Abstract

A system for monitoring vehicle wheel vibration is provided which includes at least a plurality of vibration sensors, each one monitoring a respective vehicle wheel for vibration. The system further includes a monitoring circuit to monitor each one of the vibration sensors for a sensed vibration signal, and an indicator panel to notify a vehicle operator of a vibration condition or problem. In an alternative embodiment, the system includes a communication module which transmits a vibration data signal through the vehicle's antenna by known communication technologies, e.g., cellular, satellite, etc. The communication module will transmit the vibration data signal either directly to the vehicle operator's cellular phone or to a central service station which will, in turn, contact the vehicle operator to indicate the vibration condition or problem.
