OEM VW and Saab Ball Joints
What Causes Bad Ball Joints?
Bad ball joints are a critical component of a vehicle’s suspension system, as they connect the control arms to the steering knuckles, enabling the wheels and suspension to move. A bad ball joint can cause significant safety and performance issues for your vehicle. Unfortunately, there are several reasons why ball joints in cars can break, including the following:
Wear and Tear
Simple wear and tear over time is among the most common causes of damaged ball joints. These components are constantly moving and under stress while a car is being driven. The metal parts of the joint may eventually deteriorate and lose their lubrication, causing the joint to loosen and wear with time.
Environmental Factors
These components can corrode and degrade more quickly in harsh environmental circumstances, such as exposure to moisture, road debris, and salt. This is particularly prevalent in regions with severe winters and a lot of road salt.
Overloading or Heavy Use
When a car is overloaded or put through extensive use, like towing, ball joints are put under higher strain. Its wear and deterioration may be hastened by excessive stress.
