Regular Mechanical Inspections

Today’s cars are often exceedingly more reliable and comfortable than yesterdays think back to the Pinto but they are also more complex. An amateur’s glance under the hood is no longer a match for an AutoSmart professional’s routine inspection. With years of experience under our tool belts, we have the foresight to help you avoid auto troubles down the road while regularly mechanical inspections will enhance and extend the life of your vehicle.

With our extensive auto repair knowledge, our team of certified professional technicians is able to handle both minor maintenance and major repairs.

Your steering system is your direct line of control to the road. If you can’t steer accurately, your vehicle is a major safety hazard! At Autosmart, we are trained and equipped to fix all of your steering problems.

We can replace worn-out tie rod ends and steering racks, swap out failing power steering pumps, and replace leaking steering fluid or hoses. Maintaining your steering system is essential to prevent complete loss of control, rapid tire wear, and costly roadside breakdowns.

Stop on into Autosmart if your vehicle is drifting to one side, or if you notice:

• A tight, stiff, or heavy steering wheel that is difficult to turn.
• A loose or wandering steering wheel with too much “play” or delayed response.
• Whining, groaning, or screeching noises when you turn the wheel.
• A vibrating or shaking steering wheel, especially when driving at highway speeds.
• Puddles of pink, red, or clear fluid leaking from the front of your vehicle.

Any difficulty directing your vehicle or a noisy wheel is a sure sign your steering is in need of some Autosmart care.

Your vehicle’s suspension system is what keeps you safely on the road and in control. If your suspension fails, your ride becomes dangerous and unpredictable! At Autosmart, we are trained and equipped to handle all of your steering and suspension problems.

We can replace worn-out shocks and struts, swap out damaged control arms and ball joints, and service your springs and bushings. Proper suspension maintenance is critical to avoid uneven tire wear, expensive component failures, and dangerous handling issues.
