Is it normal to feel vibration in the steering wheel at all?

Whitley2001B to Mechanic Advice@gearhead.townEnglish · 1 year ago

So, i hit a speed bump a little bit faster than I should have and of course I got paranoid.

I drive a 2012 camry SE and now I don’t know if I messed anything up hitting the bump at 25mph.

I noticed that when I drive the car I can feel vibration in the steering wheel a little bit. It’s not shaking and i don’t seem to be veering off in any direction. The wheel isn’t shaking and the car goes straight whenever I let go of the wheel.

However, I do feel vibration in the steering wheel when I drive. Is ANY feeling of vibration normal?

What should I get checked and roughly how much would this cost?
