Vibrations at 60 - 70 mph

Folks, When I drive at this speed there is vibration felt at the steering wheel, any speed above or below there is no vibrations...Any thoughts?

Probably need wheels rotate and balance.

if the vibration is felt when braking then your rotors are wharped...there is a TBS for this at the dealer and they should fix it for you...if the vibration is felt at high speeds then you just need to rebalance your tires.

Same problem here...Just got my tires balanced and it fixed the problem. Costco did it for me for $4.00 a wheel.

You need to get wheel alignment and/or what everyone else said.

It's definitely a wheel balance.

Sounds like you need a rebalancing, go to Discount they'll do it for free!

I had the same problem with my old car a '92 mercury sable and I did wheel alignment and the problem went away. But that was a Sable and this is an Acura. Do the wheel balance first and if the problem continues do an alignment.
