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.

These guys are awesome! I had a problem with a battery install, brought the car back and they replaced the battery free of charge. Great communication, helpful advice too!

Hunt Lewis

I had a really great experience here. Service was friendly and explained everything clearly and thoroughly. They also always maintained good communication throughout and the service was timely. I definitely see myself as a repeat customer.

Patty R

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

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.

Darryl Pullman

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

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

Great shop. Knowledgeable, trustworthy, kind staff. Fixed my car and gave helpful feedback on the things to keep an eye on. I will use them again and would recommend this shop to others.

Angela Kemling

I had my brakes replaced here based on a recommendation from a coworker. They were helpful, honest, and got it done in one day!

Kendra Allen

Jason helped fix multiple issues in my Toyota for $2000 less than what the dealer wanted. Jason and his team worked quickly and communicated clearly about issues that needed to be addressed. As long as Jason is there we’ll be bringing in our cars for service.

Greg Hibbard

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

This auto shop was great! They were so nice and helpful in everything they did. They diagnosed my problem quickly and replaced my battery very fast. Very inexpensive for the job performed and gave me quite a discount! Choose these guys they are the way to go!
