    This is why this is one of the best automative forums on the web, guys like Top Fuel and Fummins. Saved me some money and more important, a piece of mind as well.

    Sounds like a wheel assembly problem - either out of round or out of balance. I can see cheap tires causing both.

    Balanced, round wheels won't shake or wobble at any speed, regardless of the condition of the struts.

    One ghetto way to eliminate cables off your list of possible problems is to just run your booster cables from the battery right to the starter. I spent more than a few hours trying to get some Crusty old diesel trucks going. Frame to engine ground strap turned to dust.
    I haven’t run into a cable problem with mirages though. Just starter and battery problems really. And that kick panel connector, but I don’t think it affected the starter at all.

    I can’t recall and don’t want to go look at my car but there might be a starter relay in the under hood fuse box. If so, I’d try swapping it with a relay that from
    Something you can live without.

    So far so good today, have a lot of things to try when it breaks again. Although crossing my fingers it doesn't break.

    I've got a 17' mirage inside that I just finished fixing an unrelated(hopefully) wiring problem, buttoned everything up and it wouldn't crank over. Couldn't hear the start solenoid click. Only a few small relays on the under dash fuse box. I double checked all the connections behind the kick panel and around the fuse box and it'd started up once. Then nothing. Pulled all the relays up a little bit and reseated them then and now it starts every time.

    There's a TSB for that.

    TSB: Extreme Cold Ambient Temperature - Relays Fail to Operate

    TSB: Error Codes with Cold Weather Operation

    Well, several.

    Yeah I remember. We had two 2017’s have that problem on the same day a few years ago. This latest problem car was inside for a few days. And was starting fine minutes before.
