How to Know if Your Car Suspension Needs Attention
Recognizing the signs of a failing suspension system can save you from costly repairs and ensure your vehicle remains safe to drive.
Here are some common indicators that your suspension may need attention:
- Uneven Tire Wear: This can be a sign that your suspension is not distributing weight evenly, leading to uneven tire contact with the road.
- Excessive Bouncing or Swaying: If your car continues to bounce after hitting a bump or sways excessively during turns, your suspension components may be worn out.
- Difficulty Steering or Poor Handling: Struggling to maintain control or experiencing a loose steering feel can indicate suspension issues.
- Visible Damage to Suspension Components: Any noticeable damage, such as cracked or broken parts, should be addressed immediately.
- Unusual Noises: Clunking, squeaking, or other strange sounds while driving can point to problems with your suspension system.
- One Corner of the Car Sitting Lower: A sagging corner may indicate a damaged or broken spring.
- Oily or Greasy Shocks or Struts: Leaking fluid from shocks or struts is a clear sign they need replacement.
- Extended Stopping Distances: Longer braking distances can result from worn suspension components affecting the vehicle's stability.
If you notice any of these signs, bringing your vehicle to Christian Brothers Automotive Arapahoe Road for a thorough suspension inspection and repair is crucial.
