Schedule Buick Suspension Repair in Atlanta, Georgia

The auto suspension system is critical for proper steering, stopping, and stability. It is what connects your wheels to your vehicle, controls handling, and delivers a smooth ride. Your suspension has a lot of joints and pivot points that allow your wheels to move up and down over bumps and turn as you steer. These parts include ball joints, tie rod ends, the pitman, idler arms, and the control arm bushing, and they will wear out over time.

When a joint or other part is worn out, the suspension parts don’t fit together as tight as they should. Handling and steering will have a loose feel, and you may hear strange noises. Your tires will also wear unevenly as they bounce off-kilter down the road.

McCullough NAPA Auto Care staffs ASE Certified technicians with the experience and technology to properly diagnose any suspension issues you may be experiencing with your Buick. We’ve been in business since 1969 and have ample experience repairing and replacing suspension systems for any Buick model, including the Encore, Envista, Enclave, and older models.

    Great customer service! Eric and team did an awesome job coordinating their busy schedule with the schedule of my girlfriend and myself so that we would have a car during the work week and then trade off cars when the other was ready. They are extremely friendly and it felt like they had us as the customer in mind. Highly recommend!

    Very respectful, honest, and professional. I was having issues with my headlights, and they fixed it for a reasonable price. They do a lot to ensure that you have a positive experience, and that you're not wasting your money on unnecessary parts or repairs. Top notch service, A+!

  • This place has fantastic service times and an extremely knowledgeable staff. First time I went was for an emergency tire change and it went even more smoothly than I would have ever thought possible. Definitely recommend for any/all vehicle maintenance.

    I had a check engine light on Saturday afternoon, ended up being an engine coil pack needing to be replaced. It was obviously super busy and I knew I would need to leave it until Monday to get looked at. Staff was very informative and communication was excellent. Got it looked at Monday and ordered necessary part to come in the next day. Went ahead and did the spark plugs as well since I was nearing 60k miles. Picked it up after lunch with no issues. Seems like they do really well with the small space provided and very busy area right off 285

    Able to fix issue with my 2011 truck other shops could not address- very hard to diagnose mechanical issue another reputable shops couldn’t figure out. Good prices, done on time, and with expert mechanics. Will have them work on all of my vehicles and highly recommended. Support a family owned business for a change!

    I was so impressed with these guys!! Family business and the guys are professional, efficient, and personable. They got my part quickly and fit me in so I could come while my kids were at school. They went the extra mile (no pun intended) to consult with another auto body shop to make sure the repair was stable. I will be coming back for all future auto needs and will recommend them widely.

  • Eric was amazing from start to finish. I chose this shop for my repair based on previous reviews & I'm glad I did. He made sure to, in my opinion, go above and beyond with his politeness, as well as helping to make the process smooth and to try to save me as many coins as he could, while still getting done what was needed. Very happy with this visit

    I know for me one hard thing about choosing a mechanic is brushing off all previous notions I have about mechanics Potentially not treating my car how they would treat their own car. This place has done more than exceed my expectations. I got a phone call for every update, I got a thorough description of what was to be done and what was wrong, not only that, but where the dealership said it would take them two weeks to fix my car, these guys did it in less than 24 hours. I have never been happier to spend $300 in my life. Anything I need in the future, you can be sure I’ll bring it here.

    I own and automotive repair business in Jacksonville, but my wife lives in Atlanta and needed tires for her car, so I know good service and fair pricing in this industry. I chose McCullough because of their good reviews and they did not disappoint. They were very professional and took good care of my wife. I would highly recommend them and will continue to use them for her service needs.

    I received great service from this location! I called them about replacing a serpentine belt and they got it done for me the very next morning. It was quick, and cheaper than some other places that I had called for the same service. Eric and his team did a great job, and they were very nice! I will definitely return for any other auto repair I may need in the future.

    We have been depending on McCullough's at least since 1997, when we purchased a home only a few blocks away, walking distance really. Had our emissions test a few days ago and want to acknowledge Jack, who completed the tests quickly. I asked him to determine why the backup camera was not in the proper position. It took a bit of time and ingenuity to get everything right. Thanks Jack, for the excellent service.

    Brian and the team were fantastic with handling my issue. In fact they discovered a major error which occurred when I had my last oil change done at a quick oil change place, which turned out to be the cause of my issue. They took pics of it and wrote out an explanation for me to give to the previous oil chance place. Because of their extra effort, I am getting reimbursed for the error. I highly recommend Brian and the team!

    Eric has been my service manager for years. He is always professional and easy to deal with. He goes out of his way to take care of your needs and makes accommodations to the customer when needed. They will ferry me and my car to and from their shop (I live within blocks) and I appreciate that very much. Everyone at McCullough is nice, friendly and helpful.

    Came in for emissions and they exceeded my expectations! Saw headlight out, replaced it. Saw no oil sticker, checked it and put a little in it until i can get back in for change. While waiting you could tell these guys really care about their customers and the safety of their vehicles. Definitely will be coming back here!

  • My vehicle was on the verge of breaking down while I was in Sandy Springs for work last week (I live in a different town), and my boyfriend had determined that it was a problem with the alternator. He helped me find McCulloch Auto Care, which was right down the street. We'd noticed the good reviews, and we took a chance! The staff is super friendly, professional, and kind. They were able to confirm our suspicions about my car's specific issues, and took us as soon as they could. I was so impressed with their customer service. They really went above and beyond to meet my repair needs, had a fair price, and worked quickly to repair the issue. I almost wish I lived closer just so that I could have my car serviced here more often! Great family owned business.

    I may have written one other recommendation in my of 50 years, but after doing business with Eric McCullough for 35 of those years it is time to write another one. He maintained and serviced my auto's, my wife, kids and employees for 32 of those 35 years. He has stood behind the work on everything he and his employees have done. He operates his business with great honesty and integrity. I highly recommend doing business. with McCullough

Signs Your Buick Needs Suspension Repair or Replacement

Shocks and struts are part of a vehicle’s suspension system and help to stabilize movements. Shocks and struts also provide control when you turn, accelerate or ride on uneven surfaces. Shocks are individual components of the suspension system, while struts are a major structural component of the chassis and suspension system.

You may wonder how to tell if your suspension system needs repair or if your shocks and struts need replacement. Here are 3 signs that your Buick’s suspension system, shocks, or struts, need repair or replacement. 

1 – Buick Bounces As You Drive

A strut’s primary job is to control your vehicle’s body motion, which includes bouncing. Struts are designed to absorb the up-and-down, side-to-side movements associated with braking, turning, and driving on rough pavement. It is normal for struts to wear down over time. You may need to replace your struts if you notice a certain softness in how your car handles or if your Buick is generally more bouncy than it once was. Pay extra attention to how your front end handles going over bumps. Too much bounce is a sign you need to replace your struts.

2 – Clunking, Knocking, and Other Noises

When your vehicle moves uncontrollably, specific suspension components may come into contact with each other with more force than they’re designed to. This can lead to worn-out struts, excessive noise, and extra wear on your suspension system. If sounds like repeated clunking, knocking, or banging can be heard while your suspension is engaged, that is a sign you should replace your struts. Driving on a bad strut can damage other areas of the suspension system, so it’s crucial to replace bad struts as soon as you notice regular worrisome noises.

3 – Uneven, Worn-Out Tires

Bad struts won’t be able to keep your tires in constant contact with the road. This will make your car bounce or float as you drive, creating uneven wear patterns on the tread of your tires since they aren’t touching the ground one complete rotation at a time. If your tire tread shows spotty and inconsistent, rather than the wear around the entire perimeter of the tire, that indicates that your struts are failing.
