Sway Bar Links
The Basics Behind Sway Bar Link Replacement Services atGlenn Dale, Tire, Auto & Roadside Assist Auto Services
Connecting the wheels on opposite sides of the vehicle is a stabilizer bar called the sway bar.
The sway bar is charged with controlling “body roll” by distributing the weight of your vehicle to both sides of the suspension.
When your vehicle moves through a turn, the sway bar keeps the vehicle level by minimizing body roll through the transfer of vehicle weight to the outside wheels.
It also maintains solid contact with the surface of the road through the compression of the suspension components on the inside wheels.
Sway bar links are a crucial component in your vehicle’s suspension system.
The sway bar links are what connect the suspension to the sway bar and transfer the force of motion from the wheels to the axles.
When the vehicle turns or corners, the sway bar end links pull on the bar to resist body roll while stabilizing the force of motion and the weight of the vehicle.
Why Should You Have Sway Bar Link Replacement Services Performed atGlenn Dale, Tire, Auto & Roadside Assist Auto Services?
Because sway bar links are responsible for transferring the force of motion from the wheels to the sway bar and to the rest of the suspension system, if a sway bar end link is damaged, the controllability of your vehicle and the safety of your passengers are at risk.
While some sway bar links have bushing that can be replaced, other sway bar links require replacements upon wearing out.
Warning signs of a broken or bad sway bar link include clunks and squeaks.
Over-steering or excessive lean through turns are also symptoms of worn sway bar links, but they can also be signs of larger problems with your vehicle’s suspension system.
Do not let symptoms of bad sway bar links or other suspension components go untreated.
Little problems with suspension systems have the tendency to turn into larger problems and more expensive repairs if not repaired or replaced.
If you experience any of the above symptoms, allow our service staff to determine if a sway bar link replacement is right for you.

Customer Testimonials
We stand by our work.
The owner John is very knowledgeable and the whole staff is friendly. I came for an oil change and to have my tires serviced (rotation, alignment and balance) because I thought they needed it. John told me I didn’t need service to my tires and they rode very well; no need to spend the money on a service that wasn’t needed. We all know many establishments would try to push a service for a dollar so his honesty is appreciated. Reasonable pricing and great service. Highly recommend! Services: Tire rotations, Oil change

Since 2003 I have entrusted all my vehicular repairs and maintenance to John and his team at C & D Auto Service. In that time I have referred my family and friends to this shop. You are in safe and steady hands with John.

Ronnell FieldsGoogle ReviewI had slow leak from a nail puncture and I was told by another tire shop that run flat tires could not be fully patched. He said it would cost $75 for a temporary fix but he recommended replacing, so I bought another tire online. [...] Thomas did such great work that it was not a temp fix at all and basically let me know the other place did not know what they were talking about. I have had no issues with the tire and its been over 3 months. He also said the repair came with a lifetime warranty so this place is all good in my book. Highly recommend. Service: Tires
