Suspension Repair

How Do I Know if My Suspension Is Damaged?
Luckily, suspension problems are some of the most noticeable issues a vehicle can have. Signs of a damaged suspension include:
- One corner of your vehicle sits lower than the others
- Your ride feels rougher than usual
- You hear squeaking when braking or turning
- Vehicle pulls or drifts to one side while driving straight or taking turns
- If you lean on the front of your parked vehicle and move away quickly, it bounces more than twice
- Vehicle leans backward, forward, or to one side when you brake
- You see grease, oil, or obvious wear on your struts or shocks
- You notice uneven wear on your tire treads
Driving with a bad suspension puts you at higher risk of rolling over or failing to stop quickly enough in an emergency, so get on down to First Tire & Automotive as soon as you can if you’re experiencing suspension problems.
