Vibration in the front end

Since we have bought our 2014 CLA45 there has been a vibration under load from the front end. We thought it was tires out of balance but we had them rebalanced and the alignment done and it still exists. I would assume if there was a broken belt in the tire it would vibrate all the time and even worse at higher speeds. Has anyone had any drivetrain issues that have caused this same issue?

I haven't experienced it a lot but I figured it was wheel hop.

It's definitely not that. It only happens during mild acceleration. For example, if your trying to get up to speed to get on the interstate it does it. It feels like an axle almost. I ordered new tires as the next thing to try, I rally hope it's a broken belt in the tire.

Check your turbo bracket. They are problematic on this car and are easily prone to breakage.
