Does your car shake when you gently press the gas pedal, especially between 30 and 45 mph? You're not alone! This is a common problem with several potential causes. In this video, we'll explore the 7 most common reasons your car might vibrate when accelerating at low speeds, and what you can do to diagnose and fix the issue.

Here are the top causes of car shaking during low-speed acceleration:
Worn Engine or Transmission Mounts: These mounts absorb engine vibrations, and worn mounts can cause shaking throughout the car.
Damaged CV Joints: These joints connect the wheels to the drivetrain, and worn or torn CV joints can cause shaking in the steering wheel.
Driveline Issues: Problems like worn U-joints, a damaged driveshaft, or a bad center bearing can all lead to vibrations and shuddering.
Wheel Imbalance: Unbalanced wheels can cause shaking at various speeds, including low speeds.
Torque Converter Issues: Problems with the torque converter, which transfers power from the engine to the transmission, can cause a shuddering feeling.
Brake Problems: Warped rotors or stuck brake calipers can cause shaking when braking, which can sometimes be felt during acceleration as well.
Engine Misfires: When an engine cylinder misfires, it can cause the car to shake.
