Suspension Spring Repair available at LTC Tyres and Exhausts
When a car strikes a pothole at speed, the sudden impact can crack or snap a suspension spring. Over time, repeated pothole hits weaken the metal, increasing the chance of failure without much warning.
Why broken springs are dangerous:
-
A damaged or broken spring can shift out of position and press directly against the tyre
-
In severe cases, the sharp end of the spring can puncture or slice through the tyre
-
A sudden tyre blowout can lead to loss of control, especially at high speeds
-
Suspension failure affects steering, braking, and vehicle stability
-
Broken springs can also damage brake lines, wheel arches, and shock absorbers
Warning signs after hitting a pothole:
-
Clunking or knocking noises from the wheel area
-
Uneven ride height (one corner sitting lower)
-
Pulling to one side while driving
-
Vibrations or poor handling
Ignoring pothole-related damage can turn a minor issue into a major safety hazard. Regular inspections—especially after hitting a pothole—are essential to prevent a broken spring from becoming a tyre-destroying, accident-causing failure.
