My Caravan drives just fine most of the time. But maybe every two weeks I will start off and the steering wheel will vibrate, starting at about forty five miles an hour and then getting worse up to seventy. I can then stop and let it set for a couple of hours and the problem disappears and does not return for another two weeks to a month no matter what I do to recreate the problem.

Hello,

I have seen where the CV axles wear allowing the axle to vibrate which is what you are describing. Here is a guide to help you see what you are in for when changing the axles out:

Please run down this guide and report back.
