Reliable Suspension Repairs
Your suspension does more than just cushion your ride—it keeps your tyres in contact with the road, ensures safe handling, and helps absorb shocks from potholes or uneven surfaces. A worn suspension can impact braking, steering, tyre wear, and overall safety. We service and replace shocks, struts, bushings, and steering components, using quality parts that are built to last. No guesswork, just proper fixes that restore how your car should feel.
- Shock absorber and strut replacements
- Steering rack and component repairs
- Improved comfort, control and handling

A good suspension system doesn’t just improve your drive—it protects the rest of your vehicle too. If your car feels loose, bouncy, or unstable, it’s worth getting it checked out. We’re here to help with honest advice and expert repairs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs of suspension problems in a car?
Common signs of suspension problems include a rough or bouncy ride, clunking or knocking sounds over bumps, uneven tyre wear, and the car pulling to one side. You may also notice the car dipping when braking or leaning too much when turning corners. These issues can indicate worn shock absorbers, struts, or bushings, and should be checked by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
How often should car suspension be checked?
It’s a good idea to have your suspension checked at least once a year or during regular services, especially if you drive on rough roads or carry heavy loads. While suspension components don’t need replacing as frequently as things like brake pads, they can wear out over time and affect safety. Always get your suspension inspected if you notice changes in ride comfort or handling.
Is it safe to drive with a bad suspension?
Driving with a faulty suspension isn’t recommended. It can reduce your ability to control the vehicle, especially when braking or cornering, and can cause further damage to tyres, steering components, and even the chassis. A compromised suspension can also increase stopping distance, which is dangerous in emergencies.
