Steering & Suspension Repair in Gilbert, AZ

There is a reason you feel a sense of freedom every time you sit behind the wheel of your car. There is a romanticism to it, in turning the ignition and pulling your car out on the open road. With the windows rolled down and the music cranked up, there is nothing more freeing than the feeling of the wind rushing through your hair as you sing along to your favorite songs.

To feel that freedom, though, it’s essential that your steering and suspension systems are well-maintained. After all, to get to where you want to go, you first have to be able to steer your car in that direction.

The Importance of Your Steering and Suspension Systems

Put simply, your steering and suspension systems keep your car’s wheels attached to the car and situated on the ground. Without either system, your drive would be a rough, unstable mess. If you have ever driven a car that was difficult to control or bounced needlessly along even smooth pavement, then you’ve experienced the frustration of driving a car badly in need of steering and suspension repair.

To dive a bit deeper, your car’s steering and stability is the result of a complex system of struts, shocks, springs, and bearings that work together to keep your vehicle going in the direction you intended as smoothly as possible. When these parts can work together harmoniously, your ride should be easy to handle. Hit enough potholes, though, or just through normal wear-and-tear, these parts can begin to falter, with the end result being the potential for a costly fix-up.

When to Bring Your Car In

Generally, you should have your car’s steering and suspension systems checked every 50,000 miles, even if you are not experiencing any issues. This cuts down on the risk of something going unnoticed and keeps your car driving safely.

However, you will need to bring your car in immediately if you are dealing with any of the signs of a malfunctioning steering or suspension system:

• Bouncy or shaky ride
• Difficult to control steering wheel
• Loud noises when driving over bumps
• Uneven tire wear
• Wandering wheels
