2006 mustang shaky front end
About 3 months ago I had an uneven tire that could've blew out on me at any time it was causing my front end to shake very bad but before knowing it was the tire I thought it was the inner and outer tire rods.... after changing the tire a month later the shaking came back I can feel it when im going over 40mph and higher and when I go over a bump I can feel the car move a little more than usual. can someone please help me I don't want to keep going to the dealer and keep getting over charged.

Sounds like you might need a front end alignment and balance job. In the mean time check for bent rims up front. Jack up the front end and spin the wheels to see if there is any deviation from true. Also check the wheels to see if you have any play when you try to move that wheel, side to side and up and down. Good luck!

these cars are mega sensitive to balancing (old design )
u have to get em 100% perfect to avoid steering wobble...
u will need to find a balance shop that will put the time n effort in to get it right..near enough wont cut it..

Did you just replace one tire? How old are the other tires? A 2006 with only 66k miles does an awful lot of sitting. You may have a flat spot causing the vibration or the fact that one tire is wore more than the other
I know mine has a slight vibration from sitting for months at a time causing the tires to get a slight flat spot
