Steering & Suspension

Steering &
Suspension

Your steering system and suspension system are two separate systems that work in tandem to keep your car under control.

suspension-system
The suspension system supports the weight of your vehicle, provides a smooth ride and creates stable road control, drivability and handling.

Steering-wheel
The steering system provides directional control of your car. In a way, your steering system selects the direction of the suspension system and the car simply follows along as it is riding atop of the suspension system.

Why should I have my steering & suspension inspected?

Normal driving and conditions create wear and tear on your suspension and steering systems. All of the components that make up those systems such as struts, shocks, control arm bushings, ball joints, coil springs and steering linkage will wear and weaken over time. This wear creates instability in road handling, excessive tire wear, and loss of ride comfort, steering control and drivability.

Having your steering and suspension systems examined by a trusted mechanic at KHN Services will alert you to problems before they become a major issue that leaves you stranded on the side of the road.
