Vehicle Suspension - TELL TALE SIGNS SOMETHING IS WRONG.

One of the main functions of your vehicle's suspension is to provide a smooth, comfortable ride even when you're on a bumpiest of roads. More importantly your vehicle suspension's main role is to give the maximum opportunity for all four tyres to remain in contact with the road, so that when needed, your braking, steering and driving systems are safe, effective and responsive when you need them most.

Your vehicle's suspension is very complex with many components working hand in hand including, shock absorbers, springs, ball joints, tie rod ends and suspension bushes. These must be kept in good condition to ensure your safety. If any parts of the suspension system are worn or damaged your safety may be at risk.
