Steering and Suspension in Tempe, AZ

Your vehicle's steering and suspension work together every second you're behind the wheel, and when something wears out, you feel it before you see it. Drivers across Tempe, AZ , and surrounding communities count on Hardy Vehicle Designs when a car pulls to one side, bounces over bumps, or just doesn't feel right. Our full-service auto repair shop at 1938 E Broadway Rd inspects, repairs, and aligns both systems.

How Your Steering System Works

Your steering system translates the turn of the wheel into the direction your tires point. Most vehicles use a rack-and-pinion setup, where the steering wheel turns a gear that moves the steering rack, which pushes and pulls the tie rods connected to your wheels. Power steering, whether hydraulic or electric, reduces the effort needed. When the system is worn, you may notice looseness or vibration.

How Your Suspension System Works

Your suspension connects your wheels to the vehicle, absorbing bumps and keeping your tires planted on the road. Springs support the vehicle's weight, shocks and struts control how the springs bounce, and control arms, ball joints, and bushings hold everything in position while allowing the wheels to move. Worn parts affect ride comfort, braking stability, and tire life.

For suspension and steering problems, watch for a vehicle that pulls or drifts to one side, uneven tire wear, a bouncy ride, dips and dives when braking, or clunking, knocking, or creaking over bumps. Difficulty steering is another warning sign. Catching any of these problems early protects your tires and related components.
