What to Expect With a Suspension Service
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Whether scheduling online or over the phone be sure and let us know what you're experiencing so we can provide fast and accurate service advice.
2. Diagnostics and Inspections
Drop off your vehicle and the shop will get to work with inspections and diagnostics using the same equipment as the manufacturers to determine issues and next steps.
3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
Henry Ford coined the term 'tune-up' while developing his initial automobile prototype. He observed that properly functioning coils would buzz, and if they didn't, he identified the need for an adjustment, which he termed a 'tune-up'.
Warning Signs for Suspension Service
Your suspension system is considered part of your drivetrain, and it is
integral to your car’s functionality. Your car generates tremendous
forces, vibrations, and inertia, and for the vehicle’s frame to
properly withstand them, it must be finely balanced. Your suspension system
provides this balance and ensures the smooth, efficient operation of your car.
Bad vehicle suspension can result in:
- Unnecessary tire wear
- Alignment problems and damage
- Vibrations and noise
A healthy suspension and driveshaft system isn’t just important to your safety and the integrity of your car, it’s also money-saving. These systems contribute to fuel efficiency, which means more miles to the gallon and fewer trips to the gas station.
