    Check wheel bearings, swivel hub bearings, all tie rod ends, steering damper, radius arm bushes and wheel balance.

    Get someone to swing the steering wheel back and forth while you're under the front of the car to check the tierod ends
    for play.
    Jack up the front of the car, try to wobble the wheels in and out, top to bottom and side to side to check for bearing
    wear.

    If it happened all of a sudden, check for thrown wheel weights.

    What GUtsey ute said. might sound silly but, check the wheel nuts too.
    Any work been done recently? If so, check that first.

    Are your panhard bushes rubber or urethane?

    Hi new to this was wondering if the panhard bushes would wear tyers uneven, have just had tie rod end done and new tyers put on and have had a wheel alignment as well. Have only done about 400 ks and the tyers look like they are wearing uneven. Thanks for anyone with information.

    Possible but very unlikely, more likely the wheel alignment has not been adjusted correctly.

    I agree with Tony. some wheel aligners could't line up a crap into a dunny!
