Jerome Shocks & Struts

Your car’s suspension is more than just a comfort feature; it’s essential for safety and control on the road. It cushions you from bumps and dips, keeps your tires firmly planted for better handling, and ensures reliable braking.

But like any mechanical system, your suspension wears down over time. Shocks, struts, and other parts degrade, leading to a rougher ride, less responsive steering, and longer stopping distances.

Master AutoTech understands the unique demands of driving in Jerome. Our local technicians know the roads, the challenges, and the importance of a well-maintained suspension system. We’ll thoroughly inspect your car, pinpoint any wear or damage, and provide expert repairs to get your ride back to its smooth, safe best.

Don’t wait for a rough ride to alert you to suspension problems. Regular maintenance is key to avoiding unexpected issues and enjoying a consistently comfortable and secure driving experience, wherever your Jerome adventures take you.

The flexible “hips” of your suspension, these allow your wheels to move freely while staying aligned. Regular checks for looseness or wear are essential.

These sturdy “arms” connect wheels to the body, ensuring stability and alignment. Inspect for bent or worn parts regularly.

These rubber cushions dampen noise and vibration for a smoother ride. Keep an eye out for wear and tear.

These “heavy lifters” support your vehicle’s weight and absorb shocks. If your car sags or feels unstable, have your springs checked.

Working with springs, shocks control movement and prevent bouncing. Listen for unusual noises and watch for leaks.

These all-in-one units combine shock and spring functions. Be alert for the same signs of wear as with shocks and springs.

We’ll thoroughly inspect your system, identifying any worn or damaged parts and recommending the necessary fixes to keep your ride smooth, safe, and comfortable. Don’t wait for a bumpy ride to alert you – regular maintenance is key to a trouble-free driving experience.

Your car’s suspension system is designed for durability, but it’s not invincible. The average lifespan of suspension components is around 50,000 miles, but several factors can accelerate wear and tear, leading to earlier repairs:

Aggressive driving, frequent hard braking, and speeding over bumps put extra strain on the system.

Potholes, rough terrain, and extreme weather conditions can all take their toll.

Consistently carrying heavy loads or towing can wear down components faster.

Neglecting regular inspections and maintenance can lead to unnoticed problems worsening over time.

Your suspension system works tirelessly to protect you from the harsh realities of the road. But even the toughest suspension can show signs of wear and tear. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to a cascade of problems, affecting your safety and driving experience.

Here’s what your suspension might be trying to tell you:

Uneven tire wear can be a clue that your alignment is off or that suspension components are worn.

A vibrating steering wheel or a bumpy ride could mean worn shocks, loose steering parts, or unbalanced tires.

Rattling or clunking sounds often signal loose or damaged parts in your suspension.

If your car pulls to one side, it could be due to tire pressure, alignment, or worn suspension components.

Bottoming out over potholes or speed bumps is a red flag for worn shocks or struts.

If your car keeps bouncing after a bump, it’s another sign of worn shocks or struts.

Does your car lurch forward when braking or squat back when accelerating? This could mean trouble with your shocks, springs, or other suspension parts.

Oil leaking from your suspension components indicates a serious problem that requires immediate attention.
