Why? To even out tire wear. The front tires will wear much quicker than the rears on a FWD vehicle. The front tires are pulling the vehicle and are also steering the vehicle. This causes friction which causes wear. You rotate by simply putting the rear tires on the front and the front tires on the rear every 10,000 miles. Click the link and go to Tire Rotation.
No,but tires out of balance will cause this. Have them balanced and rotated.

If you are going to get your tires rotated you should also align and balance them. The reason for this is to make sure nothing is out of place. You can get this done at places like AutoZone.
It is necessary to balance your tires when they are rotated because blancing results in equal air pressure on all 4 tires. Less air in one of the tires will result in faster wear, resulting in the need to rotate more often.
Check your tires. I had the similar feeling after I had my tires rotated. Come to find out the tires were not balanced.
Many manufacturers suggest every 5000 miles.
In my opinion tires should be rotated every 3k miles along with oil change and filter change. Tons of people agree and I have always done this on all my vehicles
Not rotating your tires will cause niosy saw tooth wear. Tires should be rotated at least every 10,000 miles.
Refer to your owner's manual for exact guidelines, but most manufacturers recommend. Check the manual.We recommend that tires be rotated every 3000 to 5000 miles even if they don't show signs of wear.
Most auto mechanics will recommend that you get your tires rotated every 5,000 to 10,000 miles that you are driving. I would recommend bringing your car in every 7,000 miles.
Have the tires balanced and rotated.
