Signs might be things to show your suspension is gradually wearing off and needs a repair.

Suspension is the system of tires, tire air, springs, shock absorbers and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels and allows relative motion between the two. Specifically, the suspension system maximises the friction between the tyres and the road to provide steering stability and good handling. The suspension system also provides comfort for passengers to limiting the impact of particular road conditions to not only the car, but the passengers inside. The suspension is the part that keeps your car’s body connected to the wheels.
Since the suspension is ground zero when it comes to poor roads, the parts wear out, and even break. If your car does not seem to ride like it used to, you may have a problem below.

The following signs might be things to show your suspension is gradually wearing off and needs a repair.

1. Damaged, "oily" shocks
If you look directly at the shocks or struts under the vechile, and they look greasy or oily, there's a good chance that they are leaking fluid and therefore aren't working properly.

2. Uneven tire treads
If you notice the tread is wearing down unevenly on your tires, or if you notice balding spots, this means that the suspension isn't holding the car evenly, and therefore it is putting uneven amounts of pressure on the tires.

3. Dips or "nose dives" when stopping
When the shocks are worn out, you're likely to feel the vehicle body lurching forward and downward nose-first when you apply the brakes firmly.

4. Car rides roughly
When every bump causes your vehicle body to "bounce." A rough ride is an obvious sign that your vehicle's suspension needs work.

5. Drifting or pulling during turns
With a bad suspension system, you'll often feel the vehicle "drift" or "pull" when you're turning. This increases your risk of a rollover. If you feel this sensation while turning, it's time to take the car to a trusted auto repair shop for servicing. Car Parts Nigeria provide this services for you with our trusted field mechanics.

6. Try the "bounce test"
If you suspect your suspension is going bad (perhaps due to one or more of the symptoms we mentioned above), try this simple test. With the car in "park," press down on the front of the vehicle with all your weight, "bounce" it a few times, then release. Do it again on the rear of the vehicle. If the car continues to rock or bounce more than 2-3 times after you release it, the suspension is wearing out and it needs a change.
