1993 Plymouth Sundace vibration issue Sign In
Hello,
I have a question about a possible tire or brake rotor issue. I noticed a few weeks ago that while driving on the highway my 1993 Plymouth Sundace started vibrating quite roughly. My first thought was maybe I had a tire going down. Upon inspecting it, I noticed that the front passenger tire was very hot to the point where it was melting the wheel cover. Could this be a tire, rotor, or brake issue?

That would be a brake that's not releasing correctly. I would expect you should be experiencing some pulling when driving to one direction and the opposite direct when braking. This could be a frozen brake caliper, bad brake hose or other brake issues. it needs to be inspected right away without driving it any more.

I dont think so because I just had the brake pads and calipers replaced within the last 2 weeks or so.

And you think that eliminates the possibility? That makes it even more likely.
