When you turn your vehicle at high rates of speed, it can generate significant sideways forces on your car. If your vehicle did not have a suspension system absorbing a great deal of that energy, your car would be much harder to control. Conventional suspension systems work with a series of springs and steel leafs, while newer or higher-end vehicles can have suspension systems that work with magnets. We are able to service both types here at our Volvo service center in Chamblee.
Turning your vehicle on the highway can seem easy, but remember it weighs thousands of pounds, and suddenly redirecting that energy can cause all sorts of control problems. The suspension system absorbs flexes when this energy reaches it, diminishing the amount that causes your vehicle to swerve or bounce greatly.
Suspension systems with worn or broken parts can be dangerous and uncomfortable to drive. If you have noticed increased handling problems, bring your car to Dyer & Dyer Volvo for a suspension check today.
