Questions & Answers

Steering & Suspension FAQs

When should suspension parts be inspected?

Is a wheel alignment necessary after repairs?

Can worn suspension fail a VA safety inspection?

Have your steering and suspension checked whenever you notice pulling, unusual noises over bumps, uneven tire wear, or during routine oil changes and state inspection prep.

Yes. Replacing components like tie rods, control arms, or struts changes wheel angles. A wheel alignment preserves proper handling and prevents early tire wear.
