What are the signs of suspension problems in a car?
Common signs include excessive bouncing over bumps, a sagging corner of the car, uneven tyre wear, poor handling, and clunking noises from the wheels. You might also notice the car pulling to one side or a rougher ride than usual. These issues often point to worn shocks, struts, or bushings that need replacing. Ignoring suspension problems can lead to safety concerns and more expensive repairs down the track.
Can bad suspension affect steering?
Yes, suspension issues can directly affect how your car steers. Worn or damaged components can cause the vehicle to feel loose or unstable while turning, reduce your ability to keep the car in a straight line, or cause delays in steering response. In some cases, alignment may also be thrown off, affecting tyre wear and fuel efficiency. It’s important to have both systems inspected together if you’re noticing steering changes.
How often should suspension components be replaced?
There’s no universal timeline, as suspension wear depends heavily on driving habits, road conditions, and vehicle type. However, shocks and struts typically last between 70,000 to 100,000 km. Bushings and ball joints may last longer but are still subject to wear over time. If you notice symptoms or are coming up on a high-mileage service, it’s wise to have your suspension checked by a qualified mechanic.
