Richmond Pothole Season: Evening Steering Noise Check Before It Gets Expensive

Evening drives can hide pothole impacts until you hear a fresh clunk or feel looseness in the steering wheel. In Richmond, repeated hits can knock suspension and steering parts out of spec, which then accelerates inner-edge tire wear. A quick inspection of tie rods, ball joints, and alignment angles can catch the problem before it turns into a larger repair bill. If your car drifts, vibrates, or makes noise over small bumps, schedule a check promptly. For a related alignment symptom overview, read this Richmond midday steering pull check.
