How often should I have my steering and suspension system checked?
It is recommended to have your steering and suspension system checked at least once a year or whenever you notice any symptoms of issues. Regular inspections during routine maintenance services can help identify and address problems early, ensuring a safe and smooth ride.
What causes steering and suspension issues?
Steering and suspension issues can be caused by various factors, including normal wear and tear, rough driving conditions, potholes, accidents, and lack of regular maintenance. Components like shocks, struts, ball joints, tie rods, and control arms can wear out over time and require replacement.
How do I know if my shocks or struts need to be replaced?
Signs that your shocks or struts need to be replaced include excessive bouncing after hitting a bump, a noticeable decrease in ride comfort, fluid leaks from the shocks or struts, and uneven tire wear. Replacing worn shocks and struts is crucial for maintaining vehicle stability and comfort.
What does a suspension system do?
The suspension system supports the vehicle’s weight, absorbs shocks from the road, and helps maintain tire contact with the road surface. It consists of components like shocks, struts, springs, and control arms, all working together to provide a smooth and stable ride.
Can I drive with a suspension or steering problem?
While you can drive with minor issues, it’s not recommended as steering and suspension problems can worsen over time and lead to unsafe driving conditions. Addressing these issues promptly ensures your vehicle’s safety and performance.
What is a power steering system, and how does it work?
A power steering system assists the driver in turning the steering wheel, making it easier to steer the vehicle. It uses hydraulic or electric actuators to apply additional force, reducing the effort required to turn the wheel. Problems with the power steering system can make steering difficult and should be repaired promptly.
