Why Choose Art of Maintenance for Suspension Service
We treat suspension work as a precision craft rather than a simple parts swap. Before we turn a single wrench, our technicians perform a detailed evaluation to ensure that a suspension service is the right move for your car’s specific needs. We look at the harmony between your shocks, struts, and steering links to make sure our solution provides a lasting fix, not just a temporary cushion. We believe that your car’s frame should work as a unified system, so we carefully inspect every bushing and connector to prevent old vibrations from ruining new parts. This approach ensures that your investment results in a ride that feels balanced and brand new.

How to Tell Your Car Needs an Inspection
It isn’t always obvious when your vehicle’s support system is wearing out, but your car will usually give you a few hints. If you start to notice any of these issues, it might be time to bring it in for a suspension service:
The car feels like it is pulling to one side even on flat roads
A car can feel like it’s pulling to one side on flat roads due to issues such as uneven tire pressure, misaligned wheels, worn suspension components, or a dragging brake on one side.
The car keeps bouncing long after you hit a bump
A car keeps bouncing long after hitting a bump because of worn or failed shock absorbers or struts, which can no longer properly dampen the spring’s motion and stabilize the vehicle.
You notice the vehicle "nose-diving" forward when you hit the brakes
A vehicle “nose-dives” forward when braking because worn shocks or struts, soft or sagging front springs, or uneven brake force allow excessive weight transfer to the front suspension.
You hear a loud clunking or knocking sound when turning
A loud clunking or knocking sound when turning can be caused by worn or damaged components such as CV joints, tie rod ends, ball joints, or loose suspension parts that shift under load.
Your tires are wearing down unevenly or appearing "cupped"
Tires wear unevenly or develop a “cupped” pattern due to worn shocks or struts, improper wheel alignment, unbalanced tires, or inconsistent tire pressure that causes irregular contact with the road surface.
The steering wheel feels loose or shakes while you drive
A steering wheel that feels loose or shakes while driving can be caused by unbalanced or misaligned wheels, worn tie rods or steering components, loose suspension parts, or uneven tire wear.

I brought my 2003 trailblazer in. They got me in right away. Which was awesome because it’s my work truck. They were able to finish up the repair that same day. I really appreciate the professionalism and quality of work.
Thanks guys
Referred here by a friend who has been having her truck fixed by Art of Maintenance for years. They were clear on their policies of sanitizing touch points–which at this time is important and was much appreciated. They were helpful on the phone, got me in next day, and had everything fixed up within a few hours. They provided great work that felt fair & friendly. I plan to come back here for any mechanical needs.
Great and fast service. Got me back on the road asap.
Had my jeep die and the got it in and iut the same day in time for me to go to wotk , great guys
External struggles made it hard for me to pick up and drop off my car, but they were incredibly patient and worked with me. Services were quick and efficient, with an itemized list of results from the check-in on my car (complete with pictures) and each service was completed very quickly compared to previous mechanics I have worked with. Will absolutely be coming back again for my next tune-up!
Very quick and professional service. Were very helpful and got me sorted out very quickly. Awesome place!!
I walked in to get a tire fixed with no appointment. Within 20 minutes they fixed my tire and didn’t charge me a penny. Totally cool folks who definitely know how to treat their customers and neighbors. I’m definitely going to hit them up next time I have a more serious auto issue.
Very helpful employees. Took my car in to have tires checked. They were understanding and quick on a busy day. I will be back again! Thanks, AoM!!
Quality service! Kevin and the staff were friendly & done in a timely manner. Will come back again!
Fast and friendly service. Thoroughly explained worked that needed and was in fact performed.
You know your car never breaks down on a good day but when my car broke down in Portland these guys helped make a bad day better true professionals they helped Comfort my wife and my dog. we were traveling out of town . We tried other shops in town and no one could take care of us the same day. I would have no problem using these guys again or recommending them thank you again to Kevin and James and the team at Art of Maintenance
Woke up with a flat tire drove straight here. They had me in and out before I could get my Starbucks order from next door. Excellent customer service. Thank you guys!
