Post Vibrations

I have 4,500 miles on my 2002 CLK 430. However, from I purchased the auto it had vibration when I started on the highway. On one ocassion is was so bad, I thought I had blown a tire and pulled off the highway. Anyone had anything similar. Took car into dealer and still having problem.

All of them, as much as I can...
Exclamation You drove 4500 miles with this problem???

I'm assuming you JUST bought the car...
The dealer should never have given you back the car with this condition.
Tell them to put it on a Hunter GSP9700 wheel analyzer.
If they don't have it, find one in your area.

Vibration

Sounds like a wheel problem?

Also....and I don't want to raise any alarm....but make sure the car wasn't in an accident that may have damaged the front end....
