Thanks!

Not too normal for a SC with OEM wheels. I would take it back to Sewell and tell them you want it fixed since you just got it.

Could be just from sitting a while at the dealer, but also could be tires being out of round from sitting a long time, alignment and most often is balance issues.

Sewell should take care of you-they are great with these types of things.

There are dozens of posts on steering wheel shakes... I know because I've started some and contributed to many. Usually on aftermarket 20" wheels though.

This should be fixed fairly easily...

Keep us posted
