Steering & Suspension Repair in Tavistock, ON

Restoring Vehicle Control, Stability and Ride Comfort

Steering and suspension components keep the tires in firm contact with the road, which is essential for safe handling and control. Schultz Automotive provides steering and suspension repair in Tavistock, ON for drivers throughout Oxford County. Our NAPA AutoPro technicians inspect each joint, linkage and damper to identify the actual cause of poor handling.

Symptoms of Worn Steering and Suspension Components

Shocks, struts, control arms, ball joints and tie rods wear gradually, so the decline in vehicle control often goes unnoticed. Worn parts also accelerate tire wear and extend stopping distances. The signs below call for a professional inspection.

  • Bouncing or swaying after bumps
  • Clunking or rattling over uneven pavement
  • Loose steering or wandering at highway speed
  • Vehicle pulling to one side
  • Uneven or cupped tire wear
  • Nose dive when braking

Replacing worn components early protects your tires and keeps the vehicle stable and predictable. Contact our technicians in Tavistock, ON when you first notice a change in handling.

Our Steering and Suspension Inspection Process

Our technicians raise the vehicle, check each component for play, leaks and wear, and compare the results with manufacturer specifications. You are shown what was found and receive a recommendation limited to the work your vehicle needs. Parts are replaced only after you approve the estimate.

  • Shock and strut inspection
  • Ball joint and control arm check
  • Tie rod and steering linkage service
  • Bushing and mount replacement
  • Wheel alignment after repair
  • Road test

Each repair finishes with a road test to confirm precise steering and a stable ride.

This was such a great experience! Besides an oil change, they washed my car & cleaned floor mats. They offered pick up at my house & delivered my vehicle back to my house. And the option to pay by e-transfer. Awesome. I will be going here for all my future automotive needs. Thanks again.

I had an issue with my car and they took it in immediately to diagnose the issue even though they were shorthanded for the week. They worked with me to find the problem and got me up and going and then followed up to make sure my car was running well. Great Job!
