What Causes Uneven Tire Wear and How Is It Related to Suspension?
March 11, 2025
If your tires are wearing down unevenly, it could mean something is wrong with your car.
One of the biggest reasons this happens is a problem with the suspension system, which helps keep your tires in the right position on the road.
When the suspension is out of alignment, some parts of the tires may wear out faster than others. Worn-out shocks or struts can make the tires bounce too much, causing uneven wear. If any suspension parts are loose or damaged, they can change how weight is spread across the tires. This leads to bald spots or rough edges. Even low tire pressure can make the problem worse if the suspension isn’t working right.
Taking care of your suspension helps your tires last longer and keeps your ride smooth. If you notice uneven tire wear, it’s a good idea to have it checked before it leads to bigger problems. At David’s Automotive Repair, we can inspect your suspension and tires to keep you safe on the road. Call us at 972-625-1836

While most people think cold kills batteries, extreme heat actually wears them down faster. High temperatures can cause fluid inside the battery to evaporate, weaken its charge, and shorten its lifespan. If your battery is more than a few years old, or if your car is slow to start, now’s the time to get it tested. Nobody wants to be stuck with a dead battery in a hot parking lot or on the side of the road. At David’s Automotive Repair, we offer quick and accurate battery testing to give you peace of mind before the next heatwave rolls in.

Belts keep systems like your alternator and power steering working. Hoses carry important fluids like coolant and help your engine stay at the right temperature. Over time, heat and wear can cause them to crack , fray , or leak . If a belt breaks or a hose bursts while you’re driving, it could lead to engine damage or even leave you stuck on the side of the road. That’s why it’s smart to have them checked regularly—especially before long trips or hot summer days. If you’re unsure about the condition of your belts and hoses, we’re here to help with a quick check. Call 972-625-1836 to make a reservation to have your belts and hoses inspected by a certified technician.

High temperatures can cause fluids to thin out , break down faster, or even evaporate —putting your car at risk for overheating or part failure. If your coolant is low, your engine can overheat.
