Why Suspension Maintenance Matters

Improves Handling & Control

A well-maintained suspension system ensures precise steering, reduces body roll and provides a smoother drive.

Prevents Uneven Tyre Wear

Suspension issues can cause tyres to wear unevenly, affecting grip, comfort and efficiency.

Helps Ensure MOT Compliance

Suspension faults are a common cause of MOT failure, but regular maintenance helps you avoid this.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do EVs and hybrids wear suspension parts faster?

They can, because EVs are often heavier due to the battery. This extra weight can increase wear on shocks, springs and bushes.

What are signs of suspension problems?

A bumpy ride, uneven tyre wear, knocking noises, or the car sitting lower on one side.

Can suspension issues affect range?

Yes. If the suspension is worn or alignment is out, the car has to work harder, which can reduce efficiency.

How often should suspension be checked?

At least once a year, or sooner if you notice changes in how the car handles.

Can any garage work on EV suspension?

Yes, suspension work is mechanical, but the vehicle should still be handled by technicians familiar with EV safety procedures.
