Your questions,
answered.

Does suspension work need an alignment?+

Some repairs affect wheel alignment. The need for a check or adjustment depends on which components are changed and the manufacturer’s procedure.

What should I tell the technician about a noise?+

Note when it happens: over bumps, while turning, during braking or at a particular speed. These details help guide the inspection.
