Our suspension service covers everything from worn shocks and struts to torn bushings, failing control arms, and noisy ball joints.

Why Metro Detroit driving shapes our approach
Michigan winters with road salt and freeze–thaw cycles create the potholes and corrosion that most quickly damage suspension parts. Local commuters—from those heading into Troy or Dearborn to families running errands in Livonia and Novi—face a mix of highways and older residential streets that accelerate wear on shocks, struts and steering joints. At Garrett Auto we set repair priorities based on that reality: corrosion-resistant parts where needed, robust mounts for rough roads, and alignments after suspension work so your vehicle tracks true through seasonal changes.
A straightforward, professional service experience
Our team focuses on clear communication and trustworthy workmanship. You’ll get a thorough inspection, a plain-language explanation of findings, and an honest recommendation for repairs or monitoring. Our certified technicians follow manufacturer guidelines and use quality replacement parts, so whether you’re a local commuter or managing a small fleet, you can count on Garrett Auto for dependable results and respectful service.
