It’s Going to Be a Bumpy Ride.

When you hit a pothole with your vehicle, it rocks the entire suspension system. This can cause a whole bunch of wear and tear on shocks and struts. Spotting damage to these necessary car parts can be challenging. How to spot what MAY need to be looked at is why you should stop in to A.J.’s Import Garage in Topeka.

Did you know that around the country, drivers pay approximately $3 billion a year for vehicle damage due to confrontations with potholes? This time of year, in Topeka when the temperature drops below 32°, the water standing on the pavement will freeze and expand, forcing the pavement to rise.

Don’t let a pothole ruin your winter driving experience in the Topeka area! If you suspect suspension problems with your foreign or domestic car call A.J.’s Import Garage at (785) 233-1000 or wobble into 501 S.W. Harrison in Topeka. Learn more about auto maintenance by visiting ajsimportgarage.com.
