What Does the Suspension System Do?
Your vehicle's suspension absorbs some of the movement from the road. If it's not working properly, your car is not only harder to control, but it will also prematurely wear down your tires, increase gas mileage and negatively affect wheel alignment.
How to tell if you have suspension problems:
- Unusual shakes and vibrations
- Bottoming out during bumps
- Excessive bouncing and swaying
- Leaking shocks or struts
- Nose-dives when braking
If you recognize any of these warning signs, schedule an inspection. We may need to replace parts to get your car handling properly again. In addition to suspension repairs, depend on us for tires, tire rotations, and steering components.
Steering and Suspension Repairs
- Ball joint replacement: Ball joints connect the wheels to the rest of the suspension system. Indicators of bad ball joints include hearing a banging sound, trouble steering, feeling vibrations in the steering wheel, or uneven tire wear.
- Tie rod replacement:
Indicators that you might need a new tie rod include the car shuttering or shaking while driving. If it is loose, the car may pull to the side as it follows a crack or bump in the road.
- Shock replacement:
An indicator that your shocks are worn out is excessive bouncing. Shocks are typically in the front of your car.
- Strut replacement:
Excessive bouncing also can indicate that your struts are worn out. Struts are typically found on the back of the car and both the front and back of trucks. Struts are encased by a spring that absorbs the shock.
- Suspension inspection:
An inspection will tell you if your suspension or steering is the issue. We can determine the specific issue to make the repair.
- Sway bar link replacement: The sway bar is also known as the anti-roll bar. It connects the front and rear suspension and works by forcing the inside wheel toward the ground when you turn a corner to reduce body roll. If you hear clunks or squeaks or your handling is off, it might be an issue with your sway bar.
Solve Alignment Problems Before They End up Costing You
A wheel alignment is an adjustment to the suspension angles that affect your tires and wheels. Every vehicle comes from the manufacturer with an alignment determined optimal for handling and tire wear rate. However, it's possible to knock a car out of alignment through time and use. If you hit a pot hole or collide with the curb particularly hard, you may change the alignment. In addition, a vehicle's alignment can change as suspension parts become loose over time.
Have you noticed your car pulling to one side? Are your tires wearing out more quickly, and unevenly? Have you been plagued by front end problems? If any of these things are happening when you drive, your vehicle may be in need of a wheel alignment. Finishline Auto Repair can help.
Road Hazards are Lurking Everywhere
A wheel alignment is not just important when you purchase and install new tires on your vehicle. Every day driving conditions cause wear and tear, which can affect how your vehicle drives. Minor road hazards are seemingly everywhere. Everything from uneven pavement, to potholes, to changing weather conditions can cause your car’s alignment to go out. If your vehicle does go out of alignment, this can spell possible disaster for you or any driver. You could lose control of your vehicle, which is potentially very dangerous for you and others on the road.
