Your car’s suspension system is designed to keep your ride smooth and your tires in contact with the road. Over time, wear and tear can degrade these components. Here are key indicators that it’s time to get your suspension inspected.

1. Vibration While Driving

If your steering wheel vibrates even on smooth roads, that’s often a suspension-related issue. It could also stem from unbalanced tires or misalignment.

2. Increased Stopping Distance

A weak suspension can make your vehicle nose-dive when braking, causing longer stopping distances and increasing the risk of an accident.

3. Trouble Turning the Vehicle

Does your car feel unstable while turning? You could be dealing with worn shocks or struts that no longer keep the body balanced during sharp maneuvers.

4. Uneven or Rapid Tire Wear

This is a clear signal that your suspension isn’t distributing weight evenly. Pair this with our Tire Change & Repair service for best results.

5. Oil Leaks Around the Shocks

Take a look underneath your car. If your shock absorbers are oily or greasy, that usually means they are leaking fluid and not working correctly.

Why Suspension Maintenance Matters

Ignoring suspension issues affects more than comfort—it puts pressure on your brakes, tires, and even your engine. Regular inspections help prevent larger issues down the line.
