Springs

Coil Springs?

As you drive, car springs are constantly working to absorb vibrations when your vehicle moves over potholes and bumps in the road. These springs mean that you’ll have a smoother ride as they keep your suspension at a specific height. Within your car, you’ll find both front and rear coil springs for each wheel.

Broken coil spring symptoms

Over time, your vehicle is repeatedly putting strain on its coil springs meaning they can wear out. Also, if you overload your vehicle, this could cause the springs to be compressed to their maximum which has negative effects. A broken coil spring will cause your car to sit at an angle, which can lead to other components knocking or scraping against each other. As a result, you might hear knocking or clunking noises when you drive over uneven ground.
