helo75 03-03-2007, 06:27 PM Has anyone felt their Patriot get a case of the shakes? Was driving home from drill and it was pretty bad. The whole truck was vibrating....it felt like the engine and/or trans was "jumpy". Certainly not the smooth ride I have been used to for the last 350 miles. Did take it for a quick spin and it seemed to be ok but.... Does any have any ideas?

LabRat 03-03-2007, 07:48 PM It was probably snow in the wheels, maybe on the inside. It doesn't take very much to throw out of balance DMAG 03-03-2007, 08:17 PM It was probably snow in the wheels, maybe on the inside. It doesn't take very much to throw out of balance Agreed..it happens quite often after a good snow (or romp in the mud) ;) toirtap 03-03-2007, 08:45 PM After a good snow followed by some freezing rain, the roads can look smooth but feel like you are driving on railroad ties.
