So my brothers friend has a 06 wrx and she is having a crazy wable out of the front driver side wheel. She says when she is going about 70 on the highway and starts to brake, the drive front wheel starts wableing. I haunt had a chance to look at it just seeing if anyone had a similar problem. I was thinking maybe ball joints??

She said she too it to garage one in San Jose and the said it could be ball joints or the control arm.
What would be wrong with the control arm..? The bushings?
Any help would be great.

Thanks.
Mike

 

could be something as simple as warped rotor, which can feel like a wobble. It may be a wheel bearing but if its that far out, it should make a whirring noise with the wobble. good god i'm drunk.

 

it could be bent like she hit something or as little as unbalanced wheels or the wheel weights came off from normal driving...but it should be covered under warranty still so check with the dealer....

 

without seeing the car, warped rotors.

 

with my eyes close, warped rotors. In most cases, if it happens during braking, then it's likely the rotors.
