Suspension Service

Your safety depends on how well your car stays on the road.

Professional suspension service keeps your tires on the ground and your steering steady, so you can drive your family around without worrying about car trouble.

We had them replace the engine on our 2002 Toyota Echo. It now runs like a charm, and they gave us a three year, 30,000 mile warranty on the engine and labor. We highly recommend Multnomah Automotive!

Warning Signals from Your Vehicle

When your car’s handling starts to fade, it can happen slowly over time. We recommend looking out for these red flags to decide if you need a suspension service soon:

A squeaking or groaning noise over a speed bump is often caused by worn or dry suspension bushings, loose or damaged shocks and struts, or friction in other suspension components that react under compression.

A “drifting” sensation when driving around corners can be caused by worn tires, poor wheel alignment, weak suspension components, or low tire pressure reducing the vehicle’s grip and stability.

A car that sags or sits lower in one corner is usually caused by a broken or worn spring, a failed shock or strut, or damaged suspension components that can no longer properly support the vehicle’s weight.

A steering wheel that is crooked while driving straight is typically caused by improper wheel alignment, uneven tie rod adjustment, or worn steering and suspension components that throw off the wheel’s centered position.

Feeling every small pebble as a major jolt is usually caused by overly stiff or worn suspension components—such as shocks, struts, or bushings—that fail to properly absorb and cushion road impacts.

Oily fluid leaking from shocks or struts usually indicates a damaged or worn seal, which allows hydraulic fluid to escape and reduces the suspension’s ability to absorb bumps.

Why Good Shocks and Struts Matter

A healthy car frame does more than just give you a soft seat. Here are the benefits:

Your car won’t “drift” or pull to one side.

You won’t have to buy new tires as often.

You can stop more quickly in an emergency.

Good shocks prevent other parts from breaking.

Everyone in the car will have a much smoother ride.

You’ll feel in total control of your vehicle.

During the last year I have taken my Dodge to Multnomah Automotive for both a major engine repair and a standard oil change. I felt respected and cared for both times and highly recommend this friendly neighborhood shop.

Signa Haygarth

Dude these guys are great. They’ve never overcharged in my experience, and do a thorough job. Shout out to Jason for keeping me updated with repairs.

Abraham Ross

Amazing service and great management. Jason was awesome and quickly found the issue in my tire. I was in and out in about 10 minutes and for only $20. 10/10 auto shop experience

Ryan Sweet

Wonderful and fast costumer service. Very accommodating and friendly. They take the time to explain the issues and are flexible with your schedule and time. Extremely reliable and trustworthy service and workers!

Madison Novacek

Had my starter go out. They were able to diagnose and replace within two days despite being extremely busy. They also provided a full inspection without being pushy or trying to upsale. Good honest work. Thanks!

Spencer Short

Jason was so kind and gave me great advice even though my car was at another shop. He’s honest and sincere, and knows how to get his customers back on the road.

Jo Foster

They are the best!!! They could’ve charged an arm and a leg, but didn’t. They are integral, and good people. I’m a teacher, and we had a hard week at home. Mike’s genuineness, and integrity, were very timely, and appreciated. We will go to the shop again and again.

James Sage

I love this place. The owner is straight up. This is an awesome shop. My repair was concise accurate. I trust them implicitly and it’s a drive for me AAA rated… Check them out Jason has your back.

The team here is fantastic. We had car troubles and they were fast and very honest about our options. They took detailed notes and photos about nest steps on repairs for our vehicle. We had such a great experience that they are now our permanent mechanics.
