Solution

Solution

1. Tire Inspection

  • Sub-steps:
    • Remove all wheel covers or hubcaps if applicable.
    • Inspect each tire for uneven wear, punctures, or bulges.
    • Measure and adjust tire pressures to the recommended PSI found on the driver’s side door jamb.

2. Wheel Balancing

  • Sub-steps:
    • Remove the wheels from the vehicle using a socket set.
    • Mount each wheel on a wheel balancer to check for imbalance.
    • Add wheel weights as necessary to achieve balance.
    • Reinstall the wheels and torque lug nuts to the manufacturer’s specifications (typically 80-100 ft-lbs).

3. Suspension Inspection

  • Sub-steps:
    • Lift the vehicle using a hydraulic jack and secure with jack stands.
    • Inspect all suspension components (control arms, struts, bushings) for signs of wear or damage.
    • Replace any worn or damaged components.

4. Wheel Inspection

  • Sub-steps:
    • Visually inspect wheels for bends or cracks.
    • Replace any damaged wheels.

5. Reassembly

  • Sub-steps:
    • Reinstall any removed components or covers.
    • Lower the vehicle and perform a final torque check on the lug nuts.
