Vibrations

[sharpie3]

2010 Equinox with 101,000 mi.
Picking up a vibration in the steering wheel above 50mph when I stop accelerating. I’m thinking it’s a wheel bearing.
Thoughts?

A wheel bearing sound or symptoms should change if you turn to the left or right. It should be worse/louder one way, and less/quieter the opposite way. Unless the bearing is really trashed, unlikely as you seem to have just noticed things.

Could also be a worn ball joint.

Get the car off the ground and give the front wheels a hard shake, a witn ball joint will show itself.

Vibration when you let off on the throttle makes me think CV joint.
