Steering wheel shakes when I make big turns

My steering wheel for my 98 Deville shakes(vibrates) sometimes when I make bigger turns. My alignment seems fine so is this normal for this year and model or is there a reason for this problem? Thanks!

Sorry, Here's where I bombard you with questions.

What direction are you turning when it shakes the steering wheel? By "Big turns" you mean sharp turns right? Are there any noises as it shakes the wheel? Does it also shake the wheel if you're just going straight and stopping?

Thanks for the reply. The steering wheel shakes when I am turning in the right direction. Big turns, meaning sharp turns. The steering wheel makes a vibrating noise as the steering wheel is shaking. The steering wheel doesn't shake when I am going straight or stopping, only on turns. Thanks again!

I think it's your drivers side CV halfshaft. Go get it checked out to be sure though.
