Suspension Repairs in Preston: Signs Your Car Needs Attention

Your car’s suspension system does more than keep the ride comfortable—it’s key for safety, handling, and tyre wear. At Preston Autofix, we specialise in suspension repairs and replacements across Preston, ensuring your car stays stable and safe on the road.

⚠️ Signs of Suspension Problems

If you notice any of these issues, it’s time to book a check-up:

  • Bumpy or uncomfortable ride – every pothole feels exaggerated.

  • Pulling to one side – car doesn’t stay straight, even on level roads.

  • Uneven tyre wear – suspension issues cause tyres to wear faster.

  • Clunking noises – worn shock absorbers or bushings make noises over bumps.

  • Dipping under braking – car nose dives when you press the brake pedal.
    👉 These problems won’t fix themselves—suspension faults only get worse if left unchecked.

At Preston Autofix, our technicians inspect the full suspension system, including:

  • Shock absorbers & struts – key to comfort and stability.
