Here's the deal-
My gf just bought an 06 Pontiac G6 sedan and the steering wheel vibrates/shakes. This happens when you are going any speed >45 and apply the brakes. It doesn't vibrate at slower speeds when you go to stop, only higher speeds. This isn't a small vibration either, it jerks the steering wheel pretty roughly. I kinda think it might be warped rotors? The car has ~20K miles on it...could it be tires need to be balanced? It seems odd that it doesn't always do it, and it doesn't seem to make a difference from being cold or hot. She is somewhat freaking out about it b/c it's her first "new" car and it already has this small problem. I don't think it's something to get too upset about, but I want her to be safe too. I know there are alot of Pontiac owners here, anyone have any ideas?? Thanks in advance!
