I have a 97 Stratus. The steering wheel started shaking two weeks ago. We had a big snow storm where I live. Now there is a knocking noise on the front drive side tire. I've no clue what it could be. I was thinking the CV Joint but my experience w/that is it does it when you are turning not when driving straight. My car shakes and makes this noise whether I am turning or driving straight. Any suggestions please? And maybe an idea on how much it would be to get it fixed? Thank you!

I would still look into the cv axle. Usually the symptoms that your describing is due to a bad inner cv joint, which will pop all the time and cause the vehicle to vibrate. Hope the info helps :)
