Steering vibrates at high speed

Hey all the steering on my 08 QX56 vibrates like crazy when I get up to 70mph and above. Anyone experience this?

how long have you had the car?

sounds like your wheels are out of alignment. happens to lots of cars.

I just bought it last week. Did some testing, but did not test it at high speeds. It has 122000 miles so who knows. I am considering buying a new set of pads and rotors and also doing a force road test in addition to rotating the tires. This would also give me a new starting base line so I can gauge wear and tear.

Yeah could be alignment, wheel balance, or even wheel bearing.

point is , take it into a suspension shop or the dealer and pay the 80 bux to diagnose...

So, changed the rotors and pad,then bought new tires and the vibration is now gone. One thing though....for another topic, seems like the darn truck wants to flip over when I hit some rough spots on the road. Thanks for all the feedback.

bad shocks. if you have the big tow package with the compressor and air shocks in back, you may need to check those.

you can also search the internet for "bump steer" "armada" since your car is essentially an armada mechanically wise.
