Steering Wheel Buzz Deceleration

[JSparky]

Here’s an oddball.. I’ve had a strong steering wheel buzz for awhile now. Happens when I’m slowing down, from just under 20mph and stops at 16mph. I thought maybe it was a piece of poor fitting plastic on the back of the wheel, or a button on the front of the wheel, but it’s not.

Went through and torqued all my skids, sliders, and bumpers yesterday as part of some general maintenance and it’s still there. Any thoughts? My next try is going to be reducing tire pressure a bit to see if that helps.

It’s loud and you can feel it, this is not a faint vibe. It’s almost like the airbag is loose underneath the cover or something. It’s reproducible so I may take it to the dealer, but wanted to check with you all first.

Check this out if you have a chance. It's from the 4th gen section

That was a good read. It’s not so much a knock as a buzz/high frequency vibe, but I’ll give it a shot anyways.

I thought it was interesting too when I first found that. The good news is that it's easy to check from inside the cabin, and the bolts on the slide yoke are accessible through the DS wheel well.

Good luck getting to the bottom of it.

I had an issue similar to this except it happened upon accelerating from about 15-30 MPH. Turned out it was my exhaust pipe vibrating against my RCI skid plate.

Follow up. Turned out to be alignment related, my toe got knocked way off and was causing some scrubbing issues. Amazing what a good alignment can do. Anyways, consider this one resolved.
