Suspension And Steering Reno NV
Suspension
Many people underestimate how important their car’s suspension system really is. The suspension in your vehicle is not just there to make your ride less bumpy like some people believe – it is a major part of the safety of your vehicle and how well it stops and handles on the road. The suspension system affects your vehicle’s steering, braking power, and stability – so it’s important to have these functions inspected regularly and to replace parts when they become worn – and dangerous!

Steering
There is a lot going into the steering and suspension of your car and as such, there are many forces and angles that have to acted upon and maintained. If you notice any problems in the way your car steers or you feel any body or steering wheel vibrations, you should have it checked out by a car mechanic as soon as possible.
It may be time to visit American Auto Air and Repair if your steering wheel is doing any of the following:
It is getting more difficult to turn. This may or may not happen suddenly or get worse over time.
It takes much more strength to turn, especially when you are trying to park.
It is very easy to move and feels sloppy. It creates an uneasy feeling because it seems you have no control of your car.
It takes a lot of effort to turn. In fact, at low speeds you can hardly turn it.
As you are driving, you notice that you must constantly correct the direction of the car by turning the steering wheel, with the problem increasing at higher speeds.
Should your vehicle need work, from a simple tune up to an engine exchange, American Auto Air and Repair Technicians can handle the job.
