutively...3 of the wheels each time had a different reading on the balance machine..1 was perfect every time. This same thing has happened at multiple tires shops/dealers etc. No one can figure it out! Very frustrating! Can anyone shed some light on this issue??? Thanks!!
  7. Hi All, I seem to be having the same issue as everyone here. Last week I had a couple issues with my wheels being out of balance and now I noticed this "Clunking" sound when I accelerate from the stopped position, or when I apply the brakes while driving slow (5-10 MPH). The sound doesn't appear to happen all the time but is pretty loud and noticeable and can be felt in the arm rest in the center of the car. I am not sure if these 2 items are linked but I am also now noticing when I apply my brakes I am feeling a vibration in the brake pedal. I am not sure if any of these items are connected at all, but seems strange that this all occurred once my tires thru a weight and went out of balance. Can anyone shed some light on this issue? Thanks!
