SUSPENSION REPAIR FAQ
Questions Pontiac drivers ask
How do I know whether I need shocks or struts?
Excessive bouncing, leaking components, or a change in handling can be signs of wear. We inspect your vehicle before recommending replacement; a noise alone does not identify the faulty part.
What causes clunking when I go over bumps?
Possible causes include worn links, bushings, joints, or mounts. We check the concern and explain which components need attention.
How much does suspension repair cost?
The price depends on your vehicle and the parts involved. Call with your year, make, model, and symptoms. After inspecting the concern, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve repairs.
Will my vehicle need an alignment after suspension work?
Some suspension and steering repairs affect wheel alignment. Ask us what follow-up your particular repair requires before the work begins.
How long does suspension repair take?
Timing depends on the diagnosis, repair scope, parts availability, and schedule. Call for current availability; we can discuss timing once the needed work is understood.
Can I see what needs to be repaired?
Yes. We explain what we find and can show you the worn parts so you understand the recommendation.
