Your Suspension does more than give you a smooth ride

We’ve all been there—hitting a pothole that feels like it might swallow the car whole, or feeling every tiny pebble in the road vibrating through the steering wheel. While we often associate our car’s suspension strictly with a "cloud-like" ride, it is actually one of the most critical safety systems in your vehicle.
At DeBoer's Auto, we're proud to partner with TechNet Professional, and we want to ensure your drive is as safe as it is smooth. That’s why we are excited to announce our latest promotion: Get up to $75 back on qualifying steering and suspension service and installation from February 1, 2026, through March 31, 2026.



More Than Just a Comfy Seat
It’s a common misconception that shocks and struts are only there to keep you comfortable. In reality, your suspension system has three vital jobs that go far beyond ride quality:

Tire-to-Road Contact: For your brakes to work and your steering to respond, your tires must stay firmly planted on the ground. Worn suspension allows tires to "bounce," meaning you lose traction exactly when you need it most.

Stopping Distance: Believe it or not, bad shocks can increase your braking distance by up to 20%. When you hit the brakes, a solid suspension prevents the front of the car from "diving," keeping the weight distributed evenly for a quicker stop.

Protecting Other Parts: A shaky suspension puts undue stress on your tires (causing uneven wear) and can damage your wheel bearings and steering rack over time. Investing in suspension now saves you from much more expensive repairs later.

Rebate Details
If your car has been leaning into corners, "nose-diving" during stops, or simply feeling a bit bouncy, now is the perfect time to visit us. 

Depending on your repair total, you can claim a significant rebate:
$25 Rebate on repairs of $250 – $499.99
$50 Rebate on repairs of $500 – $749.99
$75 Rebate on repairs of $750 or more

Don’t let a bumpy ride compromise your safety. Visit us today to get an inspection.
