Misaligned wheels could be causing premature wear on your tyres and suspension system. This will affect your vehicle’s handling, performance, and overall safety of your vehicle. Misaligned wheels can make you feel as though you are pulling to one side of the road, which is extremely dangerous and must be fixed quickly.

At Austech Motors, we use state-of-the-art vehicle-aligning equipment and technologies to correctly and accurately provide a wheel alignment, to ensure safe vehicle control. A wheel alignment involves measuring, analysing, and adjusting your vehicle’s steering and suspension angles. This is to ensure that the wheels are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other. At Austech Motors, we provide wheel alignments to all vehicles types, including Trucks & other heavy vehicles.

The suspension system of a vehicle is vital for its performance. Your vehicle’s suspension system ensures that your ride is comfortable and smooth. It aims to keep all four tyres on the ground always, to maximise the control you have with steering and braking. Thus, it is extremely important that your vehicle’s suspension is in great working order, to minimise unfortunate accidents due to poor control. Sometimes, suspension parts will become damaged or wear down, which causes friction against other moving parts.

The following situations are a result of a poor suspension system and misaligned steering:

• Poor handling of vehicle around corners
• Unusual tread wear on your vehicle’s tyres
• Dipping in a certain direction when braking
• Unusual noises from under your vehicle
• Vibrations of the steering wheel

Your suspension and steering systems may be the difference in preventing a devasting road accident.

If you experience any of the above situations, contact us or visit us at the Austech Motors workshop.
