When to come in
Signs you need suspension service
Drivers around the I-96 / Schoolcraft corridor put real miles on their cars, and Michigan potholes and road salt add wear. If you notice any of these, stop in at 30481 Plymouth Rd.
Bouncy or floaty ride
Worn shocks and struts let the car keep bouncing after bumps and lengthen stopping distance.
Clunks over bumps
Knocking often comes from worn sway-bar links, ball joints or control-arm bushings.
Loose or wandering steering
Play in the wheel can mean worn tie-rod ends or steering parts.
Humming that changes with speed
A growl that rises with speed is often a wheel bearing.

Questions
Suspension FAQ — Livonia
Do potholes really damage suspension?
Yes. A hard hit can bend parts, knock the alignment out and wear joints faster. If the car feels different after a pothole, have it checked.
Do shocks and struts need to be replaced in pairs?
Yes. Replacing both on the same axle keeps the car handling evenly side to side.
Why do I need an alignment after suspension work?
Replacing steering or suspension parts changes the wheel angles. An alignment sets them back to spec so the car tracks straight.
