Why is a Healthy Suspension System Essential?
Imagine driving on uneven terrain or taking a sharp turn. Your suspension system absorbs these impacts, keeping you stable and in control. A damaged suspension doesn’t just make your ride uncomfortable; it increases wear on other critical parts of your car, like tires and brakes, and can even compromise your safety.
If your car is bouncing excessively or feels unstable while driving, it’s time to let the experts at CRC Auto Repair take a closer look.
When Should You Have Your Suspension Checked?
Knowing the warning signs of a failing suspension can save you from costly repairs down the line. Watch out for these red flags:
- Drifting During Turns: Feeling your car "pulling" during a turn is a sign your suspension isn’t keeping the vehicle stable.
- Excessive Bouncing: Does your car bounce multiple times after hitting a bump? This could mean your shocks or struts are worn out.
- Low Vehicle Clearance: A sagging corner or uneven height might indicate a broken spring.
- Unresponsive Steering: Steering feels stiff or slow to respond? It could be due to suspension problems.
- Strange Noises: Clunks, creaks, or rattles while driving? These could be loose or worn-out components.
