Honda Element Repair Question
Asked on November 28, 2007
Vibration while turning
04 element, auto, all wheel dr, 93K, stock size wheels and tires
I hear, more so than feel, a vibration while turning sharply. It sounds like the tires rubbing but no tire wear or tire to body contact is visible. I do not hear the sound while turning equally sharp and driving in reverse.
Can you give me an idea what to expect? I'll be happy to donate if you have any ideas.
thank you

I have this same problem in my element. One mechanic thought is was one of the mounts in the rear of the car. IF you go to the back tires and then follow the axle that come out of the tires to the center of the car. You will see this mounting bracket that is hooked to the undercarriage of the car. It holds two rubber mounts on either side of the bracket. The mechanic I spoke to thought this was the issue.
Hope this helps.
