Default Can I detect a bad CV Boot? Car seems to shake/shutter at 40 mph

speeds similar to my wheel issue earlier this year. The wheel issue is resolved, but noticed a very similar experience taking the family out last night. No shake in the steering wheel, but a similar experience.

If a CV boot, is it covered under CPO?

Default it could cause a shake. best way to tell is to pull the wheel and look at the boot.

here is a pic of mine when it tore:
