Why this matters

Suspension does more than smooth the ride—it keeps tires in contact with the road so brakes and steering can do their jobs. Worn components lengthen stopping distances and are inspected during an Ontario safety inspection.

Suspension Repair — questions we hear often

Do suspension parts have to be replaced in pairs?

Struts and springs usually should be, so the vehicle sits and handles evenly. Links and bushings can often be done individually.

Will worn suspension fail a safety inspection?

Excessive play in ball joints, tie rods or a broken spring will not meet Ontario's requirements. We measure play as part of the inspection.

Do I need an alignment afterwards?

In most cases yes—replacing steering or suspension parts changes the geometry.
