There are many signs that the suspension on your car is worn out and needs to be looked at by a mechanic. If your car is bouncing around on roads or bottoming out when you drive over bumps, you might want to get it looked at by the mechanics at Grapevine Lincoln.

Worn out suspension can also affect the steering, and you might find yourself fighting your car to keep it moving in a straight line. Ball joints, tie-rod ends, and bushing can all get worn out over time and require replacement. 

When the tires on your car do not have enough air, they can create a rougher ride while you are driving. However, your underinflated tires can also cost you money.

When your tires are underinflated, the edges of the sidewalls come into contact with the pavement. Since there is no tread on the sidewalls, these areas wear down more quickly, requiring you to buy tires more often.

However, replacing worn out tires is not the only extra expense underinflation causes. When your tires do not have enough air, they drag on the road. This dragging makes your engine work harder…

There are a number of things that drivers look for when they set out to find their next SUV. Squarely on that list are the design features and how they make the vehicle more appealing to own. The 2019 Lincoln MKC is a crossover SUV that comes with features that drivers can appreciate.

The 2019 MKC has a design sensibility that makes it stand out. Among its feature set is approach detection. 

If safety is a prime concern when you're looking for a new car, you'll be happy to know that the 2018 Lincoln MKX is designed with safety in mind. It has a number of standard features that can keep you protected in the event of a collision.

The Personal Safety System is included on all MKX builds. It includes dual-stage front airbags, energy-management retractors on the safety belts, and much more. 

Our team here at Grapevine Lincoln understands the importance of making an informed decision when selecting a new car. One of the common questions we get is the difference between front and rear wheel drive system.

A front-wheel drive can help with traction during rain and snow. Since it's situated under your engine, the added weight assists your vehicle with getting a grip. Rear-wheel drive systems have the advantage of offering balance to your vehicle. The weight is more evenly distributed, which means that you can have better handling. 

Leaky cars aren't something any car owner wants to think about. Unfortunately for many adults, they're a reality. If you've been noticing strange symptoms when you drive, it's possible that your car has an exhaust leak you need to have fixed.

Make sure you pay attention to vibrations in your steering wheel, for example. Coupled with a popping or hissing sound in your engine, this could indicate you have a serious exhaust leak that needs to be repaired by a professional mechanic.
