Signs of a suspension or steering problem
- Uneven tire wear, pulling to one side, or noise and vibration while cornering.1
- Steering that feels sluggish, jerky or stiff, which dirty or low power steering fluid can cause.2
- A buzzing noise when you turn the wheel at low speed, which can mean low power steering fluid.2
- The vehicle pulling after you hit a pothole, which can knock the alignment out.3
Read your tires
Tire wear tells part of the story:4
- Wear on both outer edges points to underinflation.
- Wear down the center points to overinflation.
- Wear on one side points to misalignment.
Why it is worth fixing
Misaligned wheels wear tires out early and strain the steering and suspension.5 When the alignment is off, control arms, ball joints and bushings work harder and wear out early.6 In extreme cases, power steering fluid that is low or dirty can let the pump overheat and fail.2
The Car Care Council recommends checking the steering and suspension once a year.1 Because tires show the first signs, the same visit is a good time to look at the tires and the brakes.
