Steering & Suspension

Why is Steering and Suspension Important? – Learn About the Role They Play in Your Vehicle’s Safety

Suspension and steering systems are two different systems that work together to keep your automobile in control. The suspension system maintains your vehicle’s weight, gives a smooth ride, and ensures that you have steady road control, drivability, and handling.

Your car’s directional control is provided by the steering system. In a sense, your steering system directs the suspension system’s orientation, and the automobile just follows along as it rides on top of it.

Suspension and steering systems are subjected to wear and tear under normal driving circumstances. Struts, shocks, control arm bushings, ball joints, coil springs, and steering linkage are just some of the steering and suspension components that wear out and deteriorate with time. Instability in road handling, excessive tire wear, and a loss of ride comfort, steering control, and drivability result from this wear.

Having your steering and suspension systems inspected by an Automotion Service and Repair certified technician will detect issues before they turn into a severe problem that leaves you stranded on the side of the road.

As you reach important milestones, your steering and suspension system should be inspected on a regular basis. Your steering and suspension systems, like all other components on your automobile, require routine maintenance.

Have your steering and suspension systems inspected by a professional by booking an appointment with Automotion Service and Repair if your car exhibits any of the following symptoms:

  • Unusual vibration at any speed limit
  • Steering angle is altered
  • Crooked tire wear
  • Car drifts strangely when you turn the wheel
  • Strange noise in your front tire when going over bumps and portholes.
  • Unusual noise when turning the wheel.
  • Peculiar leakage of fluid at the front end of your vehicle

A comprehensive suspension system examination is required if there is excessive bouncing or swaying over bumps, as well as sporadic loss of control when driving and braking. The steering system should be evaluated and corrected if it is shaky, unstable, off-center, or stiff.

Uneven tire wear can indicate a suspension or steering problem, however it might simply indicate alignment concerns. Have you lately encountered a pothole? Steering and suspension components might be damaged by potholes.

Suspension components that are worn diminish the vehicle’s stability and the driver’s control. Suspension system components unite to form a single functional unit, therefore untreated suspension faults can lead to increased wear on other suspension components, requiring repairs that are more expensive.

Your vehicle’s ability to operate and your safety depend on the steering and suspension system. As a result, it must be in top operating order to ensure the longevity of your vehicle.

We offer as wide range of services when it comes to steering and suspension which include the following:

  1. Replacement of the Inner and outer Tie rod Steering that is difficult, inconsistent, or unexpected may indicate that your tie rods—inner, outer, or both—need to be changed. Excessive and uneven tyre wear is one sign that your tie rods are loose. Another indicator is vibrations and clunking noises coming from the front of your car. Your inner and outer tie rods should be examined and perhaps replaced by a member of our service team if your steering pulls or refuses to return to center.
  2. Replacement of Shock absorbers When one shock absorber has to be changed, the other shock absorber on the same axle (front or rear) must also be replaced to guarantee that both shocks are in good operating order. Because a new shock hasn’t had any internal wear, combining it with an older unit would likely result in unequal damping characteristics throughout the axle, causing the new shock to overcompensate, placing it at danger of damage and premature wear. For appropriate replacement of shock absorbers contact Automotion Service and Repair.
  3. Replacement of Ball Joints A damaged ball joint might be the source of a strange clunking noise or steering drift. And if they’re worn out, they’ll have a significant impact on your steering and suspension. If a ball joint breaks altogether, the wheel may fall off the automobile in a spectacular manner. This is a frightening concept. Book an appointment with Automotion if you need your ball joints replaced.
  4. Intensive inspection of the Suspension system The springs, shocks, and struts of your car’s suspension keep your tires on the road. When you’re making a sudden turn, driving down a steep slope, driving on bumpy roads, or stopping to escape an accident, this is a wonderful thing. When your suspension is worn, though, it can cause additional wear on other elements of your car, such as your tyres. Allow us to carefully inspect your suspension system and point out any issue and recommend service routine for your vehicle.

The steering and suspension system  aids drivers in maintaining complete control of their automobiles. The suspension system transforms the forward energy generated by road bumps into vertical energy that moves up into the vehicle frame. Components of the suspension system, like coil spring and shock absorbers, assist to reduce the impact of this road force. While particular steering and suspension parts may differ, stress exerted under typical driving circumstances will cause all components to degrade with time. Schedule an appointment with Automotion Service and Repair in Incline Village, NV and let us help you keep your steering and suspension system in a perfect condition.

Our Customer Reviews

I had great service by both Shauna and the other gentleman. I was looking to buy a used car with a lot of mileage and year. I can’t remember the gentleman’s name but he really advocated for me during the discussion with the seller and advised me honestly in a really helpful manner. If you are young or of modest means it’s worth the checkup to avoid major issues, they saved me at least 1.5k and squeezed me in the same day

Sana Rahmani Sep 9, 2025

I came in for a wheel alignment. There was a miscommunication over the phone around price. Jason, the manager, honored the much lower price I was quoted over the phone. It’s that’s kind of gesture that will bring me back to this shop. All around they were communicative, honest, transparent, and friendly. 5 stars.

Maxim Dobrushin Sep 9, 2025

It was a nice looking shop with many very nice antique cars in the lot. Jason was pleasant, professional and responsive on the phone. However, I had made an appointment to have a key smith make a key for my car, and drove an hour each way to get to the shop to get there. And the key smith didn’t show up. So I was disappointed at driving nearly 110 miles and wasting my time for this. On the other hand, I wouldn’t hesitate to go back and have something done at the shop that they self-performed because they were as decent as they could be about the situation. They had a nice coffee machine for customers that I appreciated, too, and a good place to hang out and work while you wait if you need that. Nice people.

Biviano Vasquez Nov 11, 2019

Excellent service. Definitely 10/10. The service technician did a fantastic job at servicing and repairing my Bentley. Usually I would have to send my car to the Bentley dealership in San Francisco for repair and servicing. Automation provided much better service and communication than the Bentley dealership. Jason was an extremely effective customer service representative. Highest recommendation.

Automotion is the best repair shop in Reno, they always do the job right the first time.

clifford candevan Apr 4, 2023

I took my car in to have the suspension checked because I was staying to hear some squeaking when I drove over bumps and rough road. After they test drove it, they said that the springs and struts tested normally, so they lubricated them and said that all should be good in a couple of days once the lube worked into the system. And they're were right! Their integrity saved me hundreds of dollars when they could have opted to replace parts that were still good. That's how a company builds trust with us customers.

Wally Murray (luvinthislife) Dec 12, 2024

Absolutely lovely establishment, so many great things about this place, between the excellent service, the great bathrooms and the wonderful dogs to greet you and pet, I absolutely recommend coming here for any car needs, especially who have a Mercedes sprinter. The staff is super kind of knowledgeable and are willing to work with you if you have special needs for your vehicle like we have with ours. They will even put your lug nuts on in a certain order if you ask them to. Very detail oriented, very professional absolutely recommend coming here for everything you need!!
