Suspension Repair FAQ
Do I need an alignment after suspension work?
Yes—any time steering or suspension parts are replaced, an alignment protects your tires and restores proper handling.
How long do shocks and struts last?
Typically 80,000–120,000 km, sooner with heavy loads, rough roads, or performance driving. We inspect and measure to confirm.
Can worn bushings cause tire wear and noise?
Absolutely. Cracked or loose bushings allow excess movement, leading to clunks, vibration, and uneven tire wear.
My car feels floaty but I don’t hear noises. What’s wrong?
Likely weak shocks/struts or tired springs. We’ll road-test and perform a bounce and leak check, then provide options.
Do you service lifted/lowered vehicles?
Yes. We service stock, lifted, and lowered setups and provide custom alignment specs for street, off-road, and track use.
Does your car dip or rock when you go over bumps or drift around corners even at low speeds?
If you answered yes, it may be time to replace your vehicle’s shocks or struts.
Dales Auto Service has the car suspension know-how to diagnose and repair any problem and get you back on the road with a smooth ride.
If you count drive time as an upper body workout because your car wants to turn when you want to go straight, you may have steering system problems.
We have the latest diagnostic equipment and our technicians will determine the cause of your steering problems.
When it comes to absorbing the shocks of the road, you’d think the shock absorbers would take care of everything.
Actually, coil or leaf springs handle the abuse of the road. Your shock absorbers handle the abuse caused by the rebound of the springs.
They both work together to keep your vehicle under control.

Potholes and rough road surfaces don’t just make for a bad ride, they can affect the alignment of your wheels.
Misaligned wheels can cause a host of problems, including uneven tire wear.
Proper wheel alignment helps your tires last longer, improves gas mileage, and provides safer handling.
