THE IMPORTANCE OF A HEALTHY SUSPENSION SYSTEM
One of the most important systems in any vehicle, the suspension system is responsible for keeping the car in control by maximising friction between the tyres and the road, providing steering stability and comfortable handling, and absorbing/reducing excess energy from shocks generated by bumps and uneven surfaces in the road.
To ensure your suspension system is working efficiently, regular servicing is essential, as is repairing or replacing suspension components immediately if they become worn or damaged.
The benefits of ensuring your suspension system is in excellent working condition include:
- Maintaining proper wheel alignment
- Providing consistent braking and handling
- Keeping the tyres in contact with the road
- Controlling spring and suspension movement
- Reducing wear and tear on other vehicle systems
SUSPENSION SYSTEMS AND STEERING STABILITY
Steering stability is one of the most important benefits of a maintaining a healthy suspension system. If roads were flat this wouldn’t be a problem, but as our roads are full of irregularities, a well-maintained suspension system is a necessity to absorb the shock of the bumps and imperfections in the road surface that would otherwise affect steering stability.
While many steering issues are caused by problems relating to the suspension, your suspension system may not be the reason why you’re experiencing steering problems. Common steering problems also include:
- A leaking power steering pump or rack – Leaking steering fluid can result in all sorts of problems, including difficulty turning the steering wheel.
- Worn out steering components – This can cause the car to veer to one side when steering. It can also be caused by tyres with different tread wear or inflation.
