Signs Your Truck Suspension Needs Repair

Suspension issues may start small, but they can quickly wear down other components and put safety at risk. Look out for these signs that your truck may need suspension work:



  • Sagging on one side
  • Excessive bouncing or swaying
  • Loud clunks or creaks over bumps
  • Uneven or premature tire wear
  • Steering instability or poor alignment
  • Difficulty maintaining traction under load
  • Visible damage to shocks, springs, or mounts

Even minor suspension problems can affect braking, handling, and fuel efficiency. Our technicians use proven inspection methods and heavy-duty tools to identify the root of the problem and get it resolved correctly.
