The suspension system absorbs road impact, maintains tire contact with the pavement, and supports vehicle stability. When suspension components wear, ride quality and control can decline gradually.

Suspension repair begins with inspection. Shocks, struts, and related components are evaluated to determine whether service is appropriate.

Common Suspension Concerns

Drivers often request suspension inspections for:

  • Excessive bouncing after bumps
  • Clunking or knocking noises
  • Uneven tire wear
  • Vehicle leaning during turns
  • Rough or unstable ride

These symptoms can indicate wear in shocks, struts, joints, or mounting components.

What a Suspension Inspection Includes

Suspension system evaluation typically involves:

  • Inspection of shocks and struts for wear or leakage
  • Evaluation of suspension joints and bushings
  • Inspection of control arms and related components
  • Assessment of ride stability and component movement

Service recommendations are based on confirmed wear or performance concerns.

Why Suspension Condition Matters

Worn suspension components can:

  • Reduce braking stability
  • Affect steering response
  • Increase tire wear
  • Decrease overall ride comfort

Addressing suspension wear early helps maintain safety and driving confidence.
