Nissan Sentra braking noise and wobble issue despite strut replacement on Nissan Sentra

Problem overview

Some Nissan Sentra owners report experiencing braking noise and wobbling issues even after replacing the struts. These problems may be attributed to worn brake pads, which are a common cause of such noise. Additionally, bad brake rotors can lead to both noise and wobbling during braking. Some owners also identify brake caliper issues, such as sticking or uneven pressure, as contributing factors. Furthermore, loose or worn suspension components, including bushings, ball joints, and shocks, can exacerbate wobbling problems, particularly when braking. Lastly, issues with the exhaust system, such as loose hangers or shields, may also result in wobbling. If these symptoms persist, it is advisable to inspect these potential causes for effective resolution.
