Suspension & Steering FAQs
How do I know if I need new shocks or struts?
Excessive bouncing, nose dive when braking, and uneven tire wear often indicate worn shocks/struts. We’ll test and confirm before repair.
Can alignment fix my car pulling to one side?
Often yes, but we first inspect tires, brakes, and suspension components to ensure no mechanical issues are causing the pull.
Is it safe to drive with a clunking noise?
Clunks may signal worn ball joints, tie rods, or mounts. Continued driving can be dangerous — schedule an inspection ASAP.
Do you offer performance suspension upgrades?
Yes — we can recommend upgraded shocks, springs, and sway bars for improved handling, matched to your goals.
