The most obvious benefit of a well-functioning steering and suspension system is a smooth ride. The suspension system absorbs a lot of the shock and bumps of the road. Another benefit that we often take for granted is that steering and suspension keep the car more balanced and in control. It is important to maintain your vehicle’s steering and suspension to ensure stability and to provide optimum driver control, as well as minimum wear of system components. Poor suspension increases the tear and wear of other vehicle systems. That most often happens to your tires and breaks. Healthy steering and suspicion promotes even and balanced tire and brake wear and keeps you safe.
