Steering and Suspension

Vehicle Steering

When your fleet vehicle does not steer correctly,

it can make driving more difficult, and it can negatively affect other components of the vehicle, such as the tires and the axle. The most important components of proper steering and suspension are wheel alignment, shocks and struts and balljoints and tie rods.

Wheel Alignments

Have your vehicle checked if you notice:

Excessive or uneven tire wear.
The vehicle pulls to the left or right.
Feeling of looseness or wandering.
Steering wheel vibration or shimmy.
The steering wheel is not centered when the vehicle is moving.

Reduced tire wear

Improper alignment is a major cause of premature tire wear. Over the years, a properly aligned vehicle can add thousands of miles to tire life. Most tires are replaced prematurely due to adverse wear.

Better gas mileage

Gas mileage increases as rolling resistance decreases. Total Alignment sets all wheels parallel, which, along with proper inflation, can minimize rolling resistance.

Improved handling

With all the vehicle components aligned properly, road shock is more efficiently absorbed for a smoother ride.

Safer driving

A suspension system inspection is part of the alignment procedure. This allows worn parts to be detected before they cause costly problems.

Vehicle’s suspension system

Supports your vehicle’s body and keeps your ride smooth

Beyond this, your suspension system and shocks help you keep control of your vehicle while in motion. If your suspension malfunctions, it can dramatically impact how your car rides and how well you can control it.

Outside of rough handling, drifting and pulling during turns, oily shocks and the bounce test are all signs that your suspension may be in need of repair. When you suspect that your suspension system needs repairs, give Jack's 5-Star Clinic Inc a call. Our team can accurately diagnose your vehicle.
