Hi Robert,

My 2018 Nissan Versa has been shaking a lot on the highway recently, and I donâ€™t know why. My friend said that itâ€™s because the wheels are out of balance: what do you think?

Thanks,
Jenna

Hi, Jenna!

From how youâ€™ve described the issue, it sounds like your tires on your 2018 Nissan Versa could be out of balance. This is something you should take care of sooner rather than later.

If your Versa starts to shake when traveling at around 60-70 mph this is often a sign that one or more of your tires are out of balance. Although, other things could provoke this issue with your car.

As tires get older, they tend to change their shape which puts them out of balance. This can be caused by various factors including wear and tear on your front-end parts, and your driving style.

To fix this problem, weights are placed on both the inside and outside rim planes. This process is what balances your tire.

My advice is to visit our Service Department and let the Technicians inspect your vehicle.

Thanks for your question, Jenna! Please donâ€™t hesitate to contact Kirkland Nissan, Washington again if you need anything else!
