Suspension & Steering FAQ
How long do struts and shocks last?
Most struts and shocks last 50,000-100,000 miles or 5-7 years. Rough roads, heavy loads, and pothole impacts can reduce lifespan. Regular inspection determines when replacement is needed.
Why is my vehicle pulling to one side?
Vehicle pulling can indicate worn ball joints, tie rods, or misalignment. It can also indicate brake issues or uneven tire pressure. We diagnose the cause and fix the problem safely.
How often should I get wheel alignment?
Alignment should be checked annually or after hitting a pothole or curb. Proper alignment reduces tire wear, improves fuel economy, and ensures safe handling.
What's the difference between struts and shocks?
Struts combine suspension support and dampening in one unit and are more common. Shocks only dampen motion. Both provide ride comfort and handling. Your vehicle uses one or the other, not both.
Can bad suspension affect my safety?
Yes. Worn suspension components affect braking distance, cornering stability, and vehicle control. Uneven tire wear from misalignment increases blowout risk. Suspension repair is essential for safety.
