Suspension

If you suspect that your car’s suspension is experiencing issues, it is essential to have Hillwood Autos inspect it promptly. The suspension plays a critical role in maintaining your vehicle’s stability, handling, and comfort, and any problems with it can lead to safety risks and reduced driving performance. Here are some signs that indicate your car’s suspension may require inspection by Hillwood Autos:

1. Uneven or Excessive Tyre Wear: If you notice uneven wear patterns on your tyres, it could be a sign of suspension misalignment or worn-out components. Hillwood Autos can inspect the suspension to identify the cause and recommend the appropriate repairs.
2. Bumpy or Rough Ride: If your car feels excessively bumpy or rough on the road, it could indicate worn-out shocks or struts. Our skilled technicians can check these components for signs of leakage or wear and suggest replacements if necessary.
3. Drifting or Pulling: If your car drifts or pulls to one side while driving, it may be due to suspension issues. Hillwood Autos can perform a comprehensive inspection to pinpoint the cause and make the necessary adjustments or repairs.
4. Excessive Noise: Unusual clunking, knocking, or creaking sounds when driving over bumps can indicate problems with the suspension components. We can diagnose the source of the noise and provide appropriate solutions.
5. Difficulty in Steering: If you experience difficulty in steering or the steering wheel feels loose, it could be a sign of suspension problems. Hillwood Autos can assess the steering system and suspension to identify and resolve the issue.
6. Nose Diving or Squatting During Braking or Acceleration: If your car’s front end dives excessively when braking or the rear end squats during acceleration, it may indicate worn-out shocks or struts. Hillwood Autos can check and replace these components if needed.
7. Fluid Leaks: If you notice fluid leaks near the wheels or under the car, it could be a sign of a leaking shock absorber. Our team can inspect the suspension and address any leaks.
8. Excessive Bouncing: If your car bounces excessively after hitting a bump or a pothole, it may be a sign of worn-out suspension components. We can inspect and replace any damaged parts.
