Question Steering wheel shakes - have answer thank you forum!!

Hi all ... my steering wheel starts to shake when I reach 60 mph and above.

Is there a common malady that this is a symptom of?

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Sounds like a tire balance problem right away.

Most likely tire balance. Just had my Subaru tires balanced. Shook pretty bad from 60 - 75 mph. Ran it to 85 with no issues today. Much smoother.
