The Meineke Car Care Center on Pleasant View Road in New Cumberland will help if your car shakes when accelerating.

You were headed home after the pickleball game the other day when you noticed that your car had begun to shake when accelerating.

Autotrends.org says there are many reasons a car would shake or tremble when accelerating. Among them: inadequate combustion, internal transmission problems, CV joint failure, driveshaft problems or a frozen brake caliper.

"While you might be capable of maintaining your lane of travel, even when your vehicle is suffering from a noticeable vibration, placing yourself in a situation where you are forced to do so is never advised," autotrends.org says. "The truth is, in a worst-case scenario, attempting to drive in this manner puts you at a slightly higher than normal risk of being in an accident. After all, a vehicle that rides poorly is far more difficult to control than one which operates optimally."

Autotrends.org adds, "Furthermore, certain issues that cause a vehicle to shake when accelerating can actually do secondary damage if not promptly addressed. This is the case in the event of a misfire on one or more cylinders. Under these conditions, unburnt fuel is passed downstream through a vehicle’s exhaust, often at the expense of a catalytic converter."

The wisest thing to do is find a trusted car care pro to track down the cause of the shaking and get it repaired.
