ABOUT OUR POWER STEERING & SUSPENSION SERVICES
What’s included with our Steering & Suspension service?
When you bring your vehicle in for Steering & Suspension service, our experts will thoroughly inspect all shocks, struts, and springs for signs of wear or damage. If we find any worn, damaged, or missing steering or suspension parts, we’ll help you decide whether a replacement or suspension repair is needed to get you back on the road safely.
Because replacement of steering and suspension parts may change existing wheel angles, a wheel alignment is recommended with this service.
Why is steering and suspension upkeep important?
Your vehicle's steering and suspension helps provide optimal ride comfort and handling, so you don’t look forward only to the destination, but to the journey, as well.
Even normal road conditions can cause the shocks, struts, and springs of your suspension system to weaken over time, so they should be inspected regularly. Repairing or replacing worn suspension components sooner rather than later does more than help with stability, handling, and control. It can also prevent your tires from wearing prematurely.
How often should I have my steering and suspension checked?
Most manufacturers recommend a steering and suspension system check every 50,000 mi (80,000 km), but if you live in areas with poorly maintained roads or rugged terrain, you may want to come in more frequently.
