FRONT END VIBRATION
Some vehicles may experience an intermittent front end vibration that feels similar to mild to severe wheel tramp. The key factors in diagnosing this
condition is that it is intermittent and generally occurs, if at all, at intermediate speeds (45-60 mph) during slight acceleration or climbing a slight incline.
This condition is related to the right side CV joint and axle shaft. To correct this condition it is necessary to replace the right side CV joint and axle
assembly. Refer to the shop manual, pg. 490-11 for the correct procedure. The factory has corrected this condition in production.
