Title: Common Problems Associated With the Suspension System of Every Car


1
Common Problems Associated With the Suspension
System of Every Car
2
The suspension being an intricate part of any car
demands undivided attention from the owners as
suspension issues are a common phenomenon faced
by every car.
3
If the suspension system malfunctions, then it
hampers the car's efficiency also the comfort
level drastically reduces.
4
Here are the symptoms exhibited by a
malfunctioning suspension system in every car.
5
Car pulls to one side
6
When the suspension malfunctions, the car starts
to drift or pull to one side while driving which
means the shock absorbers are unable to keep the
vehicle stable.
7
Consequently, poor alignment means uneven tire
wear and the wheels need to be pointed in the
right direction aligned for toe-in, camber and
caster.
8
However, getting the wheel aligned will won't fix
the damaged springs, controls arms or other parts
that affect alignment and you might need to
replace the suspension system.
9
Car nosedives
10
Whenever the suspension has worn out then, the
first sign a driver will notice is when he stops
the car suddenly there is high probability car
body will nosedive.
11
Moreover, this affects the ability to stop the
car abruptly as a failed suspension can increase
the stop time by up to 20 percent.
12
Furthermore, the worn out shock absorbers can't
keep the tires planted on the road because once
the fluid in the shocks starts to leak, the
bouncing increases performance diminishes.
13
Car is visibly lower on one side
14
While driving or in idle position when the car
is on level ground and you notice that one corner
sits lower than the others then it is a sign of a
damaged spring.
15
It is accompanied by clunking noise when going
over bumps and cornering could be compromised
because a damaged spring can't support the weight.
16
The issue is caused due to a blown shock which
causes an over compression of the spring and
lowers the sitting height.
17
Difficulty in handling
18
Sometimes while driving slowly, you might feel
the steering is especially difficult and it might
be related to suspension malfunctioning.
19
It might be caused due to factors like a low
power steering fluid, worn or loose power
steering belt, faulty power steering pump, worn
control arm bushings and leaking power steering
rack.
20
However, it is better to look after the
suspension as it is seen most of the times the
problem occurs due to a malfunctioning suspension.
21
Conclusion
22
Whenever you come across these issues in your
car, then it is a clear indication that the
suspension system in your car has failed.
23
As the suspension system is a vital part of your
car, you must immediately take your car to an
automotive repair shop to replace the suspension
or fix it.
