Suspension Repairs in Iowa City & Cedar Rapids, IA

Professional Muffler Inc. is dedicated to making your ride as comfortable and relaxing as possible, and we know that your car's suspension system is responsible for this. The suspension system in all vehicles needs three main components—springs, struts, and shocks. The job of these parts is to keep you and your car safe from road hazards, including potholes, regular wear and tear, gravel, and other road debris, by assisting in dampening the impact felt by the car's body and frame from the tires.

Benefits of A Well Functioning Suspension System

Improved tire-to-road friction is one of the main benefits of a well-designed suspension system. Increased friction between moving parts provides more stable and pleasant steering and driving. You can drive more safely and confidently when your tires make greater contact with the road.
Your vehicle's suspension system also contributes to your pleasant drive. You and your passengers will experience far less jolting up and down on the road as a result of bumps and other road irregularities if you can reduce the amount of kinetic energy delivered to the cabin.
Additionally, suspension systems might aid in extending the reliability of your vehicle. By reducing the amount of energy transferred from bumps and potholes in the road, you will greatly extend the life of your vehicle's components. This means that the rest of your car's parts will survive longer.
