SO, when driving, I have this slight shake in the steering that will last for a couple seconds then go away. Its random, no consistent speed or anything.
This sound farmiliar to anyone? Wheel baring?

I recently had a left front wheel bearing replaced. It sounded like a separated tire. A persistent knocking noise, slight feel in the steering wheel, but no difference when turning.
I researched replacing it myself because of mileage and CPO limitations, but, it was replaced under warranty.
Have you lifted both front wheels and checked for play in tie rods and steering components?
