Default little jerk inside car

I feel little jerky while travelling in freeways inside my Toyota Camry LE V6. This happens only on freeways. The tires are pretty new. Could this be because of high air pressure inside the tires? Or is this a problem with the car?

it could be from over infalting or unblanced tire(s).. i have the same model but not sure if the same year i had the tires blanced without rotating and it still feels a little jerky or viberation. then went back and told them to re-blances and rotate and have felt any viberation or jerky anymore. this was at es schwab.. feel labor

Yo .. check ur rims ... they might be out of balance .. yup i just faced the same problem with my ford focus so i took it for a check in the tier shop ... the same machine which does the balance has an infra=red device that inspects the tier & the rims & compairs them both together.
my problem was 85% solved as i had some balance on the rear tiers but with small dents on the rims that might cause a slight not noticable vibration on free ways.

hope that would help

no problem..if you bought your tires from a tire shop (i.e. les schwab, big O tire, etc..) then they should rotate and re-blance it for free of charged. but if you got from else where, not really sure on how much they cost.

good luck!

well .. i was charged about $12.00 for both rear tiers including the balance .. but if u want them checked only .. it should be free of charge if u go 4 the same dealer who replaced ur tiers or there might be a small charge for doing it.

all the best
