Safer, Smoother Driving
Expert Diagnosis & Repair
Comfort & Control on Every Drive
Your suspension absorbs shocks from the road while the steering system ensures you stay in control. Together, they make driving comfortable, stable and safe. Over time, components like springs, struts and steering racks naturally wear out, leading to poor handling, uneven tyre wear and reduced braking performance. Addressing these issues early not only restores ride quality but also helps prevent costly damage to tyres and other parts. Professional repairs ensure your car feels steady, responsive and enjoyable to drive again. Whether you’re commuting across Canberra or taking longer trips, well-maintained steering and suspension systems keep you and your passengers safe. Don’t wait for the ride to get rougher — book your service today and experience the difference.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should steering and suspension be checked?
It’s recommended to have these systems inspected at least once a year or every 20,000 kilometres. However, if you drive on rough roads, tow heavy loads or notice changes in handling, more frequent checks are advised. Regular inspections help catch problems early and maintain safety.
How do I know if my steering needs repairs?
If the steering wheel feels loose, pulls to one side, or makes squeaking or grinding noises, it’s a clear indicator of a problem. Difficulty turning or vibration through the wheel is also a sign that the steering system requires professional attention.
Is it safe to drive with bad suspension or steering issues?
Driving with worn suspension or faulty steering can be unsafe. It reduces your ability to brake effectively, maintain traction, and control the car in emergencies. Continuing to drive in this condition risks accidents and can cause additional wear to tyres and other components. Prompt repairs are the safest option.
