Time Out: Suspension Problems in SyracusePosted February 18, 2018 11:48 AMYour vehicle's suspension system has two jobs: to prevent the passengers from getting tossed around inside the vehicle every time it hits a bump in the road and to keep the tires firmly planted on the road around every corner and over every bump. If your suspension is in trouble, you often feel it in how your vehicle drives. You should get a check of your suspension system: if the vehicle pulls to one side or wanders, if the steering is erratic, if your ride isn't as smooth as it should be, or if your vehicle handles poorly. Uneven tire wear can also indicate worn parts in your suspension system. If your shocks are leaking oil then they definitely need to be replaced. All in all, if you don't feel in control when you're driving, go get your suspension inspected. S T Foreign Auto Service
On Board Diagnostics for Syracuse MotoristsPosted February 13, 2018 6:21 AMSome Syracuse vehicle owners wonder why S T Foreign Auto Service and other Syracuse auto repair shops charge a fee for vehicle diagnostics. Receiving a diagnostic charge at S T Foreign Auto Service for a tricky automotive problem shouldn't be a surprise. In the Syracuse area, automotive diagnostics can cover quite a range. If you hear a noise in your vehicle brakes when you slow down in rush-hour traffic on a busy NY road, you pull off at the next off-ramp and take a quick visual check. That is usually enough to know what needs to be done. If you're having an intermittent problem with your vehicle engine, however, a S T Foreign Auto Service diagnosis may be much more involved. There's a common misconception among NY drivers that the trouble code tells the S T Foreign Auto Service technician exactly what's wrong. They wonder why there is a diagnostic charge because the scanner quickly gave the diagnosis. In reality, it is not that easy and straightforward. The computer monitors many sensors throughout the vehicle. When one of these sensors has a reading that's out of parameters, the computer will record a trouble code and turn on the Check Engine light. Some diagnoses are quick and easy. Others are more involved, time-consuming and difficult. Of course S T Foreign Auto Service wants to figure out what's wrong with your vehicle and get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
