LOCAL. HONEST. PROFESSIONAL.

Your vehicles steering and suspension systems work together to keep the tires on the pavement and your vehicle under control. If your vehicle bounces, sways, squeaks, or makes you work hard just to turn the steering wheel, we have the team to get you back on the road.

SUSPENSION SERVICES

Most drivers wonder about their vehicle's suspension when the ride gets rough. With a damaged suspension, it feels like you've lost a little bit of your control over your vehicle. Listen to that instinct - the lean, the drag, and the nosedive are warnings of heightened rollover risk and increased stop time.

INDICATORS YOUR SUSPENSION MAY BE DAMAGED

  • You see oil, grease, or obvious wear on your shocks or struts.

  • You hear squeaking, especially when turning or braking. 

  • Your ride feels rougher than usual.

  • Your car leans forward, backward, or toward one side as you brake.

  • Your vehicle pulls or drifts, especially around turns. The prime suspect: bad shock absorbers.

  • Your vehicle pulls or drifts while driving straight. The cause could be your suspension - or your steering, your tires, or your brakes. Rule out uneven tire pressure, then see a mechanic.

  • One corner of your vehicle sits lower than the others. Suspect a broken spring.

  • Your tire treads develop a specific, uneven wear pattern called "cupping."

 

INDICATORS YOUR POWER STEERING MAY NEED REPAIRS

  • Noise when turning the steering wheel: A loose drive belt can squeal, and a bad power steering pump can clatter.

  • Change in steering response: A stiff or slow-to-respond steering wheel can also point to a bad power steering pump.

  • Vibrating steering wheel: A loose belt or power steering pulley.

  • Low or dirty power steering fluid: Oxidation, metal flakes, or bubbles can mean air in the power steering fluid lines or a bad power steering pump.
