Subaru Suspension Service FAQ
1) What are the most common Subaru suspension parts to wear out?
Struts/shocks, control arm bushings, sway bar links, ball joints, and tie-rods. White Rock’s mix of city streets and coastal roads accelerates wear; we inspect all related components during your visit.
2) Do I need an alignment after replacing suspension parts?
Yes. Anytime you change tie-rods, control arms, struts, or ride height, a 4-wheel alignment is essential to protect tires and restore factory handling.
3) OEM vs aftermarket—what’s best?
It depends on goals and budget. We’ll recommend OEM for factory feel and quality aftermarket (e.g., KYB/Bilstein/Moog) for durability or performance. All options include a clear warranty.
4) Can I drive with a clunking noise?
It’s risky. A failing joint or loose component can worsen quickly and affect safety. Book a quick inspection to prevent further damage.
5) Do you only work on Subaru?
No—Subaru is a specialty, but we service all makes and models. If you need auto repair and service near you in White Rock, we’ve got you covered.
