Axle Inspection and Maintenance
Your vehicle's axle system is fundamental to its operation, responsible for transferring crucial power from the engine to your wheels while supporting your vehicle's entire weight. This complex system, including CV joints and driveshafts, ensures smooth power delivery while driving. When these components begin to fail, it not only affects your vehicle's performance but can severely compromise safety and lead to increased fuel consumption.
Symptoms of Axle and CV Joint Problems
A failing axle or CV joint often provides early warning signs that shouldn't be ignored. Watch for:
- Distinct clicking or popping sounds during turns
- Continuous vibration through your steering wheel
- Unusual clunking when shifting between drive and reverse
- Visible grease leaking near your wheels (indicates a damaged CV boot)
- Shuddering or vibrations that increase with acceleration
- Uneven or excessive tire wear
- Vehicle pulling to one side while driving
- Knocking sounds during sudden acceleration or deceleration
If you are noticing any of these symptoms while driving, you will want to have your car inspected as soon as possible. Regular inspections by our ASE-certified mechanics can identify these issues before they lead to complete failure. Using advanced diagnostic equipment, we thoroughly examine your entire axle system, including CV joints, boots, bearings, and supporting components. This comprehensive approach helps prevent unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs while ensuring your safety on the road.
