Hi guys! first time car owner. So about 2 days ago my car has started ”rumbling” while i drive or feels like i’m driving over something constantly. when i speed up to about 45mph it isn’t noticeable but below that it is. It’s got about 55k miles (inherited from grandma but stopped using it around 2013). I think i hit a pot hole but i can’t remember. If anyone could help that would be amazing. hopefully just a rock in my tire 🥲

    Check every single one of your tires for visible damage and check the pressure. You may have a flat and not know it. Could also be suspension or alignment related if it’s not the tires, considering you said you hit a pot hole.

      possibly a flat which would suck because i just dropped $140 on flat a week ago 🫥and the pot hole wasn’t that deep so i doubt it could be suspension but i don’t really have a way to check . if i jack it up and take a look what should i be looking for?

        If a shop performed an alignment, your suspension is probably in good shape. A lot of (good) alignment shops won’t touch it if the suspension or steering shows very much wear.
