Steering and Suspension Service

If you were to let go of the steering wheel, would your vehicle continue to track straight, or would it swerve to the side of the road? When you stop, does your vehicle stop straight, or do you feel a pull in the steering wheel? Are you confident that your vehicle would handle safely in an emergency, or do you drive with extra caution out of fear? Have you had a steering and suspension service recently?

The answers to these questions are important for Fairfax area drivers. Those drivers know that proper steering is critical to their safety, and they know they can rely on Fairfax Auto Repair for all their steering and suspension service and repairs.
