STEERING AND SUSPENSION
What is it?
The steering and suspension systems are essential, safety-critical components of your vehicle. They work together to determine how your car rides, handles, and responds to the road. These systems should be inspected at least once a year—usually in combination with a wheel alignment—to ensure optimal performance and safety.
What does it do?
-
The suspension system maintains the proper relationship between the wheels and the vehicle’s frame or body. It absorbs energy from road irregularities like potholes, improving ride comfort and stability.
-
The steering system transfers your input from the steering wheel to the wheels, allowing precise control of your car’s direction.
-
Together, these systems provide smooth handling, vehicle stability, and driver control.
Typical Wear and Tear
Over time, steering and suspension components wear down and may need replacement. Regular inspections are key to keeping your car safe and comfortable. Wear can be affected by:
-
Driving habits
-
Road conditions (e.g., potholes or rough surfaces)
-
Vehicle type and design
-
Type of steering and suspension system
-
Maintenance frequency (e.g., chassis lubrication, wheel alignment)
Common Symptoms of Steering & Suspension Problems
-
Car pulls to one side while driving
-
Uneven tire wear
-
Excessive noise, vibration, or bouncing
-
Loss of steering control or instability
If you experience any of these issues, it’s important to have your vehicle inspected as soon as possible.

-
Wheel alignment (also called tracking or breaking alignment) is a routine vehicle maintenance procedure where the angles of the wheels are adjusted to match the car manufacturer’s specifications.
-
The main purpose of wheel alignment is:
-
To reduce uneven tire wear
-
To improve vehicle handling and stability
-
To ensure the vehicle travels straight without pulling to one side.
-
-
Alignment angles are typically measured and adjusted in three key ways:
-
Camber – the inward or outward tilt of the wheels when viewed from the front of the car.
-
Toe – the direction the wheels point relative to the centerline of the vehicle.
-
Caster – the angle of the steering axis when viewed from the side of the vehicle.
-
-
In motorsport or off-road driving, these angles may be intentionally altered beyond factory settings to improve performance for specific conditions (e.g., better cornering grip or stability on rough terrain).
Proper alignment not only improves safety and handling, but also extends tire life and can help with fuel efficiency.
Wheel alignment sometimes referred to as breaking, or tracking is part of standard automobile maintenance that consists of adjusting the angles of wheels to the car manufacturer specifications. The purpose of these adjustments is to reduce tire wear and to ensure that vehicle travel is straight and true (without “pulling” to one side). Alignment angles can also be altered beyond the maker’s specifications to obtain a specific handling characteristic. Motorsport and off-road applications may call for angles to be adjusted well beyond normal, for a variety of reasons.
Signs of a bad wheel alignment
- The vehicle pulls to one side.
- The steering wheel does not return to center.
- The steering wheel is off-center.
- Excessive tire wear in certain spots.
- Loose steering.
