Why is the steering wheel of my Ford Ranger shaking when I drive at high speeds?

I recently purchased a Ford Ranger and I've noticed that the steering wheel starts shaking when I reach high speeds on the highway. It's not a violent shake, but it's enough to make me feel uncomfortable while driving. What could be causing this issue?

Hi Samantha, this shaking is most likely due to unbalanced tires. Make sure to have your tires balanced and aligned regularly to prevent this issue.

It could also be a problem with your suspension or steering components. I suggest having a mechanic check it out to pinpoint the exact issue.

I had this same issue with my Ford Ranger and it turned out to be a loose lug nut. Check to make sure all the lug nuts are tight and secure.
