Steering wheel shakes

I have '16 hybrid and sometimes at low speeds in electric mode the steering wheel shakes. Anyone experiencing this?

Does this happen after the car has been parked for a while? It could be a belt going bad in one of the tires....

No, it happens when I come to a complete stop and then proceed slowly in electric mode. For example, when I pull up on my driveway and wait for garage to open, then proceed, it has that weird shake. But not all the time.

Look closely at the tires both sides and check the tire. My experience with a similar shake is a bad tire / belt. If you do not have staggered rims, do a tire rotation and see if the problem still exists. At least this should rule out the tires as the cause.
