They're important to keep you safe on the road.

Your ball joints are an important component of your suspension system. The ball joint connects your control arms to the steering knuckle. This is what allows the suspension move up and down while allowing the wheels to turn left and right.


When your ball joint is worn out it can cause multiple issues including alignment problems that can cause tire wear and poor handling. In more extreme cases it can cause unstable handling conditions especially on rough roads and ruts. If they become to worn out they can break or come apart causing the suspension to collapse, this can cause damage and possibly a loss of control and an accident.


Questions about ball joints? We inspect them with every service to make sure you're safe on the road. Give us a call and let us take care of you.
