Suspension Steering Service
The vehicles suspension absorbs the bumps in the road and allows the brakes and tyres to work well.
Shocks and struts can wear out and affect handling. If you car bounces excessively over bumps and leans hard in corners, your shocks could be warn. Look behind the wheel for the shock or strut and look for leaking oil. This is a sure sign of a worn shock or strut. Also check your owners manual, some will give an estimate for shock or strut life.
Ball joints. Ball joints wear and can cause your car to wander while driving down the road. This is dangerous as they can separate and cause you to lose control.
Control arm bushings can wear out over time and will allow the control arm bar to make a clunk sound when turning corners or at low speeds. A fairly inexpensive part to replace, but gaining access can be tricky depending on the vehicle.
The shocks, struts and ball joints should be checked regularly.
