If you notice anything unusual about your steering or suspension, you should contact the pros at Urb’s Garage for a professional diagnosis. We can easily pinpoint the issue and get it corrected in no time. If you ignore these problems, they can get worse over time and eventually lead to a safety issue if they’re not addressed promptly.
Steering & Suspension Issues
It’s important to understand some of the most common warning signs that could indicate you have a problem with your steering and suspension system. Some of these signs include:
- Your tires seem to shake or “wander” when you drive
- Uneven road surfaces or dips in the road are more difficult to drive on
- You’re having difficulty steering in general, or your steering seems to be slipping
- Your vehicle bounces dramatically anytime you drive over a bump or pothole
- The car seems to pull to one side whenever you drive
Inspecting Your Steering and Suspension
If you’re concerned about the condition of your steering and suspension, our ASE-Certified mechanics will examine all of the components to ensure that everything is operating properly. In addition to those components, here are a few items we’ll also take a closer look at and be on the lookout for:
- Visibly uneven wear to your tires
- Any alignment issues you may experience
- Your power steering fluid levels and the condition of the fluid
- If your steering wheel is out of alignment, and if your tires are out of balance
- The condition of your impacts or struts
- Check for tightness of nuts and bolts, and re-tighten them as needed
- If there are any loose or damaged power steering belts
We will also inspect your wheel and tire balance to ensure that the issue is not tire-related. With a thorough inspection and a proper diagnosis, we have the solution to all of your steering and suspension problems.
