Re: 07 H3 Shakes on highway at 65+ mph, normal?
Weds. Update: H3 was sent from Carmax to Penske dealer for 'road balance' which could not be done at Carmax. Penske couldn't get to it until today, then they tell Carmax that it probably needs new tires. I'm assuming it must have still been shaking when driving at speed, didn't get that much detail in the voice mail. If Carmax replaces the tires and it still shakes only at 60+ mph, any guesses?

If the previous owner did not rotate the tires...the front tires are probably trashed......

Re: 07 H3 Shakes on highway at 65+ mph, normal?
Thursday update: Carmax service called this morning and said a couple of the managers went for a test drive in my H3 earlier today. They felt the 'shake' and approved to have 4 new tires put on at their expense. Not sure I'll get it tomorrow, so this may go into next week.... but, I guess it will be worth it to have the problem fixed (hopefully) and to get 4 new tires for the inconvenience.

Re: 07 H3 Shakes on highway at 65+ mph, normal?
4 new Precision Trac II tires installed/balanced and all is well. I know they're pretty low priced tires, but they ride smooth on the pavement and were no cost to me. If they last 2 years, I'll be happy and can move on to nicer tires at that time if necessary. Carmax really took care of us.... not sure they had a choice (if they wanted the sale), but they did and were friendly the whole time. Thanks for all the input everyone.
