2016 Cadillac Escalade Esv Platinum 170k miles control arms upper and lower changed struts front rear changed axles changed tie rod ends sway bar links and bushings pretty much whole suspension done. But when I’m driving on highway and the steering wheel is turned slightly to left I feel like a loose vibration noise but when it’s turned to the right to vibration or loose feeling.
Second thing is when I am picking up speed on the highways it feels like the car is pushing back as I’m accelerating toward. Thank you for your responses in advance.
pretty much whole suspension done
did you have a wheel alignment performed after changing all those parts?
All those parts affect your alignment.
@imperator
One or both parts of suspension failed so I decided to change all of the suspension. But not all at once. No more than 2000 miles between all parts that I’ve changed. The last thing done recently was axles. I didn’t see any boot tear on axles. I just did it thinking that’s where my loose feeling vibration was. The truck was aligned before the axles were changed and the vibration/ loose feeling was still there. So I’m not sure what it could be. I will still go and check out the alignment
I would try rotating the wheels to see if it makes a difference.

Did all components of the suspension test as bad? If your car is turned to the left. then you probably have an alignment issue. Have you gotten your alignment checked, especially with all of the suspension parts you replaced? Start by going to an independent alignment shop and they'll check it out for you.

Throwing parts at a problem is not generally the ideal way to fix your car. Especially considering that you said that there was no signs of tear on the axles.

Unfortunately when you change the axles. Your alignment could be thrown off. It doesn’t hurt to get it checked again.
@fishingandcarsenthusiast123 axles do not affect alignment as long as you put everything back together the same way. And like he said, the vibration was there before he changed them too.
