high speed vibration S40-V40 2002

posted by  someone claiming to be fremont on  Sun Nov 17 20:51 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Hello,

I just got my new 2002 V40 for one week. I have been driving carefully since it only 500 miles. However when I get to 50 mph on the highway, I start feeling vibration. It gets more obvious when I get to 65-70 mph. It's the kind of vibration like you open the rear window(not that strong)but sometimes I can feel it on the steering wheel.

Since it is a brand new car, should I just ask dealer to check wheel balance and aligment?

BTW, I have roof rails installed(only 2 side bars) but I don't think this could cause any vibration.

Anyone has similar experience?

thanks in advance!
