Suspension & Steering
Is Your Vehicle Not Driving the Way It Used to When New?
Is it harder to steer or turn? Does it seem to be extra springy when you drive over bumps? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, it’s time to call your YAN Motors.Our experienced technicians can quickly diagnose any problems with your steering, shocks, struts, sway bars, bushings, and anything else suspension related. We will check all mounting hardware and look for any uneven tire wear to accurately assess what’s going on. If it’s something simple like tightening a bolt or balancing your wheels, we’ll tell you.
The steering and suspension systems are important for both your safety and comfort when driving as they ensure a smooth ride as your car travels over bumpy roads. The two systems are usually talked about together as they are directly related to each other. The steering and suspension systems of a vehicle work together to provide a smooth and safe ride for the driver and passengers. It supports the vehicle’s weight and absorbs shocks from the road surface. The steering system lets the driver turn the wheels in response to input.

The suspension system in your car consists of several components, including the chassis, which holds the cab of the car. Other important parts are the springs that support the vehicle weight, absorb and reduce excess energy from road shocks and, of course, the shock absorbers and struts. Your car’s suspension must be in good working condition as worn components may reduce driving stability and control. Without repairing or replacing a worn suspension, other components could wear at an accelerated pace. Your suspension and shock absorbers are important for a number of reasons as they:
- Help keep your tyres in constant contact with the road
- Control the movement of your springs and suspension
- Promote even and balanced tyre and brake wear
- Provide efficient handling and braking
- Maintain wheel alignment
- Control vehicle bounce, roll, sway, drive, and acceleration squatting
There are three times when you should get your steering and suspension systems inspected.
Firstly, at the following times:
- Every 50,000 miles (approximately 80,000 km).
- As part of your annual service or any time your car is in for routine service and the steering and suspension systems are accessible.
- When your tyres are replaced.
- When your brakes are serviced.
- When your oil and filters are changed.
Secondly, if you are involved in an accident where your front wheels or suspension are damaged, your entire steering and suspension systems should be checked for damage. Additionally, you should get your systems inspected if you notice any difference in your suspension or steering after any accident.
Lastly, if you notice any of the symptoms listed in the next section.
CUSTOMER REVIEWS
This place is great! My experience was nothing but pleasant. They not just did the typical "telling you" what needs repairs, but took me out to the garage and actually showed me the issue with my car. Then found an alternative repair to fix the issue that was more affordable and in my budget. The mechanic was knowledgeable and fixed up my car and the problem was completely gone! They even dropped me off at work while my car was being repaired so I didn't have to walk. I HIGHLY recommend this place!
I have had work done on my car here several times. The staff has always been friendly, they have given me good options, and the price is reasonable. I would recommend them.
I have taken my car into these guys multiple times for various reasons. They always run the diagnostic and tell me whats wrong, I have never felt like they are trying to sell me something my car doesn't need.
Amazing customer service, quick response time, charged significantly less than what other companies estimated, and best of all I didn’t have to leave work early! Will never use any other company! They were awesome.
