I have a 2005 Ford Escape. When my speed hits around 50mph I get a vibration. I have brand new tires on the escape and had them balanced 3 times but still have the vibration. Also took it to Ford and they said they can't find anything wrong. Still have the vibration. What to do?
 
This happened to a friend of mine. You need to tighten the bolts on the wheels. When they get loose on vehicles they tend to shake around if you aren't speeding up or slowing down. It might also be a loose suspension component, have them check all the bolts in there (tie rod ends, shocks, etc) because a wobbly car isn't safe at all, especially in winter
 
Did they check the alignment or the wheel bearings? If not you might need a front end alignment or new bearings. Or perhaps one of your new tires is defected.
