Description of Axle & CV Joint Repair
Your vehicle’s axle and CV joint components are integral to the performance and drivability of your vehicle. Front wheel drive vehicles use CV joints on the front axles. CV joints allow the axle to bend and change while accommodating the bounce of the wheels. The axle bears the weight of the vehicle while also being strong enough to sustain the forces from braking and accelerating. Over time and through normal use, your vehicle’s axle and CV joint components may require maintenance or replacement services.
Benefits of Axle & CV Joint Repair
There are signs to look for when determining when to schedule an inspection of your vehicle’s front axle, rear axle, and CV joints. Clunking or clicking noises are signs that a CV joint needs replacement. Vibrations during acceleration may indicate an axle issue depending on the layout of your vehicle. CV joints can go bad when the grease leaks out of a damaged CV boot. There are various determinants for how quickly your vehicle’s axle and CV joint components will degrade over time.
