Your car’s suspension system must be in good condition. Apart from just the up and down motion which suspension endures using springs and shock absorbers, there are other suspension components, which concern other types of motion, such as twisting, rubbing and sideways movement. Some of these will adversely affect your driving experience depending on their condition such as bushings, sway bars, torsion bars, wishbones, ball joints, to name a few. Properly calibrated and balanced suspension allows the wheels to compensate for these rapid changes in direction, keeping your wheels and tires as close to the road as possible even when the vehicle is changing direction. This compensation aspect of suspension is called handling, and it greatly affects your car’s ability to maneuver, especially at high speed, without losing traction. Worn suspension components may reduce the stability of the vehicle and reduce driver control, as well as accelerate wear on other suspension system components. Replacing worn or inadequate shocks and struts will help maintain good ride control, as they:
