The Importance of Suspension & Steering Maintenance
Your suspension and steering systems work together to provide stability, control, and comfort. Over time, components wear down, bushings age, and alignment shifts — affecting everything from tire wear to safety.
Proper maintenance ensures:
A smoother, quieter ride
Improved steering response and handling
Reduced vibration and tire wear
Better stability during braking and cornering
Optimal safety and comfort on every drive
Ignoring these systems can lead to uneven tire wear, drifting alignment, or even loss of control — issues that are easily preventable with regular inspection and maintenance.
Suspension & Steering Services We Provide
At Hash Imports, we service all types of import suspension and steering systems — from traditional coil-over setups to adaptive air and electronic systems.
Suspension Diagnostics & Inspection
We perform a complete system evaluation, checking for worn shocks, struts, ball joints, bushings, and mounts. We also inspect for fluid leaks in hydraulic or electronically adjustable dampers common in European vehicles.
Shock & Strut Replacement
Worn shocks and struts reduce ride comfort and braking stability. We replace them using OEM or equivalent parts to restore proper damping and handling — tailored to your vehicle’s suspension design.
Control Arm, Ball Joint & Bushing Replacement
These critical components connect your wheels to the chassis. Over time, they wear and cause clunking noises, steering pull, or uneven tire wear. We replace them precisely to manufacturer torque and alignment specs.
Power Steering & Rack Repair
If your steering feels heavy or inconsistent, you could have issues with your steering rack, tie rods, or fluid system. We service both hydraulic and electric power steering systems, ensuring precise steering feedback without noise or fluid leaks.
Alignment Check & Adjustment
After any major suspension repair, alignment is crucial. We partner with professional alignment facilities to ensure your vehicle’s suspension geometry meets exact factory standards.
Our Oil & Filter Change Process
Our ASE-certified technicians follow manufacturer-recommended procedures for every oil service:
01
Engine Oil Drain & Refill
We remove all old oil, replace the drain plug gasket (when applicable), and refill with OEM-specified synthetic or hybrid-compatible oil suited to your vehicle’s exact requirements.
02
OEM-Quality Filter Replacement
We install manufacturer-approved oil filters that provide proper flow and filtration for your engine’s design — ensuring clean lubrication and reliable oil pressure.
03
Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection
Every oil service includes a complimentary inspection of your fluids, belts, hoses, brakes, and tires for early detection of potential issues.
04
Oil Life Monitor Reset
We use factory diagnostic tools to reset your service indicator, ensuring your maintenance schedule stays accurate and up to date.
05
Quality Assurance Test
Before returning your vehicle, we check for leaks and verify oil pressure and levels to confirm everything meets factory specifications.

Suspension & Steering FAQs – Hash Imports of Fishers, IN
Do you specialize in suspension and steering repair for import vehicles?
Yes — Hash Imports services only European and Asian vehicles, including Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, Toyota, Honda, Subaru, Mazda, and Volkswagen. Our technicians understand the complexity of advanced suspension systems like adaptive damping, air suspension, and electronic steering assist used in these vehicles.
What are common signs that my suspension or steering system needs attention?
If you experience any of the following, schedule an inspection soon:
- Clunking or rattling noises over bumps
- Steering wheel vibration or pull
- Uneven tire wear
- Excessive bouncing or body roll
- Leaking shocks or struts
- A rough, drifting, or unstable ride
These symptoms indicate worn components or misalignment that can affect safety and tire life.
How often should I have my suspension inspected?
We recommend a full suspension and steering inspection at least once a year or every 12,000 miles. If you frequently drive on rough roads or notice any change in handling, it’s best to have your system checked sooner.
What’s the difference between shocks and struts?
Both control motion and absorb bumps, but they’re not interchangeable.
- Shocks (dampers) are standalone components that control suspension movement.
- Struts are structural — they combine a shock absorber with a spring and serve as part of your vehicle’s chassis support.
Our technicians identify which system your vehicle uses and service it accordingly.
How long do shocks and struts last?
On most imports, shocks and struts last between 50,000 and 75,000 miles, depending on driving conditions. European models with adaptive or electronically adjustable dampers may need service sooner if leaks or warning lights appear.
What causes uneven tire wear or vibration while driving?
Uneven tire wear can be caused by worn suspension components, misalignment, or unbalanced tires. Vibrations at higher speeds can point to suspension or steering issues — or sometimes bent wheels or tires out of round. We diagnose the cause before recommending repairs.
Can you repair or recalibrate electronic steering systems?
Yes. Many modern vehicles use electric power steering (EPS) instead of hydraulic systems. We use factory-level diagnostic equipment to recalibrate steering angle sensors, correct EPS faults, and restore proper steering assist.
Do you service air suspension or adaptive damping systems?
Absolutely. We service air suspension systems (AIRMATIC, 4-Corner, etc.) and adaptive damping systems used in brands like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Lexus. We repair or replace air struts, compressors, sensors, and control modules using OEM-quality components.
Will I need a wheel alignment after suspension repairs?
Yes — anytime suspension components like control arms, struts, or tie rods are replaced, a wheel alignment is necessary. It ensures correct camber, caster, and toe settings, improving handling and extending tire life.
Why should I bring my vehicle to Hash Imports for suspension or steering service?
Because your vehicle’s suspension system is part of what makes it uniquely European or Japanese — precise, balanced, and engineered for performance. At Hash Imports, you’ll get:
- Factory-trained technicians with import expertise
- OEM-quality parts and fluids
- Advanced diagnostic tools for electronic and hydraulic systems
