These are just a few signs that your suspension system might need attention. While many drivers overlook their suspension, it’s critical to your vehicle's handling, comfort, and—most importantly—safety.
A healthy suspension ensures a smooth, stable, and safe ride. At Dana Meyer Auto Care, our ASE-certified technicians are here to help Albany, CA, drivers maintain their suspension systems. Let’s walk through your suspension survival checklist to make sure your ride is road-ready!
A rough, bumpy ride is one of the first signs of a suspension issue. If your car doesn’t absorb the shock from potholes or uneven pavement, your struts or shocks might be worn out.
Test your shocks by performing a "bounce test." Push down on the front or rear of your car. If it bounces more than 2-3 times, your shocks likely need replacing.
Does your vehicle drift to one side even when you’re driving on a straight road? This could be a sign of misaligned wheels, uneven tire wear, or worn suspension components like control arms or bushings. A car that pulls to one side is not only annoying but dangerous, especially during emergencies.
Bring your car to Dana Meyer Auto Care, where our team specializes in suspension and alignment services to get your car back on track.
Your suspension plays a huge role in how evenly your tires wear. If you notice bald spots or uneven tread, it’s a warning sign that your suspension isn’t holding the tires properly against the road. Uneven tires can lead to reduced traction and longer stopping distances, especially in wet weather.
During your visit, we’ll check your tires and suspension system to ensure your ride is road-ready.
Strange noises when driving over bumps or turning corners could indicate damaged suspension components, such as worn ball joints, bushings, or stabilizer links. Ignoring these noises can lead to further damage, increasing repair costs.
If your car dips forward dramatically when you apply the brakes, it’s a sign that your shocks or struts are worn out. This issue can reduce your ability to stop quickly and safely.
At Dana Meyer Auto Care, we inspect and replace worn shocks and struts to keep you safe on the road.
