How Do You Know the Suspension is Damaged?
Your vehicle’s suspension system absorbs bumps in the road. If your morning commute feels like you’re bouncing down the road, you might have some issues with your vehicle’s suspension system. The problem could lie with your shocks or struts, wheel alignment, or other parts of the car. We can verify your suspicions with a full diagnostic and external inspection of your suspension system.
As you drive, you might pick up on something that points to a serious issue.
Signs that your suspension may be damaged include:
- A bumpy or bouncy ride
- Turns make you feel like you might tip over
- The ride feels bouncy
- The car pulls to one side or the other
- The vehicle leans back when you accelerate
- The car leans forward when you brake
At Thunderbird Automotive Specialists, we can inspect your shocks, springs, and other suspension components to identify any issues plaguing your system. Based on our findings, we can:
replace worn shocks and struts
replace broken springs
replace leaf springs
replace control arms
replace worn bushings
What Are the Signs of Steering System Problems?
When you turn the steering wheel, you expect the car to go in the direction you intend it to. When you’re not turning the wheel, you expect the vehicle to stay on course. If this is not the case, your vehicle may be due for steering system repair.
A lack of steering control is more than an inconvenience — it’s a serious hazard.
You may have steering problems if you have these experiences:
- The steering wheel is unresponsive
- You have uneven tire wear
- You have difficulty steering at low speeds
- You have a crooked steering wheel
- There is fluid leaking from the power steering pump
You can count on our team of ASE-certified technicians to identify worn components and recommend the following repairs to restore safe and responsive handling:
power steering fluid flush
power steering pump replacement
rack and pinion repair or replacement
steering column repair or replacement
