Your Suspension System Matters
Your vehicle's suspension system does much more than provide a comfortable ride. Shocks, struts, springs and other components work together with the steering and tires to help maintain proper vehicle control, ride quality and handling.
Over time, normal driving, potholes, rough roads and heavy loads can take a toll on suspension components. Worn components can also contribute to uneven tire wear and changes in how your vehicle handles.
Purcell Tire & Service can inspect your suspension system and help determine what service may be needed.

What Can Cause Suspension Wear?
Everyday Driving
Normal mileage and repeated road impacts gradually wear suspension components.
Potholes & Rough Roads
Frequent hauling or carrying heavy loads can increase stress on suspension components.
Heavy Loads
When your wheels are properly aligned, your vehicle rolls more efficiently, reducing unnecessary rolling resistance.
Off-Road Driving
Rough terrain and uneven surfaces can accelerate component wear.
