If your car’s steering wheel shakes when you brake, it’s often due to issues with the braking system or suspension. One common cause is warped brake rotors. When rotors become uneven due to heat or wear, they create an imbalance when the brake pads contact them, leading to vibrations that are felt through the steering wheel. Another possible cause is worn-out brake pads, which can cause uneven pressure on the rotor, further contributing to shaking. Misaligned or damaged suspension components like tie rods or wheel bearings can also lead to vibrations during braking. In some cases, unbalanced or misaligned wheels might exacerbate the issue, particularly at higher speeds. To fix the problem, it’s best to have a mechanic inspect the braking system and suspension to identify and repair any damaged components. Regular brake maintenance can help prevent this issue from occurring.
