Suspension & Steering Service

Your suspension and steering systems work together to provide a smooth ride, precise handling, and safe control of your vehicle. Worn components can cause poor handling, excessive tire wear, and even dangerous driving conditions.

At Onsite Automotive Services, we provide complete suspension and steering diagnosis and repair. Our ASE-certified technicians identify worn components and make repairs that restore safe, comfortable driving.

Our Suspension & Steering Services:

Shocks & Struts

Worn shocks and struts cause bouncy rides, poor handling, and increased stopping distances. We inspect and replace these components to restore ride comfort and control.

Ball Joints

Ball joints connect the steering knuckle to the control arms. Worn ball joints cause clunking noises, loose steering, and uneven tire wear.

Tie Rods

Tie rods connect the steering rack to the wheels. Worn tie rods cause loose steering, wandering, and alignment problems.

Control Arms & Bushings

Control arms locate the wheels and allow suspension travel. Worn bushings cause clunking, vibration, and poor handling.

Power Steering Service

Power steering systems require periodic fluid service. We also diagnose and repair pumps, racks, and hoses.

Wheel Bearings

Wheel bearings allow smooth wheel rotation. Worn bearings cause humming or growling noises that change with speed.
