    Just bought a 2019 limited 4x4 40k miles. My steering wheel is shaking a bit when braking. Any ideas what that could be? Do I need an alignment?

    Sounds like warped rotors if it’s only shaking when braking. I would have the rotors resurfaced and see if you need pads too.

    If the shaking is just in the steering wheel (when braking), your front rotors are warped. If you feel the shaking or pulsing in your brake pedal or seat, the rear rotors are warped.

    Is this something I should I alert the dealership about since it’s been one week of my purchase? I also have bumper to bumper warranty

    And be persistent, if not fixed correctly call them out on it. It may take them a while to figure it out..
