Our Suspension Inspection Process
When you bring your vehicle to our auto repair shop for a suspension inspection, we personally ensure that every detail is meticulously checked. We start by examining the steering and suspension system for any visible signs of wear or damage. This includes a close inspection of the shocks, struts, and control arms, as these are critical components for a smooth ride.
Next, we check for uneven tire wear and wheel alignment issues, which can indicate underlying problems. A vibrating steering wheel or difficulty steering can also signal problems within the suspension system, so we pay special attention to these warning signs. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we assess the condition of the ball joints, sway bar, and tire rods to ensure everything is in top shape.
If we find any suspension problems, we discuss the necessary repairs with you, ensuring you understand the importance of addressing these issues promptly. Our goal is to keep your vehicle's suspension system well maintained, preventing costly repairs in the future and ensuring you enjoy a smooth and safe ride on the road. Trust us to provide thorough diagnostics and expert care for your suspension repair needs.

Customer Reviews
"I had an excellent experience at Southwest Auto. It’s been very hard to find a mechanic to work on my old Saab, so I found Jon. He did a thorough diagnostic, emailed me the results, and had me approve the work. It took some time to source parts, but Jon Came through. My car not only made the 200+ mile ride home, it’s running great. Very thankful his shop was recommended."
David Dalrymple
"I highly recommend Southwest auto for your vehicle repair. Recently, they handled my transmission leak on a 3500 Mercedes Diesel Sprinter Van/Camper. They were efficient, fairly priced, and Cory at the front desk was very communicative during the repair process. They handled the warrantee coverage for me and got me back on the road quickly. I cannot say enough how pleased I was with the service they provided."

Frequently Asked Questions

How Often Should Your Car Get Regular Suspension Maintenance?
You'll want to have your vehicle's suspension system inspected with every oil service. However, if you frequently drive on rough roads or notice any warning signs such as a vibrating steering wheel, uneven tire wear, or your car is pulling to one side, you'll want to have the suspension system checked sooner. Regular maintenance helps prevent costly repairs, maintains your vehicle's performance, and ensures a comfortable ride.

What Happens If I Don't Fix My Suspension?
A poorly maintained suspension system can cause uneven tire wear, misaligned wheels, and a vibrating steering wheel, making it difficult to maintain control of your vehicle. This can result in a rough ride, increased stopping distances, and even accidents. Additionally, ignoring suspension issues can damage other suspension components, such as shocks, struts, and control arms, and more.
