Suspension and steering problems in Suzuki APVs can include:

Worn-out Suspension Components: The shocks, struts, and bushings can wear out over time, leading to poor ride quality, noise, and instability. If you notice abnormal noises like clunking o r squeaking, replacing these parts is necessary.
Steering Vibration o r Noise: This may indicate issues with the steering rack o r worn-out steering components. A steering wheel that vibrates o r produces noise might need an inspection of the steering column, rack, o r alignment.
Misalignment: Improper wheel alignment can cause the vehicle to pull to one side o r result in uneven tire wear. It can be fixed by aligning the wheels at a service center.
Ball Joint o r Tie Rod Failure: If there’s abnormal steering feel o r noise, the ball joints o r tie rods might be worn out and require replacement.
Prevention & Resolution: Regularly check and replace suspension components, get the steering system inspected, and ensure proper wheel alignment to prevent handling and comfort issues.
